This investigation studied the effect to hearing for Department of Traditional Music by the sound level of learning environment, personal noise dose, hearing threshold, and questionnaire. The sound levels of group performance and personal performance were measured. The average equivalent energy sound level of the instrumental ensemble course is 76.7 - 87.0 dB(A), the accompany Peking Opera course is 78.9 - 95.8 dB(A) and the luo-gu-jing course is 80.6-89.9 dB(A). The measurements to 10 instruments of personal performance are pipa, ruan, sanxian(three string guitar), guzheng, di(bamboo flute), sheng(reed pipe), suona(woodwind horn), dulcimer, piano and two-stringed huqin. There are 2 instruments including di and suona whose average equivalent energy sound level(Leq) are over 85 dB(A). Moreover, the average equivalent energy sound level from corridor is louder than that of the practice room. The average personal noise doses(8 hours) of the instrumental ensemble course is 20.4-95.1%, the accompany Peking Opera course is 90.5-535.4%, and the luo-gu-jing course is 21.4- 125.6%. The average personal noise doses (8 hours) of ten instruments from large to small order, are di(214%), suona(208.5%), dulcimer(156.5%), sheng (93.0%), erhu(86.2%), pipa(74.9%), sanxian(50.6%), ruan(45.7%), guzheng(17.0%) and piano (6.6%) during individual practice. From the hearing threshold and questionnaire, the students of compound school of ten-year system, more than 30 minutes of talking on cell phone per day, more than 1 hour of listening music by headset, and non-use earplugs show poorer hearing. According to the standard of occupational hearing loss in Taiwan, only one student raise hearing threshold. Moreover, based on the standard from American Academy of Otolaryngology, 12 students and 11 students raise hearing threshold respectively in low frequency range and high frequency range among 18 students. Furthermore, the audiograms pattern shows a typical notch in 4000 and 6000 Hz. It means the students might emerge early symptom of noise-induced hearing loss.

Taiwanese Opera is a comprehensive art that combines music, drama, dance, and art. It plays an important role in local opera. In the early days of traditional agricultural society in Taiwan, watching an opera at temple used to be the most popular leisure and entertainment for people. However, with the changes of the times and the impact of diversified entertainment, it is a pity that Taiwanese operas are gradually declining. How we can demonstrate the local color and spirit and explore the identity and mainstream value for this land is critical. This is one of the motivations for this study. Through the performance and appreciation of traditional operas, the study is going to explore whether Taiwanese opera will promote the attitudes of students in learning about cultural and leisure activities. This is the second motivation. The study investigated part of students from grade 4 to 6 in Wu Chiang Primary School where I work. The study takes the teachers as researchers, activities related to teaching as research materials, daily teaching situation as research situation, and improvement of teaching activities as research purpose. The author would head for the teaching site performing operas to implement the teaching methods, taking Taiwanese opera music as major teaching material and Taiwanese opera as supplementary material for appreciation. In this study, Qualitative Research of Action Research was conducted, and the results of the study were found as follows: 1. The “school-based” and “comprehensive field” courses integrated into the design philosophy of Taiwanese opera music teaching can change school-children’ attitude towards the appreciation of Taiwanese opera. 2. Taiwanese opera music teaching can facilitate the implementation of traditional art and leisure culture education among school-children. 3. Taiwanese opera music teaching can promote primary students’ interest in traditional art and leisure culture. Their attitudes towards the traditional art and leisure cultures can unconsciously be changed as well. Suggestions: 1. Taiwanese opera teaching requires the method of team teaching. Teachers who seek common ideas for traditional art should enrich themselves with the qualities of the traditional art and leisure culture. 2. Provide teachers wishing to teach traditional art with the opportunity for further study, make up for the expenses to increase the school tour, and enrich the classroom equipment and resources.

Specific research purposes included the studying of students’ participation situation and their problem encountered in such appreciation activities, as well as the examining of their learning effects in Beijing Opera cognition and appreciating attitudes. An exploratory case study was conducted, in which the researcher designed 8 lessons of the WebQuest for learning activities. Before the lessons, the researcher looked for appropriate internet information to build up linkages in the researched-designed WebQuest teaching web pages to allow for students’ exploring learning activities. Small groups among students were formed to facilitate the progressing of curriculum activities. In addition to appreciating Beijing Opera in the web pages, students had to collect and synthesize information on the teaching web pages, and to make oral reports on the stage. Three Beijing Opera repertoires of “San Cha Kou,” “The Monkey King” and “The legend of the White Snake: On the West Lake” were appreciated respectively, followed by the exposition to the brief history of Beijing Opera, performing art, role categories, Beijing Opera facial design, Beijing Opera costumes, and the Beijing Opera band. Participating observation, videotaping and documents collection were used by the researcher to achieve the research purposes. The findings of this study are stated as follows: 1. The WebQuest for Beijing Opera appreciation activities no only helped students to learn more about Beijing Opera, but also, led them to actively take part in classroom activities. 2. The related problems observed in the WebQuest for Beijing Opera appreciation activities included students’ sense of difficulty for certain terminology, their lack of self-control to internet, and the curriculum’s lack of appeal for them. 3. The WebQuest for Beijing Opera appreciation activities significantly enhanced students’ Beijing Opera cognition and appreciating attitudes.

Since facial symbolism in Chinese opera (FSCO) holds conventional personality trait (PT), meanwhile sixth-grade elementary school students (SGESS) have the capability to select adjective to represent PT, this paper intended to survey SGESS’s PT cognition of FSCO. Further, it anticipated that FSCO could be used as a tool to help educators and counseling workers simplify the approach to survey the PT of SGESS. By selecting nine kinds of FSCO and associating with Taiwan’s adjective for PT of SGESS, 72 pre-test questionnaires were collected. Then for each FSCO, its first five adjectives rating over 59.5% were confirmed and 220 subjects were surveyed. The statistical result of cross table analysis and Chi-square examination showed that SGESS’s PT cognition of FSCO, which served as an assessing tool, is independent of gender differences and region differences. This paper selected the representative PT cognition of FSCO from the first three adjectives rating over 64.4%. However, for each FSCO the adjective with the highest rating of frequency distribution table still shows differences except the golden color (Tathagata buddha) and the silver color (Guan Ping). Following the way of self comment on PT questionnaire, this paper asked SGESS to select FSCO to represent themselves and suggest a simplified PT assessing procedure for SGESS. This could be helpful for educator and the counseling workers assessing the PT of SGESS. As for future research in this filed, this paper suggested increase the survey areas, the samples, and research variable, replace the questionnaire pictures, adopt other research techniques.

Native language learning is important in the trend of democratization. However, it has been neglected for a long time in elementary schools. Students show little interesting in learning native language. With the popularization of information technology, technology enhanced learning has become an important option of teaching design. On the other hand, educational drama is an activity that covers visual, auditory, tactile, speech, movement and composition. It is expected that the students’ learning performance will be enhanced with proper incorporation of information technology and educational drama/theatre in native language learning. In this study, information technology and educational drama/theatre are both incorporated through the Taiwanese opera in teaching Minnan language, which is the major native language in Taiwan. Multimedia teaching materials for learning Taiwanese opera are designed for the students to learn through web-based learning. Moreover, educational dramas of Taiwanese opera are performed by the students after they have learned. To explore the effects of incorporating web-based learning and Taiwanese opera perform on elementary school children’s Minnan learning, 56 students of fifth-grade are engaged for 6 weeks in the field experiment. The analytical results of the experiments show that the learning achievement, motivation and attitude are promoted, as well as the satisfaction of learning mode and the personal self-efficacy.

Full textThis project is concerned with identifying and investigating a problem faced by students undertaking studies in opera, namely, readily available performance related materials for students of opera to consult when preparing for a performance. The purpose of this project is to develop an internet-based resource containing a range of information about operas, musical scores and their interpretation, opera recordings, opera literature, opera composers, opera performers, and opera companies as a solution to this problem. The Project uses aspects of opera interpretation and opera libretti as a theoretical framework.
In order to accomplish these outcomes, this project demonstrates that no single source of information that is presently available in print or electronic form is comprehensive, reliable and convenient enough to provide opera students with information necessary for use in a production. The Project highlights the need for an electronic resource that is comprehensive for opera students.
The analysis of the usability of website research literature indicates that successful electronic resources embody the principles of: "24/7", 'anywhere', 'anytime' access; ease-of-access, user-friendly website design; and resources relevant to the specific enquiry of the user in their design.
The Project leads to the conclusion that no single source of information is comprehensive enough for an opera student to acquire, process and assimilate all of the information necessary for use in a production.
The overarching product of the project is a design and guidelines for the development of an internet-based resource aimed at eliminating the lack of performance related materials in the field of opera study. I call this resource Operapaedia.

Abstract The daily life of human beings is closely related to mass media. Moreover, TV programs are an indispensable consuming entertainment for junior high school students. Initially, idol soap operas were only popular in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan; gradually, the markets in China and Southeastern Asia were also developed. Accordingly, enormous successes and great economical benefits were gained. There are more female viewers than male spectators. Furthermore, teenagers occupy the largest proportion of the audience. For these young people who are still in their adolescence, the infatuation with the shows more or less reflects their future life expectancy. Idol series not only fulfill people’s expectation toward fond dreams but also lead the audience to escape from imperfect reality. By using Principal Component Analysis, five factors regarding junior high school students’ attitudes toward idol soap operas are found in this research. Moreover, these five factors can be regarded as the indicators which influence how teenagers choose the idol series. (Key terms: factor analysis, junior high school students, idol soap operas)
