摘要

语言习得研究强烈表明,写作对现代语言教学至关重要。目前的最佳实践表明,某种形式的目标语言写作是几乎所有类型的外语(FL)课程的一部分。然而,外语教师经常收到学生对外语课程写作要求的抱怨。许多教师似乎认为他们的学生对外语写作持消极态度,这种消极态度可能会损害学生的学习动机。本文对美国西部一所中等规模大学的759名FL学生进行了调查。这些学生被要求描述他们的外语写作任务,他们的个人外语写作,以及他们对写作对语言习得重要性的态度。结果表明,这些学生对外语写作的态度总体上是非常积极的,而且大多数学生都计划在大学毕业后继续用外语写作。

US University Learner Attitudes towards Foreign Language Writing
Language acquisition research strongly suggests that writing is essential to modern language instruction. Current best practice dictates that some form of target language writing be part of almost every type of foreign language (FL) course. However, FL instructors often receive complaints from students concerning the writing required in different FL courses. Many instructors appear to believe that their students have negative attitudes towards FL writing, and that negative attitudes may hurt student motivation. This paper reports on a survey of 759 FL students enrolled at a midsized university in the western United States. These students were asked to describe their FL writing assignments, their personal FL writing, and their attitudes towards the importance of writing to their language acquisition. Results indicate overall very positive attitudes towards FL writing among these students, as well as plans reported by the majority of students to continue to write in their FL after college.
