Children’s Literature and English Teaching – Swedish Teachers’ Methods and AttitudesVanja, Jennessen January 2015 (has links)
This study investigates how primary school teachers of grades F-3 pupils in a number of sample schools in Sweden use children’s literature and other methods to enhance their teaching of English. The study explores the attitudes of these teachers’ to using English children’s literature as a teaching tool to promote language development in their pupils, focusing on vocabulary. An empirical questionnaire study was carried out including a total of twenty-three respondents from seven schools in a Stockholm suburb. The respondents are all working teachers with experience of teaching English to young learners, particularly in grades F-3. This study contributes with new knowledge about the often-recommended use of children’s literature as a method for teaching English to young learners, connecting international research with empirical data from the Swedish context. While the results suggest that the majority of the respondents are positive to using children’s literature in their teaching and regularly do so, many of them feel that it is somewhat difficult to find relevant materials to plan, implement and evaluate lessons within the allocated time-frame. Based on these results, further research about how to create more effective ways of using children’s literature as a method for English vocabulary teaching in Swedish schools is recommended.

Vokabulär – En intervjustudie om vokabulärinlärning i engelska årskurs 4-6Bohman, Sandra January 2020 (has links)
I denna kvalitativa intervjustudie har fyra lärare beskrivit sina upplevelser av att arbeta med vokabulär i engelska. Frågorna har handlat om hur lärare beskriver sin undervisning kring vokabulär i engelska årskurserna 4–6, samt vilka utmaningar som kan uppstå. De semi-strukturerade intervjuerna har sedan transkriberats och analyserats utifrån den kognitiva teorin, med hjälp av en tematisk analys. Resultatet visar att undervisningen vanligtvis är läromedelscentrerad, där vokabulärinlärningen kan frodas eller utmanas beroende på material och val av arbetssätt. Lärarna använde sig även av glosförhör som metod, även om några av lärarna själva ifrågasatt metoden på grund av hur den sedan vanligtvis inte följs upp i undervisningen

Essential 500 Wordlist for the Foundations Program at the Brigham Young University's English Language CenterJung, Inho 15 April 2010 (has links) (PDF)
In order to help ESL students in the Foundations Program at BYU's ELC, I have developed a 500-word list of essential English vocabulary. This list attempts to reach one of the goals of the institute's curriculum, which is to develop systematic, integrated vocabulary instruction. Published literature reveals that studying with a list in conjunction with explicit instruction can enhance L2 vocabulary learning when the instruction is systematically integrated with other skills and activities. The literature also shows the importance of learning the most frequent and essential words first, which can be found in the General Service List and the Academic Word List according to learners' needs. In order to develop an essential vocabulary list of 500 words for the Foundations Program at the ELC, I used several strategies. First, to investigate which words in their textbooks the students use, I analyzed the graded readers and listening books required in the curriculum of the Foundations Program. Second, after investigating the texts of the textbooks, the second step was to conduct a survey in order to investigate learners' lexical knowledge. To develop a reliable survey, reliable research strategies were conducted. The first survey was conducted at the end of Fall Semester 2009. Following the first survey, the second survey was conducted at the beginning of Winter Semester 2010. The administration of the two surveys revealed the students' self-reported knowledge about specific vocabulary items in the lists. Following the administration and analysis of the two surveys, I generated the final 500-word list for the students in the Foundations Program at BYU's ELC. The words were based on the students' needs and knowledge, and were generated based on the essential words from the GSL and the AWL in order to meet the goals of the curriculum of the Foundations Program.

台灣國中學生英語字彙學習策略偏好個案研究 / A case study on english learner’s preferences lies in vocabulary learning strategies used by some junior high school students in Taiwan簡鈺珊, Chien, Yu Shan Unknown Date (has links)
本研究基於字彙學習以及字彙學習策略的重要性,探討台灣國中學生使用字彙學習策略的情形。且加入其在字彙學習程度高低的因素,來探討台灣國中學生使用策略之情形。本研究問題有二:第一,台灣國中學生最常使用的字彙學習策略有哪些?最不常使用的字彙學習策略有哪些?第二,台灣國中學生字彙學習程度與字彙學習策略之間是否有關聯性?如果有,其關聯性又為何?本研究依據Oxford(1990)的語言學習策略分類標準,測驗某台北市立國中二年級的學生使用字彙學習策略的情形,同時也比較字彙學習程度不同的學生使用這些策略的頻率高低。結果顯示如下:(1)台灣國中學生最常使用的字彙學習策略為認知策略,最少使用的字彙學習策略為情意策略。(2)程度高的學生使用字彙學習策略的頻率高於程度低的學生。此研究結果可為英語教師和學習者在字彙教與學方面提供一些參考,讓英語字彙的教學變得更加有效率。 / The study investigates the usage of English vocabulary learning strategies by some junior high school students in Taiwan. The factor of the levels of the students is included. There are two research questions: (1) what are the most commonly used English vocabulary learning strategies among junior high school students in Taiwan? (2) whether the levels of the students are related to the types of vocabulary learning strategies they use? If the answer is “yes”, what relationship it is? The study is based on the language learning strategies in Oxford(1990). The subjects are some second graders in a junior high school in Taipei. In the study, the researcher compares the usage of English vocabulary learning strategies among students at different vocabulary levels. The result shows that the most commonly used vocabulary strategy among the students is cognitive strategy, and the least commonly used one is affective strategy. Furthermore, the result also shows that higher level students use vocabulary learning strategies more often than lower level students. The researcher hopes that this study could give the English learners some suggestions to make vocabulary learning more effective.

An analysis of the translation of vocabulary lists in textbooks for teaching Chinese as a foreign language (TCFL)Hao, Yifei January 2017 (has links)
Recent research in the Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language (TCFL) field has focused on the pedagogical perspectives underlying TCFL textbooks and their compilation. With the increasing interaction between China and other countries in global contexts such as culture, economics and commerce, there is a great need to expand research regarding all areas and issues within TCFL, especially in the important area of vocabulary and its translation in TCFL textbooks (Tsung and Cruickshank, 2011). This research investigates a range of translation problems related to the accuracy of the vocabulary lists featured in 12 selected representative TCFL textbooks for teaching Chinese as a foreign language. This thesis presents findings from three triangulation cases (questionnaire survey, corpus research, and assessment test) involving two different groups of participants (e.g. Chinese teachers who completed the questionnaire survey and Chinese undergraduates majoring in English who underwent the assessment test). The contribution of this study is as follows: 1) I conduct a series of empirical evidence based on the viewpoints of practitioners regarding the identified translation problems to fill the gap that there are more descriptive and pedagogical works in the vocabulary translation of TCFL textbooks; 2) I adopt functional equivalence theory of translation and linguistics–based approaches (semantic, pragmatic and grammatical perspectives) to establish a theoretical framework which provides a flexible way of analysing translation and enables the original meanings of Chinese words to be analysed through various perspectives, especially for Chinese and English vocabulary analysis and translation; 3) I draw on translation quality evaluation theory to generate a translation quality evaluation framework which can serve as a reference point for other translation evaluation work regarding vocabulary conducted during other relevant studies; 4) I demonstrate that the majority of translation problems gathered from the selected TCFL textbooks were found at the preliminary level and in the content word class which have much practical relevance and research value for the pedagogical purpose of vocabulary teaching and translation; and 5) I build up a specific parallel corpus with passages and vocabulary lists of the selected TCFL textbooks.

Towards teaching English vocabulary to Vietnamese tertiary studentsHoang, Tat Truong, n/a January 1985 (has links)
The English language is now widely used in Vietnam.
Consequently, the teaching and learning of English
has become more significant , but, on the other
hand, teaching methodologies, in Vietnam , still
reflect those used in the past to teach other
foreign languages. Vietnamese English teachers also
experience difficulty coping with the many new
problems which they now face. One of these
difficulties is the teaching of English vocabulary.
In order to develop an understanding of how best
English vocabulary might be taught in the
Vietnamese setting , this study identifies a
particular group of students: Vietnamese tertiary
students attending the Hanoi Foreign Languages
Teachers' College, and then explores ways how
teachers might introduce the teaching of English
vocabulary, both to these students, and to the
subjects the students will finally teach
themselves.
In order to prepare for an outline of how to carry
out this teaching role, the study investigates the
various problems associated with defining : the
word; the types of meaning conveyed by the word;
the relationship of phonology, syntax and semantics
to the word, and other related matters . The study
also looks at the problems which Vietnamese
students have with learning English vocabulary. In
this context a comparison is made of English and
Vietnamese lexical and related systems.
Subsequently, the study considers the different
types of foreign language methods which have and
are being used, with particular reference to how
they were used to teach vocabulary.
Finally, the study considers questions of the need
to select appropriate vocabulary for the targetted
students and details how teachers might effectively
teach vocabulary.
