探討學習者的語言學習信念之動態本質: 兩位英語教學所碩士生的個案研究 / Focusing on the dynamic nature of learner belief: a case study on two TESOL MA students

本文旨在探討學習者的語言學習信念之動態本質。研究對象為兩位北部英語教學所的碩士生,研究方法主要包含半結構式訪談和研究對象自己寫的英語學習歷程,目的在於了解研究對象在人生各個階段的語言學習信念。資料分析方式採用「整體—內容」的分析法。研究結果顯示研究對象的學習信念會依他們和其所在情境的互動關係而改變,而這樣的改變彰顯了學習信念並非固定不變。而是動態的。此外,研究結果發現學習信念和情境、自我、以及身分相關。值得點出的是,雖然學習信念會依情境而改變,但是重點並非情境本身,而是學習者如何看待和解讀情境。除了情境因素,本研究亦探討不同自我(理想自我和應該自我)與身份(核心身份和情境身份)如何影響學習者的語言信念。在所有階段,兩位研究對象都表示努力是語言學習的關鍵,而學習者和所學語言之間的關係會決定學習者願意投入多少心力在語言學習上。最後於文末提出教學和研究上的建議。 / The study aims to explore the dynamic nature of learner belief through investigating two Taiwanese MA-TESOL students' beliefs at different stages of their lives. The participants are two TESOL MA students in a graduate school in northern Taiwan. Data collection methods mainly include written narratives and semi-structured interviews. The data collected are further analyzed using a holistic-content approach. The results of the study show that the participants' beliefs shift in interaction with the context and thus reveal that the nature of learner belief is dynamic. Moreover, the study indicates that learner belief is connected with context, self, and identity. It is noted that what really matters is not the context itself but how learners perceive and interpret the context. Then, the conceptions of ideal self vs. ought-to self and core identity vs. situated identity are introduced to shed light on their relationship with learner belief. Across all stages, while both participants claimed that effort is critical to language learning, it is how they relate themselves to the target language that determine how much effort that they are willing to make into language learning. Finally, it is expected that the study can help educators as well as researchers better understand the dynamic nature of learner belief. Pedagogical implications and suggestions for future research are provided at the end of the thesis.
