摘要
This study aims to explore explanation strategies used by a teacher in the context of grammar teaching. Two instruments for collecting data, i.e. interview and a multi-category observation scheme, were used here. The distribution pattern showed that the level of cognitive complexity manifested in the teacher's explanation strategies is determined both by complexity of the grammatical structure dealt with in class and by the level of the learners' language proficiency level. It is hoped that this study can serve as the first step in the process of discovering which explanation strategy embedded in what sort of structure can benefit the understanding of the goal concepts.
本研究对英语语法教学中教师所使用的解释策略进行了观察和总结。数据收集方式有两种:1)访问教师;2)利用观察表进行课堂观察和录音。结果显示教师解释策略所涉及的认知程度取决于要讲解的语法点的复杂程度以及学生的语言水平。这些结果将为进一步探究如何有效地运用策略教授语法提供参考。
