1 The Research of Views on Video Instruction in Learning English 組員 : 湯宜庭 郭姿君 羅湘婷 指導老師 : 王貴梅老師
2 Abstract Nowadays, English has become a global language. However, divergent views on ways of learning English are from different experts. Learners have their own ways of learning English due to the conflict between cultural and learning environments. As time goes by, in order to enhance students learning interests, more and more innovative teaching methods are proposed, such as operating through video instruction, singing English songs, situational dialogue and participation in the English camps. Students have to constantly increase their English ability under competitive pressure; thus, going to cram schools to learn English has become a trend in Taiwan. Many parents send their children to cram schools, but traditional teaching approaches that are so boring not only reduces students interests in learning English, but also decrease the outcome of learning. Finally, students are not willing to learn English. Comparatively, video instruction which is one of lively teaching methods brings stimulus of vision and audition to learners. Learners can enjoy watching videos and learn English imperceptibly. Thus, the researchers explored teachers and students opinion about video instruction in this research. The researchers hope that teachers can create an easy learning environment and students can enjoy learning by adopting video instruction. Keywords: Video Instruction, Interests in Learning English 1
3 摘要現今社會中, 英文已成為國際通用之語言, 學習英文的方法在民間及學者間眾說紛紜 然而礙於文化與學習環境間之衝突, 大眾學習英文的方式, 更是無奇不有, 無所不學 隨著時代改變, 為了引起學生興趣, 越來越多新穎的教學方式出現, 例如影片教學 唱歌學英語 情境式英語對話以及參加英文學習營 因為競爭的壓力, 導致許多莘莘學子必須時時刻刻增加自己的英文能力 ; 前往補習班補習英文儼然成為一種趨勢 許多家長一窩蜂地把小孩送去補習, 然而傳統的教學方式太過於枯燥乏味, 導致學生興趣缺缺 對於許多非自願性學習之學生, 不僅降低其對學習英文的慾望, 更加削弱學習的成效 利用影片教學學習英語相較下較易吸引學生注意, 因為有視覺上的吸引, 加上聽覺的感官刺激, 以及劇情上的起伏變化, 學生會因為劇情發展而被吸引, 進而在享受影片的同時, 順其自然的吸收並增進其英文能力 因此, 研究者藉此研究探討教師與學生對影片學習英文的看法 希望教師能藉由影片教學營造輕鬆的學習氣氛, 進而使學生享受學習 關鍵字 : 影片教學 英語學習興趣 2

5 I. Introduction A. Background of the Study Nowadays English has become an international language because Europe and America are powerful nations in the world. Ways of learning English are various in Taiwan, and experts hold different views on ways of learning English as well. Therefore, learners have their own ways of learning English due to the conflict between cultures and learning environments. According to Chang (2008), if non-native English speakers would like to speak English fluently, they should use English as much as native English speakers. Chuang (2004) considered that the absorption of knowledge from vision is seven times as high as audition. Results of some experiments showed that visual memory is 83 percent in human memory, but the audio memory is only 17 percent. According to Wu (2007), a student whose name is Zhen-Wei got 720 points of the Test of English for International Communication Test. He doesn t like to study, but he enjoys watching English films and television series. He learns different dialogues by watching English videos. B. Motivation of the Study Students in Taiwan cultivate their English ability under pressure of competition. Therefore, for parents, the current trend is to send their children to cram schools. However, some traditional teaching methods decrease learners interests in learning English (Chuang, 2004 & Wang, 2007). In recent years, so as to increase students interests, lots of innovative English teaching methods appear, such as teaching English by watching videos, singing English songs, scenario-based dialogue, and participation in English camps. 4
6 Interesting methods of teaching English increase desires to learn English. Audiences are attracted by the plots of videos with visual attractions and auditory sensory stimulation. Learners not only enjoy watching movies but also enhance their English ability. Thus, the researchers decided to explore teachers and students opinions on the video instruction and tried to understand whether learning English through watching videos is a effective way. C. Purposes of the Study This study aimed to investigate the public opinions and attitude towards the video instruction and the influence on interests in learning English when teachers use videos as teaching tools. The following are purposes of the study. (1) To explore the influence on learners through watching English videos. (2) To explore teachers and students acceptance of video instruction. (3) To explore if the video instruction conforms to the current educational trends. D. Research Questions of the Study In this study, "questionnaires" are tools to collect information. The participants of this study are teachers and vocational high school students. To explore participants opinions on learning English via video instruction, the following research questions were proposed. (1) What kinds of movies do students like most? (2) Do students learn different cultures by watching videos? (3) Do students learn English efficiently by watching videos? (4) Do teachers and students favor the use of the video instruction in class? 5
7 II. Methods Twenty teachers and 195 students were participants of this study. To understand the participants view on the video instruction in learning English, the researchers created the questionnaires as the instrument of the study. So as to get more information from questionnaires, the researchers created two different questionnaires, including teachers and students questionnaires. A.
