国内外语有效教学研究十年热点及趋势分析

A Quantitative Analysis of the Research Focuses and Trends of Effective EFL Teaching in China( 2005-2014)

选取2005-2014年发表于国内核心期刊的有关外语有效教学的论文建立语料库,通过提取关键词丛,对国内外语有效教学研究的热点及趋势进行统计分析。研究发现,课堂教学尤其是分层教学、自主学习、任务型教学等研究受到较多关注。语码转换、建构主义、元认知及读写技能教学的研究受到重视。评价体系尤其是形成性评价的研究最为突出。另外,定性研究依然是主流研究方法,个案研究和调查访谈、教学实验等实证研究呈上升趋势。

This paper adopts word frequency and content analysis to investigate the research focuses and trends of ef- fective EFL teaching in China based on the corpus of the papers published on Chinese Core Journals from 2005 to 2014. Statistics reveals that classroom teaching, in particular, teaching by stratification, autonomous learning, and task-based instruction were thoroughly studied. Meanwhile, code switching, constructivism, meta-cognition and reading and writing skill development are frequently discussed. Furthermore, evaluation system, especially formative evaluation has been a re- search focus in the past ten years. Moreover, qualitative study has been the mainstream method, whereas there is a notice- able increase in the number of case studies and empirical studies like survey, interviews, and teaching experiments. The findings of this paper can be significant reference for further studies on effective EFL teaching.
