Abstract

Outcomes from a body of research on reading education stress the importance of text structure instruction and the integration of reading instruction in content learning in primary schools. We conducted an analysis of Dutch textbooks and workbooks of the seven most frequently used science teaching programs developed for grades 3-6 in order to find out to what extent these materials are appropriate for text structure instruction. The results show that the materials do offer opportunities for text structure instruction but are not suitable for a step-by-step implementation and practice of knowledge and skills related to text structure. The textbooks offer too few clear organized single-structured texts and not all text structures are sufficiently represented. Also, the programs differ strongly in text length, text segmentation and use of introductions. Illustrations and assignments hardly connect to the text structure. We finish the paper with recommendations for educational publishers.

科学教育中的教学语篇结构

一系列关于阅读教育的研究结果强调了文本结构教学的重要性以及阅读教学在小学内容学习中的整合。我们对荷兰3-6年级最常用的七个科学教学项目的教科书和练习册进行了分析，以了解这些材料在多大程度上适合文本结构教学。结果表明，这些材料确实为文本结构教学提供了机会，但不适合逐步实施和实践与文本结构相关的知识和技能。教科书提供的清晰、有组织、单一结构的文本太少，并不是所有的文本结构都得到了充分的体现。此外，两个程序在文本长度、文本分割和介绍的使用方面也有很大差异。插图和作业很难与文本结构联系起来。最后，我们为教育出版商提供了建议。

期刊介绍： The Dutch Journal of Applied Linguistics (DuJAL) focuses on promoting Dutch and Belgian work in applied linguistics among an international audience, but also welcomes contributions from other countries. It caters for both the academic society in the field and for language and communication experts working in other contexts, such as institutions involved in language policy, teacher training, curriculum development, assessment, and educational and communication consultancy. DuJAL is the digital continuation of Toegepaste Taalwetenschap in Artikelen, which had been the journal of Anéla, the Dutch Association of Applied Linguistics, for forty years. Like its predecessor, DuJAL wants to offer a platform to young researchers in applied linguistics, i.e. PhD candidates and MA students. In order to maintain a high standard all submissions are subjected to a ‘double blind’ review by at least one external reviewer and two of the editors. Contributions may be written in Dutch, English, German or French.
