英文字彙教學與學習態度改變關聯性之研究－－以美和技術學院為例

A Study on the Relationship between Vocabulary Teaching Methods and Learning Attitudes Changes--The Case of Mei-ho Institute of Technology

本研究旨在探討英語字彙教學方法與專科（二、五專）入學新生英文字彙之學習態度改變(attitude changes)之關係；並探討新生對英文之興趣、對英文在未來就業重要性之認知及人口統計變數是否會與其學習態度之改變有關。本研究主要之結論如下：1.整體而言，受訪者在學習過程及學習習慣方面表現較佳，而在學習方法方面表現較差。2 .整體而言，受訪者在經過二個月字彙教學課程後，學習態度均有所提昇。3.日間部新生相對於夜間部新生在學習過程上態度之改變上有顯著差異。4.原本對英文沒有興趣或很沒有興趣的新生在英文字彙學習態度上相較於原本對英文有興趣或很有興趣的新生有更顯著提昇與改善。

The primary objective of this study is to conduct an empirical examination of the relationships between the freshmen’s attitude changes toward English vocabulary and teaching methods. This study investigates how ESL junior college students improve their learning attitudes toward English vocabulary through a teaching project with several vocabulary teaching methods. The major findings of this study are as follows: 1. Overall speaking, the subjects perform relatively well in learning processes and learning habits but poor in learning methods. 2. Overall speaking, freshmen’s leaning attitudes toward English vocabulary have improved after two-month instruction program. 3. Freshmen in day school have improved in learning processes more than those in night school. 4. The learning attitude of freshmen without interest in English originally is better then that of freshmen with interest in English.
