摘要
Group work has been being widely welcomed by scholars and college English teachers when it was introduced into Chinese college English classrooms which usually contain more than 60 students,probably because group discussions or cooperative work provide more chances for Chinese college students to involve in the class teaching and learning and get them more opportunities to practice their oral English so as to promote their English competent.However,little attention has been paid to what kind of group work arrangement is more effective on making students more engaged in the task as teachers expect in China.This investigation will help answer the question that whether students should be informed their roles in group work through longitudinal qualitative research,the class observation and interviews specifically.Comparison will be taken between two classes to figure out the better way of arranging group work in college English classes.
