本文采用内容分析法,从发展趋势、研究主题和研究方法3方面梳理分析了21世纪以来发表于我国重要学术期刊的学术英语教学相关论文。分析结果显示:(1)我国学术英语教学研究总体呈增长态势;(2)研究主题主要聚焦于课程建设、教学实践、教学定位和学术英语特征,针对教材、评估和教师的研究偏少;(3)研究多采用非实证方法,实证研究以量化范式为主导。文章建议未来学术英语教学研究应拓展视角,注重行动导向、微观层面的研究,运用多样化研究方法。

Through content analysis from the perspectives of development trend,topics and methods,this paper analyzes the studies on teaching of English for Academic Purposes(EAP)published in domestic core journals from 2000 to 2018.The results reveal that:(1)the studies on EAP teaching in China take an upward trend;(2)the studies mainly focus on the curriculum development,teaching practice,teaching positioning and characteristics of EAP,but attach less importance to teaching materials,teaching evaluation and teachers;(3)non-empirical studies outnumber empirical studies,in which the research paradigms are predominantly quantitative.The paper suggests that EAP teaching research should broaden its perspectives,put emphasis on practice-oriented and micro-level studies,and adopt diverse methods in future.
