Abstract

Abstract Research has indicated that L2 learners frequently encounter challenges when using automatic speech recognition (ASR) in ELT. Therefore, this study explored how critical inquiries into the current ASR technology that is oriented towards native speech might elicit Global Englishes (GE) awareness among Korean pre-service teachers. Qualitative data gathered from interviews with twenty-three Korean students in a teacher education programme and their reflective journals revealed their GE awareness regarding ASR issues in ELT. Furthermore, the findings suggested that their GE awareness was influenced by their previous experiences with taking GE-informed courses and English as a lingua franca communication. Finally, these participants would be willing to incorporate GE perspectives into their future ASR-based ELT classes. It is suggested that the inclusion of GE perspectives into ELT courses be considered to encourage L2 students not to entirely conform to NS norms in ELT.
从全球英语的角度探讨英语教学中的语音自动识别
研究表明,二语学习者在英语教学中使用自动语音识别(ASR)时经常遇到挑战。因此,本研究探讨了对当前以母语为导向的ASR技术的批判性调查如何引起韩国职前教师的全球英语(GE)意识。从对23名韩国教师教育项目学生的访谈和他们的反思日志中收集的定性数据显示,他们对英语教学中ASR问题的通用电气意识。此外,研究结果表明,他们的通用电气意识受到他们之前参加通用电气相关课程和英语作为通用语言交流经历的影响。最后,这些参与者将愿意将GE的观点纳入他们未来基于asr的ELT课程中。我们建议在英语课程中加入通用电气的观点,以鼓励二语学生在英语教学中不完全遵循通用电气的规范。
