本研究主要目的是在規劃並實施適合高職夜校生之生命教育課程並探討該課程對高職夜校生生命意義感之立即性和持續性影響。 本研究採取「準實驗設計」，研究對象為九十二學年就讀於中部某高中附設進修學校餐飲科三年級學生，以立意取樣分為實驗組37人，控制組36人，實驗組學生接受每週二節課，計十二週（24小時）生命教育課程，控制組在實驗期間不接受任何生命教育課程。實驗組與控制組同時以「生命意義感」量表於教學前一週進行前測，實驗教學結束後一週進行後測，教學結束後八週進行追蹤測，資料蒐集以量性為主質性為輔。量性資料以SPSS10.0統計套裝軟體進行分析，採用獨立樣本單因子共變數分析，以前測為共變量（α=.05）進行統計分析，並輔以半結構問卷、訪談分析以考驗研究假設。其次，研究者更透過學習單、心得寫作、訪談記錄及課程總回饋表之分析，以為本實驗教學課程教學成效之佐證。 本研究結果歸納如下： 一、生命教育課程對高職夜校生「生命意義感」的立即性影響並不顯著，除「生活目標」層面有立即性影響外，「生命意義」、「生活熱忱」皆無立即顯著影響。 二、生命教育課程對高職夜校生「生命意義感」部份層面具延宕影響效果，其整體「生命意義感」及「生活目標」、「生命意義」具延宕效果外，餘「生活熱忱」未有延宕成效。 三、從實驗組學生的「單元學習單」、「課程總回饋單」、「訪談記錄」及學生學習成效顯示，此生命教育課程適合於高職夜校生。 四、本生命教育課程對高職夜校生有積極正面的影響，不僅能洞察生命的內涵與意義，更能省思自我存在的價值，改善人我間的關係並學習正視死亡，珍愛生命進而建立服務的價值觀。 五、教學媒體多元運用成效良好 六、高職夜校生對本生命教育課程接受度高。 七、在高職夜校推動生命教育有其必要性。 根據以上研究結果，研究者提出具體建議，以提供未來研究及學校實務應用上的參考。 The main purpose of this study is based on the plan and implement of the life education program suitable for students at a vocational night high school which is the immediate and sustaining effects of such program on the meanings of life is also related to my research. The quasi- experimental design was conducted. The object of study was targeted to 73 junior students of two classes in a three-year of vocational night high school in central Taiwan. They were divided into one experimental group (37 people) and one control group (36 people) for test teaching. The researcher in person taught the life program two sessions every week to the students of the experimental group for 12 weeks (24 hours); however, the students of the control group did not receive any of such instructions. The “purpose in life test”(PIL) were used to evaluate pre-intervention and post- intervention achievement and a follow-up test. The data were analyzed by using the one-factor analysis of covariance with the SPSS10.0 statistics software package. Hypotheses were also tested through analysis of semi-structural questionnaires as well as in-depth interviews. Besides, the researcher used Unit Learning Sheet, Program Feedback Form, Inter-view Records and Learning Achievements of Students as assistant tools to evaluate the performance of implementing the life program. The results of this study were as follows： 1. The post-intervention evaluation shows that life programs could significantly increase the score on the sub-scale “the purpose of life” but could not significantly increase, “the value of life” and “the sincere of life”. 2. Two months after intervention, the experimental group was still scores higher than the control on the sub-scale, “the purpose of life” and “the value of life” of the PIL. However, the experimental group could not significantly score higher on a sub-scales ,“the sincere of life”. 3. According to Unit Learning Sheet, Program Feedback Form, Interview Records and Learning Achievements of Students collected from the experimental group, this life program is suitable for students at a vocational night high school. 4. Life programs had positive influences to the students of the experimental group on ife-meaning attitude 5. Teaching can achieve excellent results via diversified applications of teaching software. 6. Life programs was highly accepted by the students at vocational night high school. 7. It is practical to complement life education at vocational night high school. The results of this study and applications of the programs were discussed.；suggestions for future researches were proposed.
