影子跟读训练对英语专业学习者听写策略影响的实证研究

An Empirical Study on the Effect of Shadowing Exercise on the Dictation Strategies of English Majors

以两个平行班为被试,两个班接受相同的教学内容,但实验组增加了为期三个月的影子跟读训练,以探讨影子跟读训练是否能提高听写技能,以及对听写策略是否有促进作用。实验发现,影子跟读训练有助于提高学生的听写技能,且接受了影子跟读训练的学生能够更多地运用元认知策略与认知策略。

The present study examines whether the inclusion of shadowing exercise to a language curriculum can improve dictation skills and whether it has a positive effect on dictation strategies. Two groups of students were used as the subjects of this research. During the course of the study,both the control and experimental groups were presented with the same teaching content,but the experimental group concurrently received three months of additional training in shadowing. We found that shadowing exercise helped to improve the dictation skills of students and those students who have received training in shadowing tended to apply better defined metacognitive and cognitive strategies to their learning.
