國立臺灣科學教育館之科學巡迴教育活動運用科教巡迴車、科學展 示、科學實作探索、科學體驗探索及科學演示等活動，將科普教育推廣 至各縣市學校及偏遠地區。本研究主要探討民眾參與科學巡迴教育活動 後，影響其科學學習動機之成效。首先對科學巡迴教育活動現況進行相關 文獻分析，並採用問卷對參與活動200 名民眾進行隨機取樣，問卷依據文 獻探討及研究所需改編學生科學學習動機量表(Tuan et al., 2005) 而成。研 究者經資料蒐集分析和研究發現，參與民眾在科學巡迴教育活動整體科學 學習動機表現略高，以「科學學習價值」(SLV) 層面的得分最高，而「非 表現目標導向」(NPG) 層面得分最低，顯示參與民眾認為科學學習的價值 和技巧是重要的，能引起較強的學習動機；統計結果亦顯示，男性的科學 學習動機高於女性，且達顯著差異。由研究結論提出科學巡迴教育活動辦 理策略的建議與未來研究方向，其研究結果提供其他非正式科學教育機構 參考使用。

The National Taiwan Science Education Center (NTSEC) holds traveling exhibitions and activities to promote science education in cities, counties and remote areas around Taiwan, making use of vans, educational kits, exploration programs, science experiments, and demonstrations. The aim of this study is to understand the impact of these exhibitions and activities on targeted participants’ motivation towards science learning. A review of the literature was carried out and a survey of 200 participants was conducted to determine their motivation towards science learning (Tuan et al., 2005). Motivation towards science learning was higher following participation in a traveling exhibition. Scores were highest for “science learning value” (SLV) and lowest for “non-performance goal-oriented” (NPG). Moreover, there was a significantly higher level of motivation towards science learning among males than among females. The results of this study serve as an important reference for informal science education institutions in terms of developing strategies and future directions for science-themed traveling exhibitions.
