L2 Chinese grammar pedagogy: the case of the ba-construction

Kou, Yupeng 01 August 2016 (has links)
The Chinese ba-construction is a frequently used, language-specific construction that is difficult for most learners who study Chinese as a second language. The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a Chinese second language pedagogical model on the ba-construction among college-level English-speaking learners of Chinese. For the ba-construction, namely “Subject + ba + ba-NP + ba-VP (Verb + Complement),” the investigator proposed an L2 instructional model that emphasizes both syntactic and semantic relationships between the ba-NP and the ba-VP. Based on this model and on cognitive theories of second language acquisition, the investigator designed a series of grammar instruction sessions that combined meaningful input, communicative tasks and form-focused instruction on four frequently used types of the ba-construction and one less frequently used type. The instruction sessions were administered weekly to the participants for a total of four weeks. Fourteen participants at two proficiency levels, namely novice and intermediate, were recruited for the study. Quantitative data were obtained from a pre-test, a post-test and a delayed post-test in the form of four measurement tasks: Grammaticality Judgement, Cloze, Translation and Contextualized Sentence Production with Keywords. Using a split-plot statistical model (with the time factor crossed and the proficiency level factor non-assignable), non-parametric alternative tests and a semi-structured interview, the investigator addressed the following three research questions: 1) Is the pedagogical model effectively strong in explaining the ba-construction and facilitating L2 learners’ comprehension and production? 2) Are the instruction sessions beneficial to L2 learners’ understanding of different form–meaning mappings of the ba-construction? 3) Do the effects of the pedagogical model and the instruction vary for L2 learners at different proficiency levels? Data analyses revealed a significant main time effect on participants’ overall performance and performance on each measurement task; the main group effect was not significant except for the Cloze task; no interaction effects were found in either the comprehension or production tasks. While participants acquired the ba-constructions in comprehension significantly better than in production, different trends in acquisition patterns were also found between their performances in these two language skills. After receiving instruction, participants performed significantly better in comprehension tasks and could maintain that level of performance in the delayed post-test; their performance on production tasks became better right after the instruction sessions, but deteriorated significantly afterwards. The participants’ improvement on ba-constructions with directional complements (Type 3) and resultative complements (Type 4), as well as the less commonly used type, was significant in general; in comprehension tasks, participants’ improvement on Type 5 was significantly higher than that for the Type 1 ba-constructions expressing relocation/displacement. Data collected from the semi-structured interviews indicated participants’ favorable evaluation and need for integrated L2 instruction that included elements of pedagogical grammar, especially on language-specific constructions. These results point to the importance of L2 grammar instruction in drawing L2 learners’ attention to form and to the association between form and meaning; instruction plays an indispensable role in communicative L2 classes and serves as a necessary reinforcement to the frequent exposure to meaningful L2 input. For Chinese ba-constructions, instruction that focuses on declarative knowledge is beneficial across proficiency levels.

Ensino de português: a caixa-preta da gramática pedagógica / Portuguese teaching: the black box of the pedagogical grammar

Dias, Glauci Helena Móra 25 June 2009 (has links)
À luz da concepção bakhtiniana de linguagem e do pressuposto de que ensinar a língua não é ensinar gramática normativa, o trabalho tem por objetivo analisar uma gramática considerada como modelo da indústria cultural, a Gramática da Língua Portuguesa, de Pasquale e Ulisses. Este exame parte de quatro eixos de investigação, a saber: concepções teóricas, abordagem didático-metodológica, enfoque relacional e dimensão mercadológica. Levando em conta a relevância dos estudos sobre os livros didáticos no ensino de língua materna, a pesquisa objetiva contribuir para os debates educacionais e para a revisão das concepções de ensino de língua portuguesa, com fundamentação na lingüística moderna e nos postulados de Giroux, Bakhtin, Bourdieu, Freire, Eco e Bonazzi, Nozella e Olson. A pesquisa visa também compreender a organização da mencionada gramática pedagógica, tanto no que diz respeito à proposta, ao objeto e ao referencial de ensino de português, bem como a tendências e significados assumidos por seus autores. Para tanto, examinam-se as concepções de linguagem e suas implicações, as exigências mercadológicas da indústria cultural e os atuais dilemas da formação do professor no Brasil. Desta forma, não se trata apenas de apontar as adequações e inadequações da referida gramática à luz da lingüística moderna, mas também de avaliar a coerência interna da obra pelo confronto entre seus princípios e as atividades práticas propostas. Igualmente, permeia esta dissertação o questionamento sobre os fatores que fazem a gramática pedagógica de Pasquale e Ulisses encontrar eco na escola, e como os autores organizam seu trabalho para contemplar estas demandas. As conclusões do estudo apontam para a aceitação desta obra, na escola e na sociedade, pautando-se significativamente nos fatores interferentes na produção do material didático, que nascem na indústria cultural e ganham força no mercado editorial. Evidencia-se também como o ensino da língua pode fortalecer concepções equivocadas, acirrando os mecanismos de discriminação lingüística. / In accordance to Backhtins conception of language, as well as the assumption that teaching language is not teaching normative grammar, the purpose of this study is to analyze a textbook considered as a model in cultural industry, Gramática da Língua Portuguesa, by Pasquale and Ulysses. We scrutinize that work taking on account four areas of research, namely: theoretical concepts, methodological-didactic approach, relational focus and marketing scale. Considering the relevance of the studies about mother tongue teaching textbooks, this research aims to contribute both to educational discussions as well as to the reexamination of Portuguese language teaching conceptions, based on modern linguistics and on the principles by Giroux, Backhtin, Bourdieu, Freire, Echo and Bonazzi, Nozella and Olson. Grounded on such a benchmark, the purpose of this research is also to understand that textbook organization as a school grammar, both with regard to the proposal, object and reference for Portuguese teaching, as well as the trends and meanings assumed by its authors. With that in mind, language conceptions and their implications, the cultural industry marketing requirements, and the current teacher training dilemmas in Brazil were investigated. Thus, it is not just bringing forward the adequacy and inadequacy of the above mentioned textbook according to modern linguistics, but also assessing the internal consistency of the work by the confrontation between its principles and the practical activities proposed. Our research is likewise prevailed by the questioning about the reasons which make Pasquale and Ulysses textbook find echo in the school environment and how the authors organize their work to cover these demands. Our study\'s findings indicate that textbook is well accepted both in school and society, what guides us up to the significantly interfering factors in the production of educational materials, which arise in the cultural industry and gain strength in the publishing market. It also offers evidence to how language teaching can strengthen mistaken conceptions, stirring up linguistic discrimination mechanisms.

中英文處所詞倒置之比較 / Comparison of locative inversion in Mandarin and English

黃郁玲 Unknown Date (has links)
本篇論文主要是採用詞彙功能語法以及篇章功能語法來檢視處所詞倒置的結構在中英文裡的表現,分別從四個層次來檢視,包括了語意結構、詞組結構、句法功能結構、以及信息結構。首先,能進行處所詞倒置的動詞必須要是帶有一個客體及一個方位詞的論元結構,或是帶有一個由主事者和客體所組成的複合論元以及一個方位詞的論元結構。其次,在詞組結構中,英文的前置處所詞是屬於介系詞,而中文裡的前置處所詞是屬於名詞。再者,前置的處所詞在中文裡是位於主詞的位置,但在英文裡是句法功能結構上的主詞。最後,在句子的信息結構上,考量到信息編排的方式,後置的名詞傾向是無定的名詞而非代名詞,而且傾向是比前置的處所詞還要長的詞組。就篇章信息而言,處所詞倒置必須考慮到對前的連結及對後的連結。另外在文體修飾上為了對仗的效果也會促使處所詞倒置的產生。 透過對比分析,本篇論文有系統地比較英文和中文在處所詞結構的表現,主要目的在於為學習英文的中文講者提供教學上的啟發。而將理論語法運用在教學語法上,也顯示出這兩者語法之間的關連性以及合作性。一方面理論語法可以提供教學語法一個強而有力的理論後盾;另一方面,教學語法也提供了理論語法研究的動機。總的來說,將理論語法運用在教學方面,不僅對語言教學有助益,對語言學研究的領域上也有相當的幫助。 / This paper examines locative inversion construction by adopting Lexical Functional Grammar and discourse grammar. The examination concerns both English and Mandarin, from four structure levels, a-structure, c-structure, f-structure, and information structure. First, a locative inversion verb takes an a-structure of <theme locative> or <agent-theme locative>. Second, in c-structure, the preposed locative belongs to PP in English but to NP in Mandarin. Third, whereas the preposed locative phrase is in the subject position in Mandarin, the one in English is only a functional subject in f-structure. Finally, in information structure, given information packaging, the postposed theme is inclined to be an indefinite nominal instead of a pronoun and to be a longer constituent than the preposed locative phrase; in contextual information, a linking device, used either anaphorically or cataphorically, is necessary for locative inversion, and stylistic parallelism further facilitates the occurrence of locative inversion. With the systematic comparison of English and Mandarin, this paper aims to provide pedagogical suggestions in regard to English learning for Mandarin speakers, by virtue of the use of Contrastive Analysis. The application of theoretical grammar to the language teaching field indicates the correlation and cooperation between theoretical grammar and pedagogical grammar. On the one hand, the theoretical grammar provides a firm and reliable theoretical support for language teaching; on the other hand, the pedagogical grammar is the motivation to the research of theoretical grammar. All in all, the application of theoretical grammar to language teaching contributes not only to the language teaching filed but also to the linguistic research.
