摘要
学生在通用英语课程中的焦虑感已被广泛研究。近年来,许多高校开设通用学术英语课程(EGAP),但很少有研究关注到学习EGAP课程中学生的焦虑感。本研究基于Horwitz(1986)设计的外语学习课堂焦虑量表设计了"通用学术英语课程学习焦虑感量表",通过方差检验分析了90名不同英语水平的非英语专业研究生在学习为期一年的EGAP课程时的焦虑感。我们发现被试研究生,无论英语水平高低,在学习EGAP课程时均有较为明显的焦虑感,且两组被试在9项具体焦虑表现上存在显著差异。本文提出相关教学策略,对EGAP课程的发展有一定的积极意义。
Learning anxiety felt by students when they study English for general purposes has been widely studied. Recently, a growing number of universities have offered courses of English for general academic purposes(EGAP), but very few studies have focused on students’ anxiety over these courses taken. The present study has investigated students' anxiety about EGAP courses by a specifically-designed questionnaire based on Horwitz's "Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale". Ninety graduate students have participated in this study after studying EGAP courses for one year. One-way ANOVA analyses have revealed that overall participants felt anxious when studying EGAP courses and that participants at different English levels have reported significantly different levels of anxiety in 9 specific aspects. The paper proposes pedagogical strategies which are of positive significance to the teaching of EGAP.
