网络环境下基于协作学习的大学英语写作教学研究

The Development of Student Writing Ability via Collaborative-Learning-Based Writing in a Computer/Web Environment

本研究以中国高校大学英语教学改革为大背景，以协作学习理论为依据，以计算机网络技术为支撑，尝试了计算机网络环境下基于协作学习的英语写作能力的培养，试图探索这种新型英语写作教学方法是否优于传统英语写作教学、是否具有可操作性。研究以对比实验为主、访谈为辅，采用SPSS11．0对实验组和控制组的后测数据进行了统计分析。结果显示，计算机网络环境下基于协作学习的英语写作教学显著优于传统英语写作教学，不仅有利于英语写作能力的培养，而且可以促进口语水平的提高，具有可操作性。

With the reform of college English language teaching as background, this study, based on theories of collaborative learning and supported by computer/web technology, is to find whether collaborative-learning-based writing in a computer/web environment is better than traditional writing teaching. A comparative experimental research method was used in the study and SPSS 11.0 was adopted to test the data collected in the posttest taken by the experimental and con- trol groups. The result shows that the collaborative-learning-based writing in a computer/web environment has more advantages than traditional writing teaching and is helpful to the improvement of student writing ability; it is also workable in college English language teaching.
