臺灣高中生在全國英語寫作比賽中的論述能力與寫作表現：引言部分之分析

Taiwanese Students' Discourse Skills and Writing Performance in National High School Essay Writing Competition: An Analysis of Introductions

本研究探討全國高中英文寫作比賽（NHSEWC）獲獎作品的引言如何有助於達成課程目標並促進臺灣高中生的全球化視野。透過話語分析，本研究分析了40篇獲獎引言，關注其在研究領域的建立、態度表達及研究缺口的呈現方式。此外，兩位大學教師審查了這些引言，以確保品質的一致性。研究結果顯示，獲獎引言在建立研究領域（如引用文獻）、表達態度（顯性與隱性方式）以及確立研究缺口（如探討具爭議性的議題或強調研究重要性）方面展現出多樣策略。然而，部分引言存在冗贅問題，或未能達到「特優獎」的標準。本研究指出，由於相關文獻有限，撰寫NHSEWC引言仍面臨挑戰，並據此提出教學上的改進建議。

This study examines how award-winning introductions from the National High School Essay Writing Competition (NHSEWC) contribute to achieving course objectives and promoting globalization in Taiwanese high schools. Using discourse analysis, 40 award-winning introductions were analyzed for their use of research territory, attitude, and research gaps. Additionally, two university teachers reviewed the introductions to ensure quality consistency. The findings reveal diverse strategies in establishing research territory (e.g., citations), expressing attitude (explicit and implicit approaches), and identifying research gaps (controversial topics or significance emphasis). However, some introductions exhibited redundancy or failed to meet the‘extraordinary award’standard. This study highlights challenges in crafting NHSEWC introductions due to limited literature and suggests pedagogical improvements.
