基于虚拟社区分项思维训练的英语写作教学研究

A Study On The Teaching of English Writing Based on The Training of Subentry Thinking in Virtual Community

本研究以非英语专业的两个自然班78名学生为研究对象,运用实验研究方法探究基于虚拟社区的分项思维训练和学生英语写作水平之间的关系。所谓分项思维训练就是将批判性思维能力的几个分项设计成与课堂内容高度融合的思维训练任务,写作前在虚拟社区围绕以上任务展开同伴提问的互动方式进行训练。研究发现该训练模式能有效地提高学生英语写作水平。实验班学生的文章观点和语言表述能力得到了明显的提高,而支撑材料和逻辑结构方面有所改善但不显著。

in this study,78 students from two natural classes of non-English majors are taken as the research objects,and the relationship between sub item thinking training based on virtual community and students'English writing level is explored by using experimental research methods.The so-called sub item thinking training is to design several sub items of critical thinking ability into a thinking training task which is highly integrated with the classroom content.Before writing,the virtual community carries out interactive training of peer questioning around the above tasks.The findings are as follows:1)this training model can effectively improve students'English writing level.2)The experimental class students'opinions and language expression ability have been significantly improved,while the supporting materials and logical structure have been improved but not significantly.3)In order to improve the logical structure of students'articles and the sufficiency of argumentation,thinking training can be extended for a long time.The research shows that the virtual space thinking training based on peer cooperation can improve students'English writing level.
