  • 本研究旨在探討我國自八十六年修正通過「特殊教育法」後,台北市立國民中小學校身障班在經費運用,是否有績效。
    探討問題包括:
    一、學校對年度特教經費分配運用,支援教學是否滿意而有績效。
    二、學校身障班教師,對學校經費支援教學活動是否滿意而有績效。
    三、學生家長,對學校提供學習環境是否滿意而有績效。
    本研究方法採問卷調查及深度訪談調查法。問卷調查取樣對象,依台北市八十九會計年度(民88.07.01-民89.12.31)市立國民中小學校年度特教經費在350萬元以上學校行政人員(校長80人、輔導主任114人、會計主任68人、特教組長122人)、特教教師(512人)、特教學生家長(499人),以隨機取樣方式,進行問卷調查,調查結果以百分比、卡方檢驗,進行統計分析;同時深度訪談特教學者、特教行政業務主管、熱忱特教工作者,進行深度調查訪問。
    根據研究,主要發現如下:
    一、校長、主任、組長對整體特教經費運用,支援教學滿意而有績效。
    二、經費編列
    (一)採班級數作編列經費基本數及器材維修費運用,會計主任、特教組長較低滿意及保留態度外,其他行政人員較高滿意度比率。
    (二)對校園無障礙設施經費統編在教育局,學校行政人員及家長認為運用較不方便。
    (三)對政府訂定標準公式編列特教經費,多數行政人員較傾向保留態度,待相關單位進一步研究。
    三、教師對經費支援教學需要,多數教師較保留態度(無意見30%),待相關單位進一步研究。
    四、教師對教材編訂,認為教師自訂較省經費,惟共同性或專業性的教材,得委託特教資源中心或特教學術研究機構編訂。
    五、家長對學校提供學習環境滿意度高達80%。
    研究者根據文獻分析及研究發現,提出下列各項建議:
    一、對教育行政單位的建議
    (一) 校園無障礙設施經費,應由各校視實際需求編列在年度預算中。
    (二) 各校經費編列應以設置障礙班類別、學生人數、障礙程度訂定經費編列標準公式,以達經費運用績效。
    (三) 充實特教資源中心經費,設置特教專業人員,協助教學與輔導。落實教學評鑑,有效監督經費運用。
    二、對學校行政單位的建議
    (一) 經費運用開誠佈公,避免誤解和疑慮並增設專用電腦教室加強學生技能訓練。
    (二) 身障班學生上課,儘量方便師生上課,考試評量特別設計,減少學生學習挫折。
    三、對家長的建議
    (一) 尊重教師教學專業,協助結合社會或社區資源,共同參與學生教學與輔導活動。
    (二) 自動提早通報子女障礙情形,供學校早期介入,改善學生障礙。
    四、對未來研究的建議
    (一) 本研究理論基礎著重特教經費來源及運用概況,相關研究工具尚未建立,對經費運用之效能、效率、信度,有待再進一步研究。
    (二) 本研究範圍調查問卷取樣及深度訪談對象,僅作台北市國中、小學校身障班未普及全面性學校、社區、社會人士觀點或意見,進行評析,提供更具體研究結果,有待更進一步研究。
