本研究旨在探討「地方文化、學校與社區之關係」，並以臺南市安平區擁有悠久歷史的安平文化及國小教育為經驗研究對象。本研究採用西方學者Spindler、Ogbu二人所提出的「文化不連續」觀點為切入點，探討學校教育與地方文化之間的疏離與文化不連續現象，以及學校教育與社區組織之間協調連繫網絡未能發揮功能等議題，為其特色。 經過經驗研究，結果發現: 1. 在國小學校教育與安平地方文化之關係上，目前是存在著某種程度的文化不連續現象，亦即，雖然當今的國小教育重視鄉土教學的推動，但仍存在疏離於地方文化的落差，故應該設法加以彌補。學校教育在傳遞與擴散安平文化上，仍有待加強。 2. 在國小學校教育與社區組織(側重廟宇)之關係上，目前是存在著明顯的文化不連續，尤其是社區發展協會、文教基金會、廟宇方面，不論是在推動安平文化的觀念上或作法上，彼此之間的協調機制與連繫網絡關係是無法發揮功能的，故亟待建立。各社區組織在傳遞或擴散安平文化的視野與努力上，是相當不足的。 3. 初步建構有關「安平文化、學校與社區之間相互關係」之模型，提供給推動地方文化之相關單位作為參考。

The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between local culture, school and community. We will take on empirical study on Anping culture and primary school in Anping District. And, we attempt to explore (1) cu1tural discontinuity between school education and local cu1ture, and (2) disfunction among school and community organizations from viewpoints of "cu1tural discontinuity" concepts asserted by George Spindler and John Ogbu. The main findings are as fol1ows: 1. There are cultural discontinuities between primary school education and Anping local cu1ture in present. And, the diffusion and emanation of Anping cu1ture based on primary school education wil1 be strengthened in future 2. There are significant cultural discontinuities between primary school education and community organizations (for example, temples) in present. There are not any negotiation mechanisms and communication networks between them. And, the diffusion and emanation of Anping culture based on community organizations are very inadequate. 3. We provide "Anping culture, primary school and community interactions model" in this study.
