To understand the implementation quality of the Tier 1 Program (Secondary 1 Curriculum) of the Project P.A.T.H.S. (Positive Adolescent Training through Holistic Social Programmes), observers carried out process evaluation in the form of systematic observations of 22 units in 14 randomly selected schools. Results showed that the overall level of program adherence was generally high (range: 45-100%, with an average of 86.3%). High implementation quality of the program in the areas of student interest, student participation and involvement, classroom control, use of interactive delivery method, use of strategies to enhance student motivation, use of positive and supportive feedbacks, instructors' familiarity with the students, degree of achievement of the objectives, time management, lesson preparation, overall implementation quality, and success of implementation was also found. The present findings are consistent with those observations based on the experimental implementation phase, suggesting that the implementation quality of the Tier 1 Program (Secondary 1 Curriculum) was generally high.
为了解“P.A.T.H.S.计划”(通过全方位社会计划进行青少年积极培训)一级课程(中学一年级课程)的实施质量,观察员以系统观察的形式对14所随机抽取学校中的22个单位进行了过程评估。结果显示,课程依从性的总体水平普遍较高(范围:45%-100%,平均为86.3%)。该课程在学生兴趣、学生参与度、课堂管理、互动教学方法的使用、提高学生动机策略的使用、积极和支持性反馈的使用、教师对学生的熟悉程度、目标达成度、时间管理、课程准备、总体实施质量以及实施成功率等方面也具备较高的实施质量。目前的研究结果与基于实验实施阶段的观察结果一致,表明一级课程(中学一年级课程)的实施质量总体较高。
