摘要

It has been years for teaching Hakka dialect in elementary schools. There are some improvements needed to be done in schools, families and communities. It will be a great benefit for teaching Hakka dialect if some efficient solutions are provided. This study used the SWOT analysis to analyze the literatures and categorized six directions for interviewing professionals. After the interview, the results were combined as a pretest questionnaire by using Delphi method. The questionnaire was generated as a formal Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) questionnaire by using Likert scales to identify the factors. The participants were Hakka dialect instructors, administrative staff, government officials, and parents. This study is intended to provide objective evaluation criteria for instructors. This study can also provide proper advice for administrations, communities, and families. It can further promote Hakka dialect teaching in elementary school.
