大学生词汇学习策略研究
词汇是一种工具,用于澄清思想,清晰和令人满意地表达思想。因此,本研究旨在探讨英语学生的词汇学习策略。数据收集采用问卷调查和访谈法。本研究通过检验O 'Malley和Chamot的策略(2004),采用了描述性的方法。结果表明,学习者在词汇学习中常用的策略有:读小故事、大声朗读、跟着老师朗读、使用英语社交媒体、制作记忆词汇表、跳过可能不需要学习的新单词、看电影、听歌曲、将新单词应用到句子中、与课堂内外的朋友交谈、反复写单词、询问比他们理解得更多的讲师或同学,并要求讲师翻译单词的意思。同时,通过写重复的单词、查字典发现生词的意思、背生词、对着镜子大声说单词、使用英语社交媒体等策略来提高他们的英语词汇量。
