形式教学视域中的语用教学实证研究

An Empirical Study of Pragmatic Instruction within the Realm of FFI

形式教学指涉及语言形式的教学,包括只注重语言形式(FonFS)、意义形式兼顾(FonF)以及形式功能兼顾(FonFF)的三种教学方式。其中,形式功能兼顾的教学理念体现了语言形式和语用功能的有机融合,对外语语用教学具有重要的参考价值。本研究以207名非英语专业大学生为被试,以英语请求语为目的语用形式,研究了上述三种不同形式教学手段对学习者学习语用形式的影响。结果表明,与只注重语言意义(FonM)相比,三种形式教学手段均能在一定程度上促进学习者习得目的语用形式。就三种形式教学而言,形式功能兼顾优于只注重语言形式和意义形式兼顾,只注重语言形式又好于意义形式兼顾。据此,本研究证实了形式功能兼顾语用教学手段的有效性和优越性。

FFI refers to the instruction involving language form,which includes Focus on Forms(FonFS),Focus on Form(FonF),and Focus on Form and Function(FonFF).FonFF intends to integrate language form and function effectively,and has great value for pragmatic teaching of a foreign language.With 207college non-English majors as the participants and English request as the target pragmatic form,the present study explores the effect of different FFI devices on the learners' acquisition of target pragmatic form.The results show that three FFI devices facilitate the learners' acquisition of pragmatic form to some extent compared with the device of Focus on Meaning(FonM).In addition,as to the three FFI devices,FonFF is superior to FonFS and FonF,while FonFS is better than FonF.As a result,the present study verifies the efficiency and superiority of FonFF.
