微信支持下的英语专业写作课反思性学习研究

A Study of We-Chat-Based Reflective Learning in the Writing Course for English Majors

英语专业写作教学存在课堂中忽视学生们的交流与讨论、没有达到对学生思辨能力培养目的的难题。针对这些问题,研究者采用混合研究范式,在某外国语大学英语专业写作课上实施了以微信为媒介的反思性学习活动,通过调查问卷与访谈等手段,收集数据评价这一学习模式的效果。研究结果发现:该学习模式能促进学生之间互相学习、够督促学生课上听讲,课下反思,提高了学生的思辨能力,为写作的后续发展打下了良好的基础。

Writing teaching for English majors has the problem of omitting the communication and discussion of students in class,thus failing to achieve the purpose of cultivating students' critical thinking ability. This paper,based on We-Chat in a EFL writing class for English majors at a foreign language university in Northeast China,implemented a reflective learning activity. Data collection was used to evaluate the effect of this learning model through questionnaires and interviews. The results indicate that this learning model may promote students to learn from each other,supervise and urge students to focus on lectures in class,reflect after class,improve students' critical thinking ability,and lay a good foundation for the following development of EFL writing.
