進階日語聽力學習工具及學習策略之調查

Investigation of Advanced Japanese Listening Comprehension Learning Tools and Strategies

筆者在銘傳大學擔任聽力課程多年，發現僅有極少數的同學會主動為了提昇聽力而增加聽力方面的練習時間，如聽日文廣播或NHK節目等等。同學日本語能力測驗聽解部分成績也多數不盡理想。對聽力教師而言，除了提供學生聽力練習教材外，如何讓學生在課堂以外的時間，懂得運用學習策略學習聽力，改善不良的學習行為模式，亦是非常重要的課題。本研究是以好的學習者為調查對象，將這些受訪者善用之聽力學習工具及學習策略以問卷調查及訪談方式進行調查。從本次調查結果得知，聽力優秀的同學在練習聽力時善用可提升聽力之學習策略，並會找尋自己有興趣之學習材料。尤其多運用認知策略，如「推測」、「重複練習」等重要聽力策略。學習材料也因個人喜好有所不同，本文中也整理出受訪者所提出在台灣日語學習者所能利用之材料工具，提供教學者參考。如長時間收看日本NHK電視台節目，訓練自己習慣日本人說話速度。上網下載喜歡的聲優所錄製之節目，當做聽力練習材料重複聆聽。

After teaching the Japanese listening course in Ming Chuan University for several years, the author learnt the fact that only few students would spend more time in practicing listening to reinforce their capability. For example, listen to Japanese radio or watch NHK TV programs, etc.. Most of the class students performed poorly in Listen section of the Japanese language proficiency Test.Besides providing listening practices to students during class, it is also important to educate them knowing how to apply learning strategies when practicing to improve their learning pattern by utilizing time after school. This research was designed to investigate those good learners to understand how they utilize listening practice tools and learning strategies by conducting face-to-face interview.Based on the survey result, we learnt that the interviewed students would look for interesting study material and applied the learning strategies, especially some important Cognitive Strategies including e.g. ”guess”, ”repeat practice” during leisure time to improve listening. Those found studying materials are different from one another per individual preference. A table with all recommended studying material, which can be obtained locally, is posted to be available for all Japanese language teachers as reference. For example, watching Japanese NHK TV program consistently for a long period of time to get used to Japanese speaking speed, or go to internet download the radio actor or actress audio programs you liked for repeating listening comprehension practice.
