Abstract
Since Dewey developed the concept of “critical thinking”, many scholars abroadhave carried out a series of studies about improving students' critical thinking skills ineducation field. In the 1980s,critical thinking became the target of higher educationprograms in such foreign countries as the US and Canada. It has gained its widespreadattention in China only in recent years. But there are only few studies about it ineducation field. Our traditional English teaching method pays much attention to thetraining of students' linguistic knowledge and language skills but ignores thecultivation of students' critical thinking abilities. In the process of skill practice,teachers often stress the importance of memorizing vocabulary and imitating skillsrigidly,but neglect the students' abilities in analyzing problems and putting forwardinnovative solutions. Therefore, English writing teaching is affected by this andmerely attaches emphasis to train students' reading and writing skills. There are fewstudies which aim at systematically cultivating students' analysis, synthesis, summary,comparison and reasoning skills while they are writing. Therefore,this study aims atdesigning some writings tasks and teaching strategies which can be used to fostercollege students' critical thinking awareness and promote students' all-rounddevelopment.
According to six critical thinking skills,this study was carried out by requiringstudents to hand in an argumentation. All participants in this study are non-Englishmajor college freshmen from a 211 key university. The revised version of Rubric forQualitative Critical Thinking Skills Instrument was used in this study. Withquantitative and qualitative analysis,writing experiment is conducted within a wholesemester to collect data concerning students' learning behavior. Reading-to-write isused in experimental class while traditional method is adopted in control class. Thewriting scores by the experimental and control class were statistically processed bysoftware SPSS 19.0. And also the interview was launched in some of students inexperimental class to assess students' critical thinking abilities reflected in theirwritings-The final analysis indicated that EGAP writing model exerted a significantlypositive influence in improving students' critical thinking skills, especially in arousingstudents' writing enthusiasm and critical thinking awareness. Compared with controlclass, students in experimental class made big progress in writing competence. Inaddition, this study put forward some reform proposals to the teaching of Englishwriting. The study is of great value to instruct students to employ critical thinkingskills in their writing.
Abstract
A large body of research has been conducted on the effects of technology-enhancedEnglish vocabulary learning since the 1960s (Marty, 1981)。 However, no consensus hasbeen reached yet (Choo, Lin, & Pandian,2012; Mohsen & Balakumarohsen, 2011)。
Despite the fact that some narrative reviews have evaluated and explored thesecontradictory results, this study aims at quantifying the overall effectiveness oftechnology-enhanced English vocabulary learning with a different approach to review:meta-analysis and performing in-depth moderator analyses of learning method and testtype further.
Totally, twenty effect sizes from thirteen pieces of primary research are obtainedafter collecting related literature published or unpublished in recent ten years via fourchannels and selecting through three filters. Later, all the primary research is coded anddata are computed in random-effects model with software ComprehensiveMeta-Analysis.
Results show that: (1) Technology has a positively large effect on Englishvocabulary learning according to Cohen's standards as proposed in 1992 (g = 1.26,witha 95% confidential interval of [0.86, 1.66])。 (2) Learning methods (intentional learning,incidental learning, and integrated learning) have impacts on the overall effectiveness.
Heterogeneity exists in the three learning methods (g = 9.22,p = 0,01 < 0.05),Effectiveness of intentional learning, incidental learning and integrated learning is ^ =0.61, g 二 2.14, g = 0.98 respectively. Incidental learning under technology-enhancedenvironment yields the largest effectiveness on English vocabulary learning. (3) Testtypes (recognition tests, recall tests,recognition + recall tests) also have impacts on theoverall effectiveness. The three test types are heterogeneous as well {Q = 17.04, p =0.000 < 0.05)。 Recognition tests, recall tests, and recognition + recall tests have effectsizes of 3.59,0.71 and 0.37 respectively. Technology-enhanced English vocabularylearning achieves the largest effectiveness in recognition tests.
Abstract
The present study, which is based on the Competing Values Framework (i.e. CVF:a framework to identify the organizational effectiveness and to define organizationalculture), aims to investigate English teachers, teaching motivation at universities, theirperception of the organizational culture in the target university,their professionalaspiration and how they affect each other. The research questions to be addressed are asfollows: (1) How do the English teachers perceive the organizational culture at theirworkplace? (2) How much effort will the teachers pay for their professionalengagement and aspiration? (3) What kinds of motivation do the English teachers in thetarget university appear to have? (4) How will the organizational culture and theprevious experience affect teachers' motivation?
This study employed four different questionnaires as the research instruments,including one demographic questionnaire and three research questionnaires, i.e. thedemographic questionnaire, the Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (i.e. theOCAI) (Cameron & Quinn, 1999),the Professional Engagement and CareerDevelopment Aspiration-scale (i.e. the PECDA-scale) (Watt & Richardson, 2008b),andthe Work Tasks Motivation Scale for Teachers Teaching (i.e. the WTMST) (Fernet et al.,2008),to investigate the above mentioned research questions. The whole investigationtook roughly 12 weeks and involved three stages: the preparation stage,the pilot study,and the main study.
The findings of the present study show that most of the teachers are intrinsicallymotivated and with identified regulation influenced by the performance culture and theclan culture which are the dominant culture types of the target research site. Results alsoindicate that the overseas experience and length of teaching experience affect teachers'perception of tixe organizational culture and motivation. The participants who haveoverseas experience tend to be more with the sense of professionalism, moreintrinsically motivated and be more confident with their competence in the academicarea; and the ones who have longer years of teaching experience are with moreidentified regulation and introjected motivation and are more committed and moreassured of staying in the education field. The participants in the target universitybasically belong to the highly engaged persisters,and the male teachers expect to be theleadership.
Abstract
Owing to the economic, social and academic needs as well as the advantages of EGAP(General Academic Purpose in Chinese College English) itself, there exist 这 great deal ofnecessity and feasibility for applying English for EGAP class. It is our understanding thatwriting plays an extremely important role in the course of EGAP and genre is a quiteinfluential factor in improving students5 writing competency. However,the investigation ofstudents' current writing situation shows that being deeply influenced by traditional writingteaching methods which emphasize grammar and vocabulary; the students have littleknowledge about genre approach theoretically or systematically and lack the awareness ofgenre. Because of this,it becomes necessary to put forward an English writing teachingapproach which is effective as well as applicable to the situation in China so as to enhancetheir writing competence.
This paper firstly gives a brief introduction to the developing trend of EGAP bydiscussing its necessity and applicability in China and the main views of two schools of genretheory, the tiieoretical foundation and genre-based approaches of three main schools of genrestudy and practice. And also,their characteristics are compared and the adaptability inChinese College EGAP class is analyzed, based on which it puts forward a modifiedGenre-based approach in EGAP writing class in order to enhance students' genre awarenessand improve their writing skills.
To achieve this, two non-English major classes of freshmen in East China University ofScience and Technology (ECUST) have been selected as the experimental class andcontrolled class, and the research lasts one semester. The Genre-based approach is applied inthe experimental class following a modified Genre-based approach. And a comparison hasbeen made on the same subject at the beginning and the end of the semester and thecomparison and contrast between the experimental class and controlled class have also beenmade. Owing to various factors,such as learning motivation, different students show variedextent of acceptance to certain teaching approaches. Therefore, emphasis has not only beenput on the overall changes,but also on the individual differences.
There are three hypotheses:
1. Can Genre-based approach enhance students' genre awareness? 2. Can “genreawareness” really improve students' writing ability in EGAP? If the students can get overallimprovement, is there any difference in gender and the students with diverse learningaptitudes because of the individual difference? If some students fail to improve, what's thepossible reason behind it? 3. Will Chinese students accept and adapt to Genre-basedApproach?
Three sets of data from six writing assignments, writing in final-term examination andquestionnaires are collected and analyzed with the help of the software SPSS 19.0. And thestudy indicates that: (1) Genre-based approach has a significant effect in sensitizing students'genre awareness, improving holistic writing competence; (2) during the whole experimentalprocess, girls have a stable superiority over boys, however, boys' improvement fluctuation iscomparatively obvious; (3) students of medium efficiency have the greatest potential to makebig improvement; (4) Unavoidably, in this research there are some students who fail to gainimprovement in terms of writing ability or get changed in terms of writing notions, andthrough analysis it has been found that the main objective reasons are: the difficulty ofwriting itself,the differences of culture and ways of thinking between east and west,thelimited teaching period, etc.; and subjective reasons mainly come from: the limitedcompetence of students themselves, the lack of interest in English writing, etc(5) aoverwhelming majority of students are liable to accept this approach and able to adapt to itpretty well, yet acceptation is not absolutely accompanied by adaptation; (6) feedback is adispensable part in English writing teaching, and more specific feedback will bring strongermotivation in students' self-correcting and developing;In the end,the author presents some limitations in her research and hopes that this cangive some hints and tips to further research in EFL writing classes.
Abstract
In college English listening & speaking classrooms, language and other semioticsystems cooperate together to help students construct meaning. It can be reflected inthe design of textbooks and the use of audios, videos and images, etc. Thus, in thisthesis, the theoretical foundation is the theory of multimodal discourse analysis (MDA)derived from Systemic Functional Linguistics and Social Semiotics. The essence ofMDA is that other semiotic resources such as: images, audios, etc. are as important aslanguage in the meaning-making system. Visual Grammar, Acoustical Grammar andthe integrated frameworks of MDA are the main analysis approaches in this thesis.
Meanwhile, the results of the teaching investigation and the MDA for textbooksare the practical foundation for the multimodal teaching design, providing feasibleand effective suggestions in this thesis. According to the results, it can be concludedthat students have more or less realized multimodality in this course and argue thatmultimodality should be used in moderation; multimodal classroom activities, socialcontent, etc. should be brought into the class; teachers should remind students to payattention to images, fonts change and other multimodal factors in textbooks.
Therefore, when conducting the multimodal teaching design, attention should bepaid to: (1) Modalities influence each other with clear priorities in this course. (2)Words modality and acoustical modality are the primary modalities, while othermodalities are just used as tools to provide supplementary information and to improveteaching efficiency. (3) The chosen modalities should provide supplementaryinformation to make the learning material more easily understood and help studentsconcentrate. Then, on the basis of the above principles and the writer's teachingexperience, a sample teaching design has been worked out, then its' feasibility andeffectiveness have been verified by an empirical study with the method of interview.
Abstract
Degree adverbs play a crucial role in daily language communication. However,owing to their wide varieties and similar meanings, it is hard for language learners toreally master their meanings and usages.
With the aid of AntConc 3.4.lw and based on the corpora of FROWN (TheFreiburg-Brown Corpus of American English),FLOB (The Freiburg-LOB Corpus ofBritish English) and CLEC (Chinese Learner English Corpus), the study aims tocompare the actual use of common English degree adverbs in terms of semanticprosody between Chinese EFL learners and native English speakers. The researchprocedures consist of two steps. First, AntConc 3.4.lw is launched to extractconcordance lines of the target node words in each corpus and the semantic featuresof the node words' collocates are analyzed; then, the semantic prosodies of these nodewords are summarized and comparisons are made between the two corpora.
The results indicate that there are differences as well as similarities betweennative English speakers and Chinese learners in their use of semantic prosody.
Chinese EFL learners tend to underuse the negative semantic prosodies of fairly,highly, and totally?,overuse the negative semantic prosodies of extremely; and misusethe semantic prosody of terribly. The results also show that some problems exist inChinese learners' use of semantic prosodies of degree adverbs, and the reasons mayinclude their first language transfer, intralingual transfer, and the lack of informationabout the semantic prosody in dictionaries and textbooks.
学术论文摘要格式规范
导语:学术论文摘要的格式规范是怎样的呢?摘要是一份文献内容的准确压缩,不加解释或评论,是论文的重要组成部分。下面是我分享的学术论文摘要的格式规范,欢迎阅读!
1 摘要的定义与三类摘要的写法
国际标准ISO214-1976指出:摘要是一份文献内容的准确压缩,不加解释或评论。中国国家标准规定:摘要是报告、论文的内容不加注释和评论的简短陈述。摘要是读者判断论文价值,判断论文是否值得阅读的依据。会议所征摘要是决定是否录用全文的依据。写好摘要是科技人员写作所必备的基本功。如果一篇内容价值较高的学术论文,其摘要写得平平淡淡,不能体现论文的特点和学术价值,将带来一系列不利影响:失去被刊载的机会,需要本文的读者不会阅读全文,从而失去应有的学术影响;对中文期刊论文而言,难以进入国际检索系统等。
摘要分为报道性摘要、指示性摘要、报道—指示性摘要、结构性摘要等种类。学术期刊多采用报道性摘要,特别是试验研究和有定量数据的论文。对新内容较少,或数据少的论文用指示性摘要或报道—指示性摘要。摘要的内容一般由3部分组成:研究目的,研究方法,研究结果或结论。中文摘要一般200-300字,外文摘要字数不超过250个实词。摘要的详简程度和篇幅大小根据具体情况及要求而定,如期刊论文摘要、会议征稿摘要、博士学位论文摘要的差别很大。期刊论文摘要通常位于署名和单位地址之后。
1.1 报道性摘要
报道性摘要要求反映作者的主要成果,提供比较完整的定量及定性信息。篇幅一般为200-300字。示例如下:
示例1: (题名:BiSrCaCuO高温超导纤维)
采用激光加热小基座法(LHPG)成功地制备出BiSrCaCuO超导纤维。它性能稳定,工艺可重复性高。纤维最大长度达60mm,直径范围35-500um,其中细径纤维有挠性。超导纤维的起始转变温度为118K,零电阻温度为87K,临近电流密度为2.5kA/cm2 (77K,H=0,直流电流量)。纤维中超导相(2212相),显微结构有典型的取向性。纤维的超导电性与其生长条件及后处理过程密切相关。首次指出,a轴平行于纤维的轴向。
示例2:(篇名: 约瑟夫森结Alx-Al隧道势垒的实验研究)
通过X光电子能谱、阳极氧化电压谱和FISKE台阶电压的测量,研究了约瑟夫森结中ALOX-AL隧道势垒。发现结的隧道势垒最佳沉积AL层厚度为7nm,AL上形成了ALOX厚度只取决于氧化条件,与沉积AL厚无关,势垒AL氧化物可能含有一个像ALOOH态的OH基团。
1.2 指示性摘要
指示性摘要的目的是使读者对论文有一个概括的了解,适用于新内容较少,或数据少的论文。篇幅一般为50-100字。示例如下:
示例1: (题名 :冷轧槽楔外端与摩擦影响的定量分析)
建立了与Avitzuer不同的连续速度场,经变上限积分与参量积分求的槽楔冷轧变形力上界解解,并侧重定量的讨论了外端与摩擦对变形力的影响。
示例2: (题名 :白薯线虫的防治)
对密西西比州种植的白薯由于根节线虫所引起的问题作了讨论,叙述了1967年由蔬菜收获分公司实验站所进行的商品熏剂和杀虫剂的试验。对行间撒播的施用方法作了比较。列出了包括商品杀线虫剂vorlex、DOW WV W─85、DD和试验的固体杀线虫剂68 138及Dasanit的试验结果。
示例3: (题名:湘江水体中硒的分布)
[目的] 为给综合防治污染提供一定依据,对湘江水体中硒的分布进行了探讨。
[方法] 在湘江上游兴安县至洞庭湖的河口采集了28个底泥样品, 用气相色谱法进行分析。
[结果] 结果表明:湘江底泥已受到不同程度的污染,其中有些硒含量超过本底值数的十倍甚至百倍,大多数样品中硒含量较一般土壤和底泥为高。还分析了污染严重的霞湾港水样,结果表明此段江水中硒含量尚不高,在地面水最高容许浓度范围内。
1.3 报道—指示性摘要
报道—指示性摘要是对论文中价值最高部分内容采用报道性摘要,其余部分以指示性摘要报道。篇幅一般为100-200字。
示例1: (题名:柴油机燃用棉籽油的试验研究)
介绍了不经任何改装的S195型柴油机燃用棉籽油与柴油混合油或纯棉籽油的试验研究情况。结果表明,燃用棉柴混合油或纯棉籽油时,发动机性能良好,无异常现象;适当调整供油提前角、加大循环供油量,可以达到原机功率,而且烟度有所下降。还分析了S195型柴油机在试验工况下的燃烧特性和放热规律。
2 写作中的常见问题
要有摘要与论文分离单独出版的写作思想,对随文摘要,不要认为“全文在后边”,编写摘要可简单、随便。
应用“用(采用)...方法”、“报告了...现状”、“进行了...调查”等记述方法编写摘要。即,要用第三人称编写,不要用第一、二人称编写,不要用“本文”、“我们”、“作者”、 “THIS PAPER"、"THIS ARTICLES"等作为主语。
不用图表、示意图、公式、结构式和非公用的符号和术语。
要采用规范化的名词术语、缩略语、略语、代号、法定计量单位、简化字和标点符号。
避免与标题和引言在用词上明显重复,忌罗列正文中目次,小标题和段落标题,或结论部分的文字。
要排除在本学科领域已成为常识的内容和教材中已有的东西。
除非该论文证实或否定了他人已出版的著作,否则不必引用。
不要作自我评价。如:本文以变量代换为工具,利用高等代数的知识,证明了齐线性微分方程组的降阶定理,给出了一种实际的解题方法。因此,这个结论的证明不仅具有一定的理论意义,而且在解题过程中也具有重要的指导意义。
不要对题名等进行注解。如论文“分类指导重点突破加速农机化步伐”的摘要写成:农机化是农业生产力发展到一定阶段的必然过程,是现代农业的产物,在我国它的发展只能与农村经济发展水平相适用。因此分类指导即根据不同经济力、生产组织形式和现实物质技术条件,进行有效地指导、协调、组织带层次性的农机化生产。重点突破即在提高经济效率的前提下,在“化”水平上有所突破。
3 成功写作摘要的要点
摘要写作成功的诀窍是突出新贡献,并使之尖锐化。用精辟语句使新东西出现在摘要的突出位置。所谓新贡献包括:新技术、新理论、新方法、新观点、新规律、纠正前人错误、解决争议、补充和发展前人成果等。有的作者常常不在摘要中体现重要的研究成果,而到论文的后部分经分析推论等才指明,这是错误的观点和写作方式。
使自己新贡献尖锐化。即区别他人工作和自己新贡献不同之处(如:“想法”、“设想”和“已给出数学定义、模型”等的.区别),使之分离,使自己新东西尖锐化。新贡献不要多谈,要精辟。不能模棱两可,让读者去分析作者的贡献“新”在何处。而应指出来让读者看。但不能自我评价。
知识扩展:毕业论文报道性摘要范文
目的公共卫生硕士学位论文英文摘要是学位论文的重要组成部分,是展示学习者的专业知识和科研能力的重要途径。英文摘要的规范性、准确性、严谨性也直接影响到公共卫生硕士论文的最终评审。为繁荣医学教育,推动公共卫生事业发展,促进公共卫生领域的国际学术交流,撰写高质量的公共卫生专业学术论文英文摘要显得尤为重要。通过对收集的210篇预防医学与流行病学专业的优秀硕士学位论文英文摘要的结构和语言进行分析研究,发现论文英文摘要中存在的语言问题,对其进行确认、分类、统计和分析,探究导致这些语言错误出现的原因及影响因素,并对如何减少和避免这些错误,提高公共卫生硕士专业学位论文英文摘要的语言写作水平提出建议。
方法本研究釆用文献分析法与数理统计法,从公共卫生专业硕士学位论文中,即预防医学与卫生学一级学科下的环境卫生、劳动卫生、放射卫生、营养卫生食品卫生、个人卫生与保健、计划生育与妇幼保健和流行病学与防疫七个专业类别中,分层抽样,随机选取了 210篇优秀硕士学位论文,对其英文摘要的语篇结构、单词量、错误量、错误率和在摘要中出现的10种常见语言错误的分类统计,根据专业不同和错误类别的差异,比较分析可能导致各类语言错误产生的原因。
结果通过查找、确认、统计和分析,得出以下结果:(1)公共卫生硕士学位论文英文摘要总单词平均数为659.7±389.4个,各专业每篇平均单词数为环境卫生专业683.7±265.2个,放射卫生专业670.5±447.3个,劳动卫生专业619.0±300.1个,流行病学与防疫专业642.8±255.8个,营养与食品卫生专业692.7±275.2个,个人卫生与保健专业525.1±243.9个,计划生育与妇幼保健专业784.2±389.4个;(2)公共卫生专业硕士学位论文英文摘要平均每篇的错误数量为5.5±4.4个,每篇错误率(即错误数量/总单词数量)为0.87%±0.71%个。营养卫生食品卫生专业的错误量和错误率最高,环境卫生专业其次,流行病学与防疫专业错误量和错误率最低。
环境卫生专业平均每篇错误量为7.3±4.4个,错误率为1.10%±0.55%;放射卫生专业每篇错误量为5.0±3.1个,错误率为0.75%±0.17%;劳动卫生专业每篇错误量为5.6士3.7个,错误率为0.88%±0.28%;流行病与防疫专业每篇错误量为3.1±4.3个,错误率为0.49%±0.62%;营养卫生食品卫生专业每篇错误量为7.4±3.9个,错误率为1.19%±0.72%;个人卫生与保健专业,每篇错误量为3.7±2.1个,错误率为0.72%±0.39%;计划生育与妇幼保健专业每篇错误量为4.8±3.0个,错误率为0.63%±0.28%; (3)对各类常见语法错误进行分类和统计分析,所得结果为单词拼写错误在摘要中错误率为10.2%,单复数错误在摘要中错误率为11.6%,冠词使用错误在摘要中错误率为7.0%,介词搭配错误在摘要中错误率为9.9%,形容词和副词使用错误在摘要中错误率为8.2%,时态和语态错误在摘要中错误率为15.3%,用词不当(或称选词不当)在摘要在错误率为10.7%,主谓一致在摘要中错误率为6.0%,指代不清在摘要中错误率为8.1%,汉式英语现象(又称中式英语)在摘要中错误率为13.0%.其中时态和语态错误在摘要中错误率最高,其次为汉式英语现象(又称中式英语),主谓一致错误率最少。相关分析结果表明,公共卫生硕士学位论文英文摘要的语言错误出现与摘要写作语篇结构和摘要单词数量无关,七类专业方向在10类常见语法错误方面有差异,差异有显着统计学意义。
结论导致公共卫生硕士学位论文英文摘要中出现多种语言错误的原因是多方面的,分析其中主要原因可能是:大学阶段对公共英语基础知识的学习不够扎实、研究生录取时的英语分数线较低、大学及研究生阶段对于医学专业的英文学习自主性低、研究生自身及导师对学位论文英文摘要不够重视、主要精力都投注于专业学习和实验调查中等等。为提高公共卫生硕士研究生学位论文英文摘要的写作水平,有必要从强化教学、提高自我认识、优化学习方法、加强写作练习与讨论、增进国际交流等多方面入手。
