輔仁大學圖書資訊學系 能力檢測問卷之開發 Development of a Competency Questionnaire for LIS Undergraduates at Fu-Jen Catholic University

Abstract

圖書資訊學的職場亟需畢業的學生具備科技的能力以因應職場實務之表現。面臨未來學生專業之需求,圖書資訊教育必須隨時調整專業課程,以因應職場需求之變化。在專業訓練上,畢業的學生必須有優秀的表現,以跟上科技的趨勢。為了因應圖書資訊之專業需求,輔仁大學圖書資訊學系歷年來已由傳統以圖書為主的科學而轉變成為與資訊科技並重的學系。2008年為配合輔仁大學卓越計畫各學系能力指標之訂定,系所教師共同研討,訂定31項能力指標。為了測試這31項能力指標的信度與適用性,這31項能力指標的內涵轉為問卷的形式,而由學生填寫,以反映學生自我評量的能力水準。依據216位大學部生所填寫的資料進行因素分析的結果,本研究萃取五個主要因素,依序為:圖書資訊服務、媒體素養、網路素養、電腦素養,以及系統開發能。以高、低年級進行t檢定結果,高年級學生對於大部分的自評能力檢測項目之反應皆高於低年級學生 (p < 0.05)。The LIS workplace demands that graduates can function optimally and keep up with technological developments. To prepare students for Library and Information Science (LIS) practice, educators are challenged by the need to adapt their curricula to changes taking place in the practice of library and information science. Coping with the changing needs of LIS profession- als, the Department of Library and Information Science at Fu-Jen Catholic University has shifted from a focus of traditional library science toward a balance with information technology. In 2008, 31 competencies for under- graduate level were set up by faculty members as a partial requirement for “Teaching Excellence Project”. These competencies were translated into a questionnaire format for assessing students’perception about their capabili- ties. To test its reliability and the appropriateness of its competence con- structs, factor analysis was conducted based on 216 data gathered. Findings revealed a simple five-factor competence structure (Library Information Ser- vices, Media Literacy, Network Literacy, Computer Literacy, and System-De- velopment). T-test indicated that students with more years in LIS perceived themselves as being more competent in most competence constructs (p < 0.05).
