高职英语专业学生语言学习策略培训

The Training of the Learning Strategy for English Majors at a Vocational Education Institute

本文通过学习策略问卷调查、学习策略训练、学生周记以及测试等方式,运用定量和定性的研究方法,分析了81名高职生学习策略的使用情况,并根据其学习策略使用情况,有针对性地对其进行了为期16周的阅读策略训练。结果表明: (1)学生有意识地使用学习策略的频度较低。相比较而言,学生较多地使用认知策略,而自我评介和自我调空策略等元认知策略则使用甚少; (2)阅读课堂中的学习策略训练有效而可行; (3)认知和元认知策略相结合的训练,可极大地提高学生的阅读理解能力。因此,本文认为,结合实际教学进行学习策略培训是提高学生语言学习能力的有效途径。

On the basis of the literature review, this paper focuses on the study of the effectiveness of learning strategy training with Chinese EFL students in reading classes at a vocational education institute. Principal findings from this investigation reveal that (i) only a few subjects consciously employ learning strategies. Quite a few use cognitive strategy, and only a small group use meta-cognitive strategies such as self-evaluating and self-adjusting; (ii) this learning strategy training is effective and feasible; and (iii) the combination of the meta-cognitive and cognitive strategies can improve students' reading ability. It is believed that the teachers can play an important role to train students to use strategies crucial for learning and help them to improve their learning efficiently.
