英语专业学生口语策略、学习风格与成绩相关性研究

论文摘要

近二三十年来,学习策略、学习风格等学习者个体差异的重要因素,受到了外语教学和研究者的极大关注,然而两个因素结合口语学习的研究堪称甚少。本研究在Ellis(1994)的学习者个体差异与学习策略的相互关系模式的基础上,提出了旨在调查口语学习策略,学习风格以及口语学习成绩三者关系的理论框架。通过口语学习策略与学习风格问卷和口语测试对英语专业二年级学生进行实证调查。分析结果表明:(1)口语学习策略使用总体处于中等水平,在口语学习时最常使用的是交际策略,而最不常使用的是认知策略。(2)学习风格的倾向显现多样性,最倾向体验与动觉学习,最不倾向视觉学习。(3)除了独立型学习风格与口语学习策略的相关性不显著外,口语学习策略的使用与学习风格的倾向密切相关。不同学习风格的学习者选择不同的口语学习策略。(4)口语学习策略中元认知策略、认知策略与交际策略的使用对口语学习成绩有显著的影响,口语成绩高的学习者比口语成绩低的学习者更多的使用元认知与认知策略。认知策略对口语学习成绩有一定预测力,而学习风格与口语成绩之间没有直接的关系。论文的最后,本文提出对理论探索、方法研究与实际英语教学等方面的几点启示,指出了研究的局限性和对今后研究的建议。
