Syed Zubair Haider Athar Hussain 《美中教育评论》2014,(7):465-480

Teachers always played a significant role in the intellectual and moral development of students by using various techniques, assessments, and methods to improve student achievement in school＇s subjects. This study therefore focuses on the effect of teacher factors, such as assessment interval, communication language, the distance of residence, and the teacher＇s personal characteristics （gender, age, academic and professional qualification, designation, experience, and in-service training） on the 9th grade students＇ achievement in three subjects （English, Chemistry, and Mathematics at secondary level）. The population of the study is comprised of all ＂public sector＂ secondary schools, male and female teachers, and boy and girl students. A total number of 16 secondary schools （eight for boys and eight for girls）, 114 secondary school teachers （66 males and 48 females）, and 2,404 students （1,400 boys and 1,004 girls） were selected through purposive sampling techniques. Multiple statistical procedures, Spearman and Pearson correlation, mean, and standard deviation were employed to obtain stronger validity to the study. The results of the study identify weak and negative weak relationship between most of the teacher factors and student achievement in three subjects but the relationship between students＇ background and learning achievement in all three subjects were found positively correlated.  相似文献   

Contextualized Grammar Pedagogy： Integrating Grammar Into Writing Instruction     

Vinita Gaikwad 《美中教育评论》2014,(7):490-499

Grammar is an important aspect of English language pedagogy in China and is taught as a subject of study in Chinese primary and high schools. Despite studying grammar for several years, however, high school graduates find it difficult to express their ideas in English especially when they are asked to write essays at university. This article reports a study that investigates students＇ views regarding the study of grammar when contextualized to their writing courses. It was found that students appreciate contextualized study of grammar as opposed to isolated learning of grammar using memorization, drills, and practices. The study suggests that a shift in the aims and methods of teaching English in high schools is necessary if students＇ preferences, which are consistent with research literature in second language teaching, are to be taken into consideration.  相似文献

外语教学改革--复合型外语人才培养的挑战与对策     

周彦君 《教育前沿(综合版)》2014,(7)

英语作为一种语言技能和工具,不仅存在于语言文学之中,更多地依附于其他应用型专业,从而构成了复合型知识构架,这是高校外语专业的发展趋势和方向。目前,高校外语专业的生存发展正面临严峻挑战。外语人才培养模式单一,同质化问题严重,外语毕业生专业水平与社会发展需求脱节,外语专业从业空间正在逐渐萎缩。因此,各高校应大力推进外语专业教学改革,走内涵式发展道路,重视人文素质教育,构建高精尖外语人才培养体系,突出办学特色,因校因地制宜,培养多层次、多元化复合型外语人才。  相似文献

论音义结合之相对有理性——传统语言起源观补正     

张其昀 《南阳师范学院学报》2014,(1):34-43

语言起源于声音模拟。不仅是在西方,在我国远古时期对拟声造词即有了初步认识。古代学者许慎、戴侗,近代学者章太炎、刘师培、黄侃等人对此都有所阐释。音义结合,并非出于偶然。词之得名,是在拟声基础上约定俗成的结果,是相对有理性的。就传统语言起源观加以补正,并参酌西方学说,我们就能从理论上正确解决语言起源问题。  相似文献
