摘要: | 自電腦發明以來,隨著時代演進其效能日漸強大,功能日漸增多,但價格卻越來越低廉。從早期僅有研究機構或大型企業才負擔的起到今日幾乎家家戶戶都有電腦,而各種應用軟體與網際網路的蓬勃發展更加促進了電腦的普及化。
時至今日,電腦已然成為了人們不可或缺的元素,無論是工作、學習、生活、或是娛樂。因此若是不具備操作電腦的能力將與社會出現隔閡,成為弱勢的族群。根據調查,我國不懂得使用電腦的電腦文盲多集中於51 歲以上老年人口,因此為了改善此一現象,政府大力鼓吹終身學習的觀念,並積極推廣老年人學習電腦。
許多相關研究皆顯示電腦態度與學習電腦的成效具有正相關性,因此本研究旨在探討當這些老年人學習電腦時,性別、年齡、教育程度、職業、就業狀況、城鄉差距等人口統計變項因素是否會造成其電腦態度有所差異。本研究共調查254位來自宜蘭縣各鄉鎮市的老年學生,結果顯示,年齡、教育程度、職業、就業狀況等因素對老年人的電腦態度有顯著差異,而性別因素以及城鄉差距因素則對老年人電腦態度無顯著差異。
In early years, only researchers and large enterprises owned computers, while
computers now are owned by person due to the computers are more powerful and
cheaper to produce. In the meantime, computer software and the internet boost the popularity
of using computers.
Nowadays, computers are widely used in human’s life, including working, studying,
entertainment etc. That's why we will be left behind the society if we don't understand
how to use a computer. In Taiwan, people over the age of 51 remain computer illiterates
are those who don't understand how to use a computer and the government
supports the seniors to learn the usage of computers.
Many studies showed that computer attitude positively related to the learning effectiveness
on computer usages. As a point, this thesis gives a study on computer attitudes
of seniors through different variation on population statistics. The population statistics
includes gender, age, education, occupation, impact of employment status, and
cities and villages in gap. Data was collected among 254 senior citizens in Yilan County,
Taiwan. It was found that there exist significant difference in terms of age, education,
occupation, and impact of employment status, but gender or cities and villages in gap
had no significant influence on any parameter to affect computer attitudes of seniors. |
