網路資訊尋求行為

本研究目的在探討國小高年級學生之網路資訊尋求行為，以臺北市河堤國小與市北師實小32名學童為研究對象，研究方法主要為深度訪談與關鍵事件回憶法。研究結果發現：學童最主要的網路搜尋動機為學校作業；其檢索問題多為與學校作業相關者；學童主要的資訊資源管道為網路與父母；且最常利用的搜尋引擎奇摩；在資訊檢索過程中，學童較常利用一次檢索中的直接輸入檢索問題與擷取關鍵詞輸入等方式來查找資料；另一次檢索中的直接輸入網址與點選搜尋引擎之分類目錄的檢索成功率較高；根據訪談結果，方便好用為學童提出網路搜尋資訊之最大優點，找不到資料為最大缺點。

This article investigates Internet information seeking behavior of elementary school students in their senior years from “Heti Elementary School” and “Taipei Municipal Teachers College Experimental Elementary School. ”Subjects are 32 senior grades students selected from the above two schools. “In-depth interview” and “critical incident technique” are used as the primary research methods. From the result of this study, we can infer that “school assignments” comprises the primary motive of elementary school students in their senior years. It is for this reason that most questions are asked by these pupils in relation to “school assignments.” Pupils frequently used “the Internet” and “parents” as their primary information resource channels. ”Kimo” was the search engine with the highest usage. During the information search process, pupils tended to perform “a single search” by “directly entering the search question” and “extracting the keyword and entering it.” It is the “directly entering the website address” and “selecting from the search engine’s list of contents” both of which involved using “a single search” that get the highest success rate. In addition, most of pupils believed that “convenient to use “ was the greatest advantage in using the Internet to search for information, while “could not find data” was the most commonly observed isadvantage.
