80年代成為研究熱點(diǎn)

90年代開始廣泛應(yīng)用到教學(xué)中去10(二)國(guó)內(nèi)情況

80年代開始有人研究,大約比國(guó)外晚10年。Huang,Xiaohua,1984.AninvestigationoflearningstrategiesinoralcommunicationthatChineseEFLlearnersinChinaemploy.HK:UnpublishedMAthesis.Chen，S.Q.1990.AstudyofcommunicationstrategiesininterlanguageproductionbyChineseEFLlearners.LanguageLearning40(2):155-87.1190年代成為研究的熱點(diǎn)，并試圖運(yùn)用到教學(xué)中去。研究對(duì)象：英語(yǔ)專業(yè)，非英語(yǔ)專業(yè)，碩士研究生，小學(xué)生。研究范圍：聽力策略，口頭交際策略，閱讀策略，寫作策略，詞匯策略。未研究的或研究不夠的：中學(xué)生，小學(xué)生；學(xué)習(xí)語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)策略，學(xué)習(xí)語(yǔ)法策略，學(xué)習(xí)翻譯策略。121、文秋芳，1996，《英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略論》上海外語(yǔ)教育出版社出版了2、文秋芳，2003，《英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)的成功之路》上海外語(yǔ)教育出版社3、文秋芳，王立非，2003，《英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略實(shí)證研究》，陜西師范大學(xué)出版社4、文秋芳，王立非，2004，《英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略理論研究》，陜西師范大學(xué)出版社13(三)為什么對(duì)研究英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略感興趣？研究“如何教”成效不大研究教學(xué)方法，走進(jìn)了死胡同。教與學(xué)兩個(gè)方面，缺一不可。社會(huì)對(duì)教育的要求培養(yǎng)獨(dú)立、自主的學(xué)習(xí)者，自己能夠?qū)W習(xí)新知識(shí)。14給人以魚，一日食魚；授人予漁，終身得魚。

Giveamanafishandheeatsaday.Teachhimhowtofishandheeatsforalifetime.15二、英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略的定義(一)什么不是策略？學(xué)習(xí)策略不是“recipes”。學(xué)習(xí)策略不是“訣竅”。學(xué)習(xí)策略不是“靈丹妙藥”16

(二)英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略的定義

根據(jù)自己的觀念，為提高英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)效果而采取的行動(dòng)或方法。策略=觀念+方法這個(gè)定義更適用于對(duì)成年人的策略研究。17三、英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略系統(tǒng)英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)觀念英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)方法觀念與方法之間的關(guān)系18

管理觀念語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)觀念管理方法語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)方法英語(yǔ)成績(jī)環(huán)境因素學(xué)習(xí)者因素19

（一）學(xué)習(xí)觀念舉例

學(xué)好英語(yǔ)的關(guān)鍵是什么？管理學(xué)習(xí)過(guò)程重要嗎？準(zhǔn)確與流利哪個(gè)更重要？多聽、多讀是否一定能學(xué)好英語(yǔ)？母語(yǔ)在學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)中的作用是什么？運(yùn)用翻譯來(lái)學(xué)英語(yǔ)是否是個(gè)好方法？通過(guò)上下文猜詞義是否是學(xué)習(xí)單詞最好的方法？20

重要觀念一

管理學(xué)習(xí)過(guò)程是否重要？不重要，跟著教師走就行。不重要，因?yàn)閺?qiáng)迫自己，效率不高。重要，因?yàn)闆](méi)有目標(biāo)，沒(méi)有計(jì)劃，沒(méi)有調(diào)控，就不可能有成功。21

重要觀念二

語(yǔ)言的準(zhǔn)確性和流利度同等重要嗎？流利度比準(zhǔn)確性更重要，因?yàn)榻浑H中表達(dá)意義最重要。準(zhǔn)確性必流利度更重要，因?yàn)檎Z(yǔ)言錯(cuò)誤不注意糾正，容易固化。同等重要。22對(duì)正確性與流利性關(guān)系的認(rèn)識(shí)有偏差80年代以前過(guò)分強(qiáng)調(diào)準(zhǔn)確性學(xué)生不敢開口，啞巴英語(yǔ)80年代以后過(guò)分強(qiáng)調(diào)流利性短期效應(yīng)，扼殺了學(xué)生語(yǔ)言的持續(xù)發(fā)展能力23Schmidt(1983):跟蹤調(diào)查在夏威夷的日本人Wes在美國(guó)兩年,英語(yǔ)的流利度有了顯著提高，能成功的與別人進(jìn)行交流，但句法能力幾乎沒(méi)有進(jìn)步。Higgs&Clifford(1982):跟蹤調(diào)查研究對(duì)象為美國(guó)外交學(xué)院學(xué)生學(xué)生入學(xué)時(shí)，語(yǔ)言的準(zhǔn)確性高于或等于流利性的學(xué)生，經(jīng)過(guò)訓(xùn)練以后，進(jìn)步特別明顯；而那些語(yǔ)言的流利性高于準(zhǔn)確性的學(xué)生，他們雖有暫時(shí)的優(yōu)勢(shì)，但沒(méi)有持續(xù)發(fā)展能力，課程教學(xué)對(duì)他們的作用不明顯，他們通常在比較低的水平上就停滯不前了，24(二)英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)方法管理方法認(rèn)知活動(dòng)管理情感活動(dòng)管理語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)方法聽、說(shuō)、讀、寫語(yǔ)音、語(yǔ)法、詞匯25認(rèn)知活動(dòng)管理確立目標(biāo)；制定計(jì)劃；選擇方法；監(jiān)控學(xué)習(xí)過(guò)程；評(píng)價(jià)方法的成效；調(diào)整學(xué)習(xí)行為。26情感活動(dòng)管理分兩類：(1)調(diào)動(dòng)積極情感因素 自信心毅力(2)克服消極情感因素焦慮怕丟面子、怕失敗等27（三）語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)方法學(xué)習(xí)聽、說(shuō)、讀、寫技能的方法《英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略論〉89-134頁(yè)學(xué)習(xí)語(yǔ)音、語(yǔ)法、詞匯的方法《英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略論〉134-159頁(yè)28四、英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)策略對(duì)成績(jī)的影響大量研究結(jié)果表明：(1)學(xué)習(xí)策略對(duì)成績(jī)有明顯的影響；(2)有意識(shí)地調(diào)控學(xué)習(xí)策略是取得成功的關(guān)鍵；(3)學(xué)習(xí)有法，學(xué)無(wú)定法，策略因人而異，因時(shí)而變。29AcomparativestudyofonesuccessfulandonelesssuccessfulEnglishlearnersinChina30IntroductionAbriefliteraturereviewResearchquestionsMethodologySubjectsInstrumentsData-collectionData-analysisResultsanddiscussion31IntroductionSincethe70’s,studiesonlearningstrategiesusedbyL2learnershavebeengrowing.Theirgeneralassumptionthestudiesattemptedtotestisthatpoorlearnersusefewervarietiesofeffectivestrategiesandusethemlessfrequently.32Thecontentionofthesestudiesisthatifpoorlearnerscanexpandtheirrepertoireoflearningstrategiesandincreasethefrequencyofusingthem,theirachievementwillbeimproved.However,theempiricalstudieshaven’tyetyieldedconsistentresultsinsupportoftheaboveassumption.33ResearchquestionsHowdoagoodlearnerandapoorlearnercarryoutL2learningactivities(i.e.Listening,speaking,reading,writingandlearningnewwords)?Whatarethemainreasonsthatcanaccountfortheirdifferentlearningbehaviors?34
