数字素养与英语自主学习研究

The study of digital literacy and English learner autonomy

数字技术和互联网的迅猛发展突破了过去英语学习资源匮乏的瓶颈和学习地域的限制,也使自主学习模式发生了变化。本文以243名英语专业本科生为研究对象,以调查问卷为研究工具,从应用技能、获取知识、分享与交流、解决难题和娱乐放松五个维度,调查了他们的数字素养现状。同时,从学习愿望和自我管理两个维度,调查了他们的自主学习情况。调查结果表明,受试学生具备一定的数字素养能力,拥有较高的学习愿望,自我管理能力则处于中等水平。调查结果还显示,学生的数字素养与其自主学习能力呈现正相关关系。该研究结果对引导英语教师注重培养学生数字素养,提高英语自主学习能力具有一定的启迪意义。
