Study on the Fostering of Self-Educability in the Technology Education : Consideration on the Teaching Process Includes Two Materials in "Electricity" Region

Abstract

This study aims at presenting basic data for the fostering of self-educability on the teaching process includes two materials in Technology Education. Both the diagnosis test and the evaluation test on self-educability were carried out to the junior high school students at each teaching process, namely the learning through lecture and the productive practice in "Electricity" region, and then these tests were analyzed respectively. The main results are summarized as follows: (1) The productive practice is able to foster the self-educability better than the learning through lecture on the teaching process includes two materials in "Electricity" region. (2) It was shown that the self-educability of the schoolgirl and the schoolboy were equally fostered by this teaching process includes two materials in "Electricity" region. (3) It becomes clear that "Consciousness of problem", "Concentration", and "Method of study" are main factors for the fostering of self-educability on the teaching Process in "Electricity" region.
