摘要

摘要新冠肺炎疫情对传统的语言学习和教学产生了很大的影响，导致在线学习和教学的快速转变。在许多地方，语言学习者和教师在资源有限和准备不足的情况下突然转向在线教学。本研究考察了沙特阿拉伯英语作为外语(EFL)教师在在线语言教学中遇到的挑战和策略，并探讨了他们如何应对这些挑战以实施在线语言教学。它还确定了帮助语言教师更有效地进行在线教学和更好地应对COVID-19大流行等紧急情况的方法。在网络环境中验证这些挑战和策略为如何更好地在线教授语言提供了见解。研究结果表明，在线语言教学被认为是一种专业实践，它具有灵活性和可访问性等优点，但也带来了教学和技术问题。在线语言教学需要情境化的策略，包括保持学生的学习动机和持续的专业发展。关键词:网络语言教学英语作为外语在职教师挑战策略披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突

Challenges and Strategies of In-Service EFL Teachers in Online Language Teaching: A Saudi Arabian Case Study

AbstractThe outbreak of COVID-19 has greatly influenced conventional language learning and teaching, leading to a rapid transformation toward online learning and teaching. In many places, language learners and teachers experienced a sudden shift to online instruction with limited resources and inadequate preparation. This study examines the challenges and strategies that Saudi Arabian English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers experienced in online language teaching and explores how they dealt with such challenges for the implementation of online language teaching. It also identifies ways to help language teachers be more effective in online teaching and better respond to emergencies like the COVID-19 pandemic. The verification of these challenges and strategies in online settings provides insights into how to teach languages better online. The results of the study indicate that online language teaching was accepted as a professional practice, which has benefits such as flexibility and accessibility, but also poses pedagogical and technical issues. Online language teaching requires context-specific strategies, including maintaining student motivation and continuing professional development.Keywords: Online language teachingEnglish as a foreign languagein-service teacherschallengesstrategies Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.

期刊介绍： Under the editorship of D. LaMont Johnson, PhD, a nationally recognized leader in the field of educational computing, Computers in the Schools is supported by an editorial review board of prominent specialists in the school and educational setting. Material presented in this highly acclaimed journal goes beyond the “how we did it” magazine article or handbook by offering a rich source of serious discussion for educators, administrators, computer center directors, and special service providers in the school setting. Articles emphasize the practical aspect of any application, but also tie theory to practice, relate present accomplishments to past efforts and future trends, identify conclusions and their implications.
