摘要、提要註:
In response to the parental and societal demands, more schools have implemented "Using Putonghua to teach Chinese" (UPe) school-based curriculum. As schools have different contextual factors, ensuring the quality of the curriculum becomes a major concern. This study aims to explore the essential elements of an effective UPC school-based curriculum, improve its quality, identify and share the successful experiences and difficulties teachers encountered in the implementation process. Action research and evaluations done collaboratively with teachers were conducted to address the four research questions: (1) What are the crucial elements of an effective UPC school-based curriculum? (2) How well is the existing curriculum? (3) How can teachers use the evaluation data to improve quality of the curriculum? (4) What are the key success factors and problems teachers encountered?

In response to the parental and societal demands, more schools have implemented "Using Putonghua to teach Chinese" (UPe) school-based curriculum. As schools have different contextual factors, ensuring the quality of the curriculum becomes a major concern. This study aims to explore the essential elements of an effective UPC school-based curriculum, improve its quality, identify and share the successful experiences and difficulties teachers encountered in the implementation process. Action research and evaluations done collaboratively with teachers were conducted to address the four research questions: (1) What are the crucial elements of an effective UPC school-based curriculum? (2) How well is the existing curriculum? (3) How can teachers use the evaluation data to improve quality of the curriculum? (4) What are the key success factors and problems teachers encountered?

The study targeted at 7 Chinese language teachers from 2 secondary schools. An evaluation framework was first developed, then used to assess the two existing UPC school-based curricula. The researcher also observed and interview the target teachers to understand their views and feelings. Through comparing and contrasting the two school cases, the researcher explored how the degree of teachers' involvement in evaluating the curriculum affected the effectiveness of the outcomes.

With adoption of 15 assessment dimensions and 82 evaluation criteria, the study shows an effective UPC school-based curriculum should measure the intended, the implemented and the learned curriculum. The intended curriculum was found to be the best, followed by the implemented curriculum and the learned curriculum being the worst. The result implied that the objectives of the UPC school-based curriculum were clearly defined but the effectiveness of the learning outcomes fell short of the expectaion. A major problem of the intended curriculum was the lack of resources, thus making the infusion of Putonghua element into the Chinese language lessons and the integration of the two subjects difficult. Different school characteristics were found in the implemented curriculum. The roles of the two media of instruction were clear. However, teachers could not adjust their teaching methodologies and this also complicated the problem of learner diversity. The learning outcomes of the students also differ when the UPC school-based curriculum objectives were set differently in the two schools.

The evidence collected showed that the degree of teachers' involvement in evaluating the UPC school-based curriculum has an impact on enhancing the quality of the curriculum. Teachers' involvement could take the form of: (1) observation to increase the awareness and sensitivity of using Putonghua to teach Chinese; (2) reflection to enhance the understanding of using Putonghua to teach Chinese and to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning; (3) discussion to reach consensus of the missions and objectives set; (4) evaluation to develop teachers' ability in making professional judgments; (5) utilization of the evaluation data to provide feedback to the curriculum. Moreover, the study showed that a systematic framework helps in making reflection and evaluation, effective team work fosters doing of the evaluation that enhances teachers' professional development and optimizes curriculum development. It also helps the school to explore the good school-based curriculum practices. As for the difficulties, teachers found it hard to solve all the teaching and learning problems at once. The lack of relevant knowledge, the extra workload and long working hours add up to put stress on them.

The research findings are constructive to the development of UPC school-based curriculum evaluation criteria. They facilitated regular reviews on the quality assurance, enhanced the overall development, contributed knowledge to the construction of the UPC school-based curriculum and the assessment theory. In practice, the successful experiences of the target teachers served as good reference for other schools.
