英语词块强化注意教学模式的实证研究

An Empirical Study on Noticing-enhanced English Lexical Chunk Approach

注意力是促使语言输入转化为内在知识的必要和充分条件。本研究通过为期一学期的教学实验,对英语词块强化注意教学模式和传统教学模式的教学效果进行了比较,探究了词块强化注意教学模式的有效性。结果发现:该模式教学能显著提高词块应用水平、英语综合水平和作文水平,而对听力和阅读理解水平的提高则无明显效果。研究证实:通过教学手段提高和强化输入词块的频率与突显程度、以及设计以词块输出为中心的教学任务可以促进词块由输入转变成内在知识、提高语言加工深度,从而提高语言产出水平。

Input does not become intake for language learning unless it is noticed. The effect of noticing-enhanced lexical chunk teaching approach is compared with traditional approach in a one-semester experiment. Results show that the new approach is superior to traditional approach in improving students＇ performance in the use of lexical chunk, their comprehensive English level and writing, while no significant difference is found in listening and reading comprehension. Teaching tasks focused on the enhancement of frequency and saliency of lexical chunks in input and output are proven to be effective in facilitating the lexical chunk＇s change from input into intake, promoting language processing depth and improving language production proficiency.
