英語(yǔ)教師課堂教學(xué)建構(gòu)

前言

　　此書(shū)基于我在英國(guó)諾丁漢大學(xué)完成的博士學(xué)位論文，并作了進(jìn)一步的豐厚和拓展。在西方的語(yǔ)言（外／二語(yǔ)）教學(xué)研究中，教師認(rèn)知研究始于20世紀(jì)90年代。在此前的語(yǔ)言教學(xué)研究中教師被視為語(yǔ)言教學(xué)理論的執(zhí)行者。受到普通教育研究領(lǐng)域的重要研究成果的影響，語(yǔ)言教學(xué)研究者已普遍認(rèn)同教師本身——而非僅僅其課堂行為在教學(xué)中的核心地位，研究教師自身的信念和知識(shí)對(duì)于理解和改進(jìn)語(yǔ)言教學(xué)具有重要意義。盡管語(yǔ)言教師認(rèn)知這一研究領(lǐng)域迅速發(fā)展，但針對(duì)中國(guó)高等院校英語(yǔ)教師認(rèn)知的研究仍顯匱乏。此書(shū)正是將一組中國(guó)大學(xué)英語(yǔ)教師作為研究對(duì)象，其目的是發(fā)現(xiàn)并分析他們對(duì)于各自英語(yǔ)課堂教學(xué)的理解和詮釋。與此同時(shí)，現(xiàn)有相關(guān)研究往往只限于發(fā)現(xiàn)教師對(duì)其課堂行為的解釋，其結(jié)果是某些教學(xué)原則或教學(xué)意圖的呈現(xiàn)，但針對(duì)語(yǔ)言教師課堂教學(xué)觀念構(gòu)架的研究卻很少。此書(shū)正是以此為研究重點(diǎn)，并力圖從英語(yǔ)教師自身經(jīng)歷和所處教學(xué)環(huán)境的角度解釋、分析其教學(xué)觀的形成。此項(xiàng)研究對(duì)于大學(xué)英語(yǔ)課堂教學(xué)的改進(jìn)、英語(yǔ)教師教育和發(fā)展具有重要意義。

內(nèi)容概要

本書(shū)首先回顧并分析語(yǔ)言教師認(rèn)知領(lǐng)域的相關(guān)文獻(xiàn)，在此基礎(chǔ)上發(fā)現(xiàn)研究問(wèn)題，論證研究方法，分析并呈現(xiàn)研究資料，解釋研究發(fā)現(xiàn)并討論其意義。在文獻(xiàn)回顧、研究資料的分析以及研究結(jié)果的解釋和討論過(guò)程中同時(shí)涉及教育學(xué)和外語(yǔ)教學(xué)研究領(lǐng)域的現(xiàn)有成果和理論，并闡述此項(xiàng)研究對(duì)相關(guān)領(lǐng)域現(xiàn)有研究的貢獻(xiàn)意義。    本書(shū)對(duì)所采用的研究方法作了包括從哲學(xué)基礎(chǔ)到資料采集、分析手段在內(nèi)的較為詳盡的論述，為研究英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的英語(yǔ)專業(yè)研究生、研究工作者和從事定性研究的社科領(lǐng)域研究生、研究工作者提供了有益參考。書(shū)中呈現(xiàn)了不同的英語(yǔ)教學(xué)觀念和教學(xué)方法，可供英語(yǔ)教師和英語(yǔ)專業(yè)學(xué)生思考、比較、借鑒，對(duì)于英語(yǔ)教師教育和英語(yǔ)教師專業(yè)發(fā)展具有重要意義。

章節(jié)摘錄

　　4. Research Design　　Following Cohen et al. s （2000） suggestion on the main stagesinvolved in qualitative research, I now discuss the following issuespertaining to my research: ethics, sampling, role of researcher, datacollection,　data analysis,　and generalisability,　reliability,　andvalidity.　　4.1　Ethics　　For this study I have abided by the British EducationalResearch Associations Revised Ethical Guidelines for EducationalResearch　（2004）　as required by the School of Education,Nottingham University,　and gained approval from the SchoolResearch Ethics Committee of my Research Ethics Proposal. I havealso consulted the research methodology literature for the issue ofethics. I discuss the following ethical concerns in particular.　　Bryman （2001） points out that ethical concerns in socialresearch tend　to　revolve　around　four main　areas:　harm　toparticipants, lack of informed consent, invasion of privacy, anddeception, In order not to harm the participants in my research,particular care was taken in maintaining confidentiality,　andparticipants real names were withheld - the names that appear inthis book are pseudonyms. However, there are still the issues ofidentifiability and traceability （Cohen et al., 2000） - informationabout the participants learning and work experiences may rendertheir identity identifiable. A related issue here is the ownership ofthe data and the results. Participants were ensured that the data andthe results would not be linked in any way to institutional ordepartmental use.
