基于录像分析背景下的代数课堂教学语言研究——以两堂《分式的乘除》课堂实录为例

量化分析《分式的乘除》两堂录像课,参考弗兰德提出的"Flanders互动分析系统"师生语言分类,将代数课堂教学语言进行分类,并就不同教学环节,对教学语言比较分析,得出以下结论:(1)课堂教学中,教师的教学语言所用时间占有很高的比例,各种类型的教学语言的时间比例不同,以提问性语言为主;(2)代数课堂教学中两位教师在各个教学环节中教学语言所占时间比例不同,例题讲解、练习讲解环节教师语言所占的比例最大;(3)代数课堂教学各个环节中,教师大多采用提问性为主的教学语言;(4)课堂教学中,应适当减少命令性语言和提问性语言,适当增加启发性语言、反馈性语言和激励性语言,以提高教学效果.

A Case of Generativity in a Culturally and Linguistically Complex English Language Arts Classroom

This article examines an ESL English language arts teacher’s conceptions of linguistic diversity, literacy learning and her role as teacher in a culturally and linguistically complex classroom. It further examines her processes of learning about, and developing curricular and pedagogical innovations to meet, her students’ learning needs. The successes and paradoxes of, as well as constraints to, those efforts are explored. The paper uses Ball’s theory of generativity and recent research on effective English language arts instruction in culturally and linguistically complex classrooms to facilitate analysis. It offers some implications for teachers’ development of generativity for teaching culturally and linguistically diverse students.     

Teaching and Learning about Language Change (Part One)

With particular reference to recent developments (including some in communication‐technology), this first of two papers explores the nature of ‘language change’ – its kinds, mechanisms and effects – and some attitudes towards it. It then suggests a case for teaching and learning about language change (bearing in mind, particularly, students in the 11–16 age range). The second paper, which will appear in Changing English 18:2, suggests approaches of two broad kinds and contexts: (1) as opportunities arise in undertaking other work; and (2) within planned, ‘set‐piece’ activities. Extensive notes/references are offered as support to teachers.     

Improving Writing Skills of Thai EFL Students by Recognition of and Compensation for Factors of L 1 to L2 Negative Transfer

In this study, we examined the likelihood of a TAME （extended technology acceptance model）, in which the interrelationships among computer self-efficacy, perceived usefulness, intention to use and self-reported use of computer-mediated technology were tested. In addition, the gender- and age-invariant of its causal structure were evaluated. The data were collected from a self-reported questionnaire administered to 477 administrative staff of a public university in Malaysia. The results of structural equation modeling supported the adequacy of TAME. Although the TAME＇s causal structure was applicable to both male and female staff, age group appeared to moderate the structural relationships among the constructs of interest.

新世纪以来世界各国语文课程标准,结构模式及内容编排各具个性特色,具有代表性的有三种:"能力说"特色;"内容说"与"能力说"兼具特色;"课程设计与评价整合"特色。我国现行《语文课程标准》在结构模式及内容呈现方面都有需要改进之处。突出的问题是:缺乏规范教学内容的"内容标准"和便于操作的"能力标准";忽略母语学习中的重要内容,如词汇语法等;使用者必须在研究解读中改进并完善。
