在香港，學生的個別差異己是日益嚴重的教育問題，近期的課程改革正積極鼓勵學校運用課程調適的策略來解決這個問題；因此，有很多學校尤其是小學都嘗試用調適課程的方式來幫助個別差異的學生學習。由於負責調適課程的是教師，他們對以課程調適來照顧個別差異學生的觀念，足以影響學校實施課程調適的效能。透過與教師的面談，本研究試圖瞭解教師對以課程調適幫助個別差異學生學習所持著的觀點，從而提醒有心從事學校改革的校長，必先理解教師參與課程改革的心態，然後採取有效的改革策略，才能促使學校達致校本課程改革的願景。
The problem of students' individual differences has been getting worse in Hong Kong. In recent curriculum reform, schools have been encouraged to use curriculum adaptation as the strategy to deal with this problem. Thus many schools particularly primary schools have made attempts to adapt their curriculum to cater for their students' individual differences. As teachers are the ones who adapt the school curriculum, their views on using this strategy to cater for individual differences would have direct impact on the effect of curriculum implementation in schools. Through interviewing primary teachers, this study aims to understand teachers' perceptions of using curriculum adaptation as the strategy to cater for students' individual differences. The main purpose is to remind those principals and educators who would like to implement curriculum innovations including curriculum adaptation in schools, to pay special attention to teachers' views and attitudes towards the innovations and the need of identifying appropriate implementation strategies in their initiation of school-based innovative initiatives.[Copyright of New Horizons: The Journal of Education, Hong Kong Teachers' Associationl is the property of Hong Kong Teachers' Association at http://www.hkta1934.org.hk/]
