Promoting Autonomy through Flashcards for University EFL Learners

This study explored whether flashcards could be used as a tool to improve EFL students' autonomous learning behaviors.Oneclassroom of students used the vocabulary worksheets provided in the textbook for their out-of-class learning while another classroom ofstudents were required to create flashcards to use outside of their classroom.The two classrooms of students received the same instruc-tion on using techniques for their learning.The required components were words,part of speech,and Chinese definition.Any additionalinformation that the students had added without teachers' requirement was defined as autonomous behavior.At the end of the semester,vocabulary worksheets and flashcards were collected for exploring traits of autonomous behavior.Results indicated that the open-endednature of the flashcards facilitates students in testing out a variety of autonomous behaviors,although some techniques were rarely usedand some observed behaviors were not maintained consistently throughout the experiment.

浅谈小学英语低年段单词学习法

传统的单词记忆方法枯燥机械,最大的弊端是花费很大力气记下来的单词又很快忘记了。学生极容易产生厌倦的情绪,昨天晚上背了好久的单词今天到学校就忘记了,学生体会不到记忆单词对带来的成就感,无法对这样的方法保持持续热情。那么如何有效学习单词,如何花短的时间高效记忆单词,笔者通过长期浏览和关注各种相关的国外先进理念总结出一个非常有效的单词学习方法供广大执教者和学习者参考学习,这个方法叫 worksheets 练习模板。这个方法无论在学校还是在家里都可以让学习单词变成一件轻松有趣的事情。对于 3 岁以下的孩子,英语学习可以称之为英语启蒙,这种启蒙主要通过长期磨英语耳朵和亲子互动来培养孩子语感和兴趣。3 岁以上的孩子就可以接触字母和 phonics,5,6 岁的孩子就可以给他们逐渐加强单词量。Worksheets 的难度和孩子的年龄有直接的关系,在国外 Pre-school 幼儿园是使用Worksheets 最小的年龄段,随着孩子年龄的增长小学阶段则是应用 worksheets 最为重要的阶段。

信息家电——HDD和Flash Card一比高低

入夏以来,硬磁盘驱动器产品HDD在PC机市场上,一直处于低价位态势。购买PC机的客户只花不足1000元人民币,便可选购到相当好的HDD(15GB.7200转/分,而且内置的2MB缓存)。然而,同样是通用记录媒体的固态快闪存储器卡则行情很好,由它装备的MP3播放机在市场上出尽风头。发人深省的是,作为高速且大容量的HDD,以其每存储位单价绝对优势难道真的不能同快闪存储器卡在(?)频设备市场上抗衡吗?
