辽宁师范大学硕士学位论文摘要随着我国经济的发展和网络时代的到来,英语教学也在不断地适应时代的要求。语法作为英语的基本要素之一,在英语语言学习中一直受到广泛关注。随着课程改革的不断推进,语法教学也暴露出许多问题,比如学生倾向于死记硬背,无法将所学到的语法知识自如地应用到特定的语境当中去;教师的语法教学方法单一、老套,扼杀了学生的学习兴趣等。传统的语法教学亟待改进。近年来翻转课堂在国外兴起并传入我国,它颠覆了传统课堂的教学顺序,加上我国网络教育平台的迅速发展,为学生和教师提供了丰富的教学与学习资源。这种全新的教学模式能否改善高中英语语法教学的效果是一个值得探究的课题。本研究以建构主义学习理论、掌握学习理论以及新媒体背景下发展起来的“微学习”理论为理论依托,将翻转课堂教学模式和微视频相结合应用到高中语法教学中,采取定量和定性的方法探讨以下三个问题:(1)翻转课堂对学生英语语法成绩的影响如何?(2)学生对英语语法学习的积极性和自主性有哪些改变?(3)学生对翻转课堂的反馈是怎样的?本文基于对翻转课堂以及微视频资源使用的相关理论和实践应用的研究,以笔者所任教的两个班级为研究对象,实验班采用翻转课堂,控制班采用传统语法教学,采用实验法、问卷调查法、个别访谈法和教师日志等对研究对象进行了为期半年的实验教学。共进行了两次语法测试,两次综合测试,两次问卷调查和三次的个别访谈,最后采用社会科学统计软件(SPSS.20)对所得数据进行统计和分析。研究结果显示,基于微视频的翻转课堂语法教学受到了学生的广泛欢迎和认可。这种新的教学模式明显地提高了学生的语法成绩,有效地促进了语法在语言技能中的运用,进而提高了学生的综合语言能力,包括听、说、读、写等方面。课前的自主学习以及课堂上的各种活动、自我探究和合作学习等很大程度上满足了学生的个体需要,更有效地解决了学习语法中遇到的问题和困难,改善了学生对英语语法学习的态度,提高了学生的兴趣和自信,培养了学生的自主学习和合作学习能力以及竞争意识等。除此之外,笔者对基于微视频的翻转课堂中可能存在的问题提出了一些建议,希望能对翻转课堂的采用和研究提供参考。关键词:翻转课堂;微视频;高中英语语法教学I
