本研究旨在探討多元化評量在國中英語科實施之情況。教育部於民國93年所提出之「國民小學及國民中學學生成績評量準則」提及，學生的成績評量可參酌建議之十二項評量評定之。本研究藉由問卷設計及訪談的方式進行，旨在了解目前國中英語科老師對多元評量功能的信念，常使用之評量方式，以及評量最常遭遇之困難。其中問卷調查是匯集143位台北市公立國中英語科教師之意見，以統計軟體SPSS 10.0進行敘述性統計、獨立樣本t考驗、單因子變異數分析與薛費法事後分析，並訪談其中5位自願受訪的老師，以質性資料補充說明，獲得結果簡述如下： 1. 國中英語科老師對多元評量功能上的信念，抱持正面的看法； 2. 國中英語課堂上最常採用的三種評量方式依序為：紙筆測驗、作業、口試；教學年資不同的老師，對測驗的選擇有顯著性的差異； 3. 國中英語科老師在實施多元評量時，最常遭遇的困難依序為：學生程度差異大、班級人數多、施測費時；性別、教學年資、以及是否參加過與多元入學相關的研習，對於實施多元評量時的困難，造成顯著性的不同差異。 最後依據所得的結論，對教育相關單位提出具體建議，希望能做為未來落實多元評量的參考。 / The study aims to investigate the implementation of multiple assessments (MA) in the English classes in junior high schools. The MOE proposed the Guidelines of Assessments for Elementary and Junior High School Students in 2004, suggesting 12 modes to evaluate students’ performances. The researcher endeavored to find out junior high school English teachers’ beliefs in MA, the assessments practiced most often in class, and the difficulties hindering teachers in employment. Both questionnaire and interview were used to collect quantitative and qualitative data from 143 English teachers in public junior high schools in Taipei City. Statistic computerization, including descriptive statistics, the independent sample t-test, and ANOVA with Scheffe as the post hoc test if needed, were analyzed, and the findings were presented briefly as follows: 1. In general, junior high school English teachers hold a positive attitude toward the functions of MA; 2. The most common used assessments, in order, are: paper-and-pencil tests, homework, and oral tests; teachers with different seniority reflect significantly different choices of MA in use; 3. In applying MA in class, junior high school English teachers are most hampered by the divergent levels of students in the same class, the large class sizes, and a time consuming; the variables, such as gender, seniority, and workshop-attendance, make significant difference when teachers are encountered with different difficulties in applying MA in class. Finally, based on the findings in this study, some suggestions were made for educational authorities concerned to develop a more mature environment for practicing MA in the future.

本研究旨在探討台北地區高中英文教師對於英語文法教學的信念與實踐。本研究的對象為台北市的高中英文教師，研究方法以質量並重的問卷和訪談為主。問卷共回收146份，主要採用描述性統計分析；訪談人數為6人。研究重點如下:（一）教師信念與教學實務（二）教師信念與教學實務之間的關聯性以及（三）教師的教育背景和研習經驗如何影響教師的信念與實踐。 本研究主要發現如下: 1. 教師在文法教學的角色為幫助學生正確地溝通。 2. 教師的文法教學法主要採取演繹法且經過課前設計。 3. 教師的教學內容主要取決於學生程度及教材。 4. 教師的教學信念與實踐大致符合。 5. 教師的學術背景主要影響教師針對文法教學的時間問題上; 6. 而參加研習會影響教師的信念較顯著，表現在文法教學的方法和內容上。 本研究有助於認識高中英文教師教授文法的信念與教學情形。本研究可促進教師、以及英語教育工作者、教育有關單位對於文法教學實施情形的瞭解，並啟發教師作更有效能的文法教學。

溝通式教學法在英語教學界蔚為主流已有數十年之久。過去的研究亦指出此教學法的實施成效與該實施國家一貫的學習文化具有相當程度的關係。本研究旨在瞭解曾至海外留學的英語教師，因其受到溝通式教學法的影響可能多於在國內進修的教師，他們的信念是否比在國內進修的教師更清楚地顯現在教室行為中。 本研究採用質性研究方法，選擇了三位曾至英美等國取得碩士學位的教師，以及三位在國內進修取得碩士學位的教師。二組教師中各有一位任教於高中一、二、三年級。資料收集主要來源為問卷、訪談及課室觀察。資料分析後比較（1）曾至國外進修教師之信念及教學行為；（2）國內進修教師之信念及教學行為；（3）兩類教師之相同處；（4）兩類教師之相異處。 本研究主要的發現有：所有教師，包括國外及國內進修者，對溝通式教學法都傾向認同，但在課室中卻不是經常用到此教學法，反而是融合傳統的及溝通式教學法的折衷現象較為普遍。至於在教學時，限制溝通式教學法的使用，主要因教學環境因素所致，例如來自考試的壓力、有限的教學時數、及班級人數。另外，海外留學經驗並未對教師信念有所影響。 本研究根據以上四個議題討論結果，在文末進一步提供建議，作為教育學者們參考。 / Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) has dominated the field of language teaching for decades. Previous research also indicated that the effectiveness of CLT has a lot to do with the culture of learning in the country where CLT is implemented. The aim of the present study is to explore whether foreign-trained English teachers, who are presumably under more influence of CLT than locally-trained teachers, have manifested their beliefs and practices more explicitly in the classroom instruction. This study adopted a qualitative research method. The participants are 3 US/UK-trained English teachers and 3 locally-trained English teachers, who teach in a senior high school in northern Taiwan. In this study, the instruments for collecting data included questionnaire, classroom observations and follow-up interviews. The data were analyzed to answer the following research questions: (1) US/UK-trained English teachers’ beliefs and practices in CLT, (2) locally-trained English teachers’ beliefs and practices in CLT, (3) the similarities in teachers’ beliefs and teaching practices between US/UK-trained and locally-trained English teachers and (4) the differences in teachers’ beliefs and teaching practices between US/UK-trained and locally-trained English teachers. The major findings are all participants, including both foreign-trained and locally-trained teachers, claimed to hold positive attitude toward CLT. However, CLT was not used frequently in class. It was an eclecticism that was mostly adopted, instead. As for the major constraints from applying CLT, all participants agreed the contextual factors, such as pressure of exams, limited teaching hours, class size, mattered a lot. In addition, the overseas educational experience made no difference to teachers’ beliefs. Finally, pedagogical implications and suggestions are presented at the end of the paper.

Literature review covered the approaches of ESL/EFL writing instruction and teachers’ beliefs and practices. The participants of this study were senior high school English teachers in Taipei city. Two data collection instruments were adopted, the quantitative questionnaire and the qualitative interview. In total, 171 questionnaires were gathered and analyzed by means of descriptive statistics and one-way ANOVA. In addition, six interviews were conducted, whose results were utilized to further support and explain the questionnaire results. There were three research focuses. The first one was on teachers’ beliefs and practices in the goals of writing instruction, the roles they played, and the content as well as the teaching procedures of writing instruction. The second one was on the consistency between teachers’ beliefs and practices and possible reasons for the inconsistency. The third one was on influential factors on teachers’ beliefs and practices. Based on the results of this study, major findings are summarized. First, for the teachers in this study, entrance exams were approaching, so the test-oriented trend seemed to be inevitable. However, teachers believed that to familiarize students with English writing structure and to enable them to express in written English could also be possible goals, and they did teach accordingly. Second, the goals, roles teachers played, content, and teaching procedures reflected a mixture of product-oriented and process-oriented approaches. Third, the difficulties originating from curriculum, students, teaching preparation, and composition evaluation might hinder teachers’ practices of their beliefs. Finally, teachers’ background experiences were found to play a part in influencing teachers’ beliefs and practices. It is hoped that this study can contribute to more understanding of senior high school English teachers’ beliefs and practices in writing instruction. With the results of this study in mind, the researcher further made suggestions toward senior high school English teachers, teacher education institutes, the Ministry of Education, and writing instruction material designers. This might help refine senior high school English writing instruction.

本研究旨在探討在台灣升學導向高中任教之外籍教師在面對不同議題時之信念是否受到大學聯考的影響，以及其教學信念及實踐是否一致。 為了能夠深入了解外籍教師的教學信念，本研究採用質性研究法來進行資料採集及分析，所使用的資料採集工具為訪談、課室觀察及文件分析。除了訪談一名擁有三年私立升學導向高中教學經驗的女性教師，研究者更進一步訪談該校外語中心主任以期能了解該校對其外籍老師的要求及期待。研究結果呈現此外籍教師對於學習、教學、英語、大學入學考試、台灣教育以及本籍及外籍教師間之異同的信念及看法。 在本研究最後，研究者也針對研究結果提出了建議，以期能提供給教育當局、學校以及學者作為參考。 / The purpose of this study is to explore the beliefs of a native English speaking teacher (NEST) in a college-bound senior high school in Taipei City and to see if the JUEE has influence on her teaching beliefs. Instructional practices are used to compare with the NEST’s beliefs to check the consistency between them. In order to have a complete picture of NEST’s beliefs, the researcher made use of qualitative research methods in this study and selected an experienced NEST who was currently teaching in a private senior high school in Taipei City. By adopting three data collection methods: semi-structured interviews, classroom observations and document analyses, the researcher collected the data from the NEST. Furthermore, the researcher also interviewed the director of Foreign Language Center to see if the NEST’s beliefs were congruent with the school’s expectations. The data were analyzed to present the NEST’s beliefs about learning, teaching, English, the JUEE, the educational system in Taiwan and the differences between NESTs and NNESTs. Based on the results, the implications were offered for the policy makers and the institutions as well as the recommendations for the future researchers.

本研究旨在探討兩位國中英語教師閱讀教學信念及其課堂教學，同時分析師生課堂互動如何影響教師的課堂閱讀教學。過去研究顯示出學生對於教師的信念及教學有很大的影響，但課堂上的師生互動如何影響教師教學卻需要進一步的研究。本研究採取質性個案研究，研究過程採取訪談教師及學生和課堂觀察兩位教師的教學為主要資料蒐集來源。結果顯示教師所聲稱的閱讀教學信念與其實際課堂教學確有差異之處，而學生因素包括: (1) 學生課堂參與 (2) 學生對教授內容的理解 (3) 學生英語程度差異 (4) 學生考試壓力均影響教師調整課堂教學的內容。然而教師信念與實際教學差異卻反映了教師信念因應個別教學情境而改變的本質，同時透過教師信念研究亦凸顯了教師於課堂中真正扮演的角色。文末進一步提出相關建議，以期能作為在職教師及未來研究參考。 / The purposes of the present study are to investigate two junior high school English teachers’ beliefs and practices on reading instruction and how the teacher-student interaction in class impacts teachers’ reading instruction behaviors. Previous studies have shown the impacts of student issues on the teachers’ beliefs, but how exactly these issues interact with teachers’ in-class practices demands further investigation. The case study research, that is semi-structured interviews with participating teachers and students and classroom observations, was adopted in the present study. The results reveal that there are indeed discrepancies between the teachers’ claimed pedagogical beliefs and their in-class actions, and students’ in-class participation, their comprehension of teachers’ instruction, their diverse English proficiency levels and their examination pressure all present challenges to shape teachers’ actions in class. Nevertheless, these discrepancies between teachers’ beliefs and practice in turn reveal the situated nature of teachers’ beliefs, which help teachers develop more contextualized adjustments to meet their individual teaching contexts. Moreover, the investigation of teachers’ pedagogical beliefs make the instruction roles they play explicit. Finally, it is expected that the findings of the present study offer a new perspective to understand teachers’ beliefs and practices and provide pedagogical implications for in-service teaching profession.

本研究旨在探討一位國中英語教師對於課室互動及提問策略的信念與教學實務。資料搜集與分析採質性之資料收集及分析法，以期對於該英語教師之信念及教學能有整體的瞭解。參與本研究教師及學生為台中市一所中型公立國中的一位英文教師及一個七年級班級，期間自九十八年八月至十二月初。資料蒐集方式以訪談、課室觀察及回憶式訪談的逐字稿為主。 以課室互動的七個面向來探討及呈現此位國中英語教師對於課室互動及提問策略的信念與教學實務。研究結果指出該受訪英語教師的教學信念與實務在課室互動的重要性、語言的使用、提問的目的、提問的類型與提問策略等五個面向呈紫現一致性，唯活動類型、溝通式語言的使用面向不一致。研究結果發現該受訪英語教師教學實務深受其教學信念影響，而造成老師信念及實際上課些微差異的因素包括教科書、時間緊迫、大班級的呈現方式、學生的語言能力不足及班級裡頭學生語言能力個別差異大。研究者根據這些發現，提出了對英語教學的看法及未來研究方向的建議，以期對於課室互動及提問策略有整體的瞭解。 / The study attempts to better understand what beliefs a junior high school English teacher had with regard to classroom interaction and questioning, and how these beliefs were reflected in her actual practices. To achieve the purpose, qualitative methods were adopted to capture a holistic understanding of the teacher’s beliefs and practices. The participants included one junior high school English teacher and one seventh grade class in a medium-sized school in Taichung city. Data were collected from August of 2008 to December of 2008. Data from semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, stimulated recall interview, and field notes were analyzed to see the teacher’s beliefs and teaching practices about classroom interaction and questioning. Seven elements derived from classroom interaction and questioning were used to display the teacher’s beliefs and practices. The results of this study revealed the consistency of the participating teacher’s beliefs and practices in five areas: the significance of classroom interaction, choice of language, the purpose of questioning, teachers’ questioning types and teachers’ questioning strategies. The inconsistency between the teacher’s beliefs and practices was found on the elements of activity types and communicative language use. The results of the consistency between the teacher’s beliefs and practices showed that the teacher’s beliefs greatly influenced the way how she carried out instructional classroom practices. The results of inconsistency, on the other hand, suggesting a mismatch between the teacher’s beliefs and practices, were associated with the following factors, i.e., textbooks, time constraints, large class, students’ limited and diverse proficiency in English. Based on the findings, pedagogical implications and suggestions for future research were recommended. It is hoped to provide insights into the dynamics of classroom interaction and questioning.

讓孩子在正式學制外學習在台灣家長始終蔚為風潮。在台灣，雖然小學三年級才開始正式學習英文，許多孩子早在這個年紀之前就開始學習，或在這年紀之後，也會利用課後時間在非正式機構學習。本研究旨在了解台灣的兩位非正式教育機構英文教師的教師信念的形成。 本研究採用質性研究的個案研究方法，研究對象為二位擁有豐富非正式教育機構教學經驗的英文老師，其學生年齡介於2至16歲。資料透過與每一位研究對象的五次半結構式的深度訪談。收集到的研究資料包含研究對象的：(1)外語學習經驗，(2)外語學習者信念，(3)英文教學經驗，(4)教師訓練及教育，(5)英文教師信念。 研究結果顯示兩位教師的外語學習者信念、教師訓練、和教學經驗都會促成他們的教師信念的形成。然而，他們會做出與自己的身為外語學習者的信念不一致的教學決策。這樣的不一致性是因為他們在教學環境中所感受到的難題還有存在於他們學習者信念和英文教師信念當中的矛盾所產生的。在非正式教育機構裡，英文老師們所感受到會影響教學決策的難題是關於：(1)學生的學習環境，(2)課程規劃，(3)機構政策，(4)學生狀況，和(5)家長的期待。 最後，依據本研究結果，進一步提供相關的建議，作為教育立法者、非正式教育機構、以及學生家長們的參考。 / Having children learning outside the formal educational system for academic purposes has been a trend among Taiwanese parents. In Taiwan, although formal English instruction is provided from the third grade in formal schools, many children start to learn English before the age and learn English outside the school time at and after the age at informal education institutes. The purpose of the study is to investigate the role of the formation of beliefs as teachers of two English teachers outside the formal educational system in Taiwan. This study adopted a qualitative case study method. The participants were two English teachers with rich experience of teaching students aged from 2 to 16 at various informal educational institutes. Data were collected through five semi-structure in-depth interviews with each of the participants. The collected information included each of the participant’s: (1) FL learning experiences, (2) beliefs as a FL learner, (3) English teaching experience, (4) teacher training, and (5) beliefs as an English teacher. The findings suggest that the two teachers’ beliefs as FL learners, teacher training, and teaching experience all contributed to the formation of their beliefs as English teachers. However, the teachers would make teaching decisions inconsistent with their beliefs as FL learners. The underlying reasons behind the inconsistencies were their perceived problems in teaching contexts and the contradiction between their beliefs as FL learners and as English teachers. In the informal educational institutes, the English teachers’ perceived problems which constrained the realization of their beliefs as FL learners were about: (1) students’ learning context, (2) curriculum, (3) school policy, (4) students’ conditions, and (5) parents’ expectation. Finally, these pedagogical implications and suggestions are served as a reference for educational policy makers, informal educational institutes, and parents.

文法教學與錯誤訂正一直是課堂上的重要元素，因此了解老師與學生對於文法教學與錯誤訂正的信念有助於教學。本研究旨在探討台灣國民中學英語老師與學生對於文法教學與錯誤訂正的信念差異，並了解不同背景變項對於老師與學生信念的影響。研究工具採自編問卷，針對大台北地區141位國民中學英語老師與214位國民中學學生進行抽樣及問卷施測。資料分析採用SPSS 18.0版本，並將所得的資料以次數分配、百分比、平均數、獨立樣本t檢定及單因子變異數分析進行資料分析。本研究的主要結論如下： 一、老師與學生都相信文法教學與錯誤訂正很重要，但是溝通能力更重要。 二、老師與學生都表示最喜歡團體口語練習，其次是團體書寫練習、個人書寫練習，最後才是個人口語練習。 三、學生比老師更重視文法教學和錯誤訂正，而老師比學生更重視文法練習。 四、學生比老師更肯定同儕訂正，並相信錯誤訂正對當事人與同儕都有益。 五、學生認為口語錯誤和書寫錯誤都需要即時訂正，而老師認為只有書寫錯誤一定要訂正，但口語錯誤只要不影響溝通便不需訂正。 六、老師的性別、年資、學歷與主修科系會影響其文法教學與錯誤訂正的信念。 七、學生的性別、年級、生活經驗與學習經歷會影響其文法教學與錯誤訂正的信念。 根據上述研究結論，本研究針對國民中學英語教師、教育行政主管機關及後續研究提出具體建議。 關鍵字：教師信念、學生信念、文法教學、錯誤訂正 / Grammar instruction and error correction have always been important elements in class. Understanding students’ and teachers’ beliefs in grammar instruction and error correction is helpful to teaching. The purpose of the study is to investigate (1) similarities and differences between Taiwanese junior high school students’ and teachers’ beliefs in grammar instruction and error correction, (2) background factors that may cause differences in teachers’ beliefs in grammar instruction and error correction, and (3) background factors that may cause differences in students’ beliefs in grammar instruction and error correction. Self-designed questionnaires were distributed to 141 English teachers and 214 students in junior high schools in Great Taipei Area. Number distribution, percentage, average, independent-samples t-test, and one-way ANOVA were adopted to analyze the data collected by the questionnaires. A summary of the results is as follows: 1. Both students and teachers believed that while grammar instruction and error correction are essential, communication is more important. 2. Both students and teachers reported their preference for grammar practicing in the same sequential order of group oral practices, group writing practices, individual writing practices, and individual oral practices. 3. Students valued grammar instruction and error correction more than teachers, while teachers valued grammar practices more than students. 4. Students valued peer correction more than teachers and believed error correction is beneficial to those who make errors and their classmates. 5. Students believed both spoken and written errors need immediate correction. Teachers believed that correcting written errors is necessary, but that there is no need to correct the spoken errors as long as they do not obstruct communication. 6. Teachers’ genders, seniorities, degrees of formal schooling, and their majors were influential to their beliefs in grammar instruction and error correction. 7. Students’ genders, grades, personal experiences, and learning experiences were influential to their beliefs in grammar instruction and error correction. Based on the findings, suggestions are provided for junior high school English teachers, educational institutions and researchers of related topics. Keywords: teachers’ beliefs, students’ beliefs, grammar instruction, error correction

回溯過去的研究,教師信念對於其教學行為影響非常深遠，但是對於字彙學習策略融入教學這個議題，相關的研究仍然不多。本研究旨在探討高職英文教師對於字彙學習策略融入教學的信念還有實際的教學情形。文獻探討涵蓋字彙教學的發展、字彙學習策略的理論以及教師信念與實踐。 本研究所蒐集到的有效問卷為二百零一份，研究的對象為台灣的高職英文教師。研究方式採用量化的教師問卷佐以質性的教師訪談。共有八位教師參與本研究的訪談。訪談的內容經過整理分析，用來解釋或補充問卷統計的結果。分析問卷時，採用的統計方法有描述性統計、相關係數、單因子變異數分析。本研究的主題如下：(一) 教師信念及教學情形：分別以認知策略、社會策略、後設認知以及學習媒介等策略來探討、(二)教師信念與其實踐情形是否符合，與造成兩者之間不相符的可能原因以及(三)探討影響教師信念與實踐的各種因素。 本研究的主要發現是： 1. 教師對於字彙學習策略融入教學抱持相當正面的態度，而實踐程度是中低等以上。 2. 由於統計顯示教師信念和實踐是正相關，教師實踐和他們的信念大致符合，不過教師所面臨的一些問題如教學時數限制、學生動機、教科書的設計、資源不足等會使他們無法完全遵照其信念於教學。 3. 一些因素如教學年資、教師學歷、學生程度、英語教學時間長短、教師是否參加字彙相關研習，以及是否接觸學習策略相關的研究報告等確實會影響教師的教學信念與實踐。 本研究有助於了解高職英文教師對於字彙學習策略融入教學的信念以及他們實踐的情形，希望能夠提升老師對於策略教學的覺知。研究者對於英文教師、師資培育機構、教育部還有教師書出版社提出建議改善之道，期望能進一步提升高職的英語教學。 / Although research has shown that teacher beliefs play a decisive role in teachers’ instructional judgments and decisions, their beliefs and practices in integrating vocabulary learning strategies have not gained enough attention in the recent English educational forum. This study aimed to explore what attitudes vocational high school English teachers held toward the instruction of vocabulary learning strategies and their practices of the beliefs. Literature review ranged from vocabulary instruction, vocabulary learning strategies to teachers’ beliefs and practices. The participants of this study were vocational high school teachers in Taiwan. The data collection instruments were questionnaire and interview. The former provided mainly quantitative data and the latter qualitative data. A total of 201 valid questionnaires were analyzed and computed by means of descriptive statistics, correlation, t-test and one-way ANOVA. Eight teachers were contacted for the follow-up interviews. Their interview results were utilized to further support and explain the questionnaire data. There were three issues investigated in this study. The first one was teachers’ beliefs and practices in integrating vocabulary learning strategies into their instruction. Teachers’ beliefs and practices of cognitive strategies, social strategies, multiple sources, and metacognitive strategies were discussed. The second was the consistency and inconsistency between teachers’ beliefs and their practices and the possible problems that might cause the inconsistency. The third one was influential factors that affected teachers’ beliefs and practices. Based on the results of the study, major findings were summarized. First, teachers approved highly of the integration of vocabulary learning strategies and the frequency of their practices ranged from low to high. Second, based on the significant correlation of teachers’ beliefs and practices, the relationship was generally consistent. However, teachers were not able to teach what they believed completely. Some of the strategies revealed larger gap due to the problems from the curriculum, students’ motivation, textbook design and teachers’ preparation. Third, variables such as teachers’ teaching experience, educational background, students’ BCT test score, instructional time, teachers’ attendance of workshops and their exposure to related research were found to be significant in affecting teachers’ beliefs and practices. It is hoped that the study can contribute to more understanding of vocational high school teachers’ beliefs and practices in vocabulary learning strategies. Teachers may inspect their teaching process and raise the awareness of integrating vocabulary learning strategies into their teaching. Based on the findings of the study, the researcher further made suggestions to English teachers, teacher education institutes, the Ministry of Education and the textbook publishers. Results of this study might help enhance English teaching in vocational high schools.
