本研究旨在探討高中職工業類科，有關一般共同科目中的美術課程之教學現況，透過問卷調查方式進行分析研究。主要探討層面包括美術教學之師資、設備、行政支援、課程教材、教學策略、教學方式、學生學習反應、學生的美術素養等現況。
本研究主要結論，摘述如下：
一、公立高職，以非美術科系畢業而兼代美術教學之比例偏高。
二、美術教師之進修意願殷切（整體有效樣本皆填答有意願進修）。
三、美術教師最希望進修的項目為電腦多媒體研習。
四、公、私立高職大多數學校未設置美術專業教室。
五、美術教學軟體呈普遍不足現象。
六、高職工科學生在美術課之學習動機是強烈的。
七、高職工科學生對美術設備之使用情形，滿意程度偏低。
八、美術素養不足，尤對近代本土藝術家缺乏認識。
九、在美術教材方面對本土文化、傳統藝術等層面之介紹，有待補強。
十、就讀不同科（群）別的學生，在美術學習現況及反應或美術素養方面，皆達顯著差異。美術教師應活用教學法，了解學生個別差異，進行教學。
十一、建議教師應隨資訊科技進步，運用電腦輔助教學媒材於美術教學，如電腦網路、電腦多媒體 (CD-ROM; video-CD)，以獲取藝文資訊或進行美術鑑賞教學，以提昇學生學習興趣，拓展藝文視野。
十二、多元文化觀的教育理念如何落實於藝術教育之教學，乃學校與美術教師宜共同努力之方向。

This study is designed to investigate the teaching of fine art courses as a component of general education curriculum for industrial programs of academic high and vocational high schools. Questionnaire survey method was used to collect and analyze information. The major investigated current conditions include fine art teachers, equipment, administrative support, curriculum and teaching materials, teaching strategies, teaching methods, learning reactions of students, and fine art cultivation of students.
The major conclusions of this study are listed as follows:
1. In public vocational high schools, there is a high percentage of fine art teachers that have not graduated with a fine art major.
2. Fine art teachers are eager to pursue related further education. (The answer to the question by the whole effective sample was unanimously positive.)
3. Computer and multimedia is the item most anticipated by fine art teachers as the major of further education.
4. Most public and private vocational high schools do not have a special classroom for fine art.
5. Most schools do not have sufficient fine art teaching software.
6. Students of industrial programs at vocational high schools are highly motivated to study fine art courses.
7. Students of industrial programs at vocational high schools are generally unsatisfied with the utilization of fine art equipment.
8. Students of industrial programs at vocational high schools are weak in fine art cultivation; they are especially ignorant of recent indigenous artists.
9. With respect to fine art teaching materials, the introduction of such aspects as indigenous culture and traditional art should be strengthened.
10. With respect to fine art learning and learning reactions or cultivation of fine art of students, there exist significant differences along the line of departments (groups). Fine art teachers should understand individual differences of students and flexibly, appropriately apply teaching methods to achieve the best results.
11. This study suggests that teachers keep up with information technology and apply CAI media, for example computer network and computer multimedia (CD-ROM; Video-CD), to fine art teaching so as to obtain art & literature information or to conduct fine art appreciation teaching. This is designed to increase students' interest in learning and to broaden their vision of art and literature.
12. Schools and fine art teachers should have the vision and take actions to incorporate educational ideas of Multicultural perspective into the teaching of fine art courses.
