非英语专业本科生线上课期间英语学习动机衰退研究

A study on the decline of English learning motivation of non-English major undergraduates

通过定性和定量相结合的方法,以某高校188名非英语专业理工科学生为研究对象,探讨线上课程条件下学生学习动机衰退的因素和应对策略。结果表明学习动机衰退是非英语专业学生在线上课期间面临的普遍问题。他们学习动机衰退的主要原因由学能、兴趣、信心、教学内容与外部环境等内外部因素引起。面对学习动机的下降,他们大多采取消极态度应对,少数通过一些比较积极的策略进行应对。因此,要培养学生自主学习能力和习惯,提高教师线上教学水平,加强线上教学开发与管理。
