我國新學制，九年一貫課程之精神，在於培育出具有預測未來、理智判斷、高創造力、不斷學習、反應迅速、解決問題…等能力的新世代公民。而STS（Science，Technology＆Society）科學教育的教學目標之一，就是在於培養學生的創造力和解決問題的能力，所以只要能將STS教學落實在新學制的課程中，便能達成我國九年一貫教育改革的課程目標。
本研究之目的鑑於九年一貫課程的實施，因此想藉由此研究來探討將STS教學理念融入國中課程中，對於國中生在創造力、和解決問題能力方面會有何影響。
過去在對國中生所作的STS教育研究中，許多研究都是受限於時間太短，以至於無法作較長時間的觀察，所得到的推論也較受大眾的質疑。因此，本研究之實驗方法是將STS融入教學之時間延長為一個學期，希望藉由本研究所作出來的結果，更具實驗意義和參考價值。
本研究之實驗對象為台北市某國中三年級「小班教學精神實驗班」之學生，因並非隨機取樣之樣本，故實驗結果不能作過度推論。
研究結果以共變數分析方法得知實驗組學生在創造力測驗－「威廉斯創造性思考活動」和解決問題能力測驗－「托尼非語言智力測驗」上的得分均顯著（p＜.05）高於對照組的學生。
根據研究結果，我們可以得知，將STS教學理念融入國中課程中，對於培養國中生的創造力及解決問題能力是相當有幫助的。這對於九年一貫的課程革新是一個相當正面的鼓勵。

The essence of Taiwan new educational system, Grade 1-9 Curriculum, is to nurture the new century’s citizens with capabilities of future-divination, intellect judgment, high-creativity, continuous-learning, quick reaction, problem-solving, and so on . One of the STS（Science，Technology＆Society）science education’s teaching targets is to nurture stuendents’ ability of creativity and problem-solving . So if we can include STS science education in new educational curriculum , we can achieve the goal of Grade 1-9 Curriculum.
In view of the practice of Grade 1-9 Curriculum , this research focuses on the influence on students’ capabilities of creativity and problem-solving when the STS science education’s teaching spirit is inserted into junior high school’s curriculums .
In the past , many STS science education which study on junior high school students’ behavior were limited to short period time. Hence, the inferences from these researches were suspected by people . Therefore, this research extends the period of teaching activity to one semester , and hopes the result can be of more experimental meaning and reference value.
The subject of this research is targeted on the third grade students with The Spirits of Small Class Instruction in one particular junior high school in Taipei . Students are not choiced randomly , hence the experimental result wouldn’t be over inferred .
The result from this research’s by using Analysis of Covariance（ANCOVA）, the students in experimental form significantly get higher grades than the students in contrasting form（p＜.05）in the Williams Creativity Test（Creativity Assessment Packet，CAP）and the the test of problem-solving（Test of Nonverbal Intelligence, TONI）.
According to the analysis result , if the STS science education’s teaching spirit is put into junior high school’s curriculums , it will be helpful to nurture junior high school students’ capacity of creativity and problem-solving .This result is a positive inspiring for Grade 1-9 Curriculum’s reform.
