摘要

这篇文章解决了西班牙裔英语作为第二语言（ESL）科学学生对英语能力的担忧，这使西班牙语个人在科学话语中的代表性长期不足。波多黎各大学凯西分校完成的教师和学生认知调查表明，西班牙裔ESL本科生需要提高英语生产能力。那些英语能力较弱的理科专业学生处于明显的不利地位，目前的制度实践无法满足他们的需求。建议包括以生产能力和跨学科合作为重点的课程开发。

Hispanic ESL Science Majors Need More Practice Using English for Scientific Purposes

This article addresses concerns about English competencies among Hispanic English as a second language (ESL) science students that perpetuate underrepresentation of Hispanic individuals in scientific discourse. Faculty and student perception surveys completed at the University of Puerto Rico at Cayey suggest that Hispanic ESL undergraduates require increased productive competencies in English. Those science majors with weak proficiency in English are significantly disadvantaged and current institutional practices don’t address their needs. Recommendations include course development focused on productive competencies and interdisciplinary collaboration.
