  • This study reports on the use of the trait and state cognitive/metacognitive strategy use and the difference of the trait/state strategy use according to students' proficiency level. First of all, for checking up the trait strategy use, 119 first-grade male students in a high school completed the questionnaire on strategies which they thought they used during a reading test. Secondly, to find out their state strategy use, students took a fifteen-item reading comprehension test, followed by filling out questionnaires on cognitive and metacognitive strategies used in the test. This study employed quantitative data analysis. The results suggested that (1) the cognitive and metacognitive strategy use in the trait and state conditions are used the most by the high proficiency group and they are correlated respectively; (2) these strategies are used with statistically significant difference according to students' proficiency level, especially to the lower level students. The highly successful group uses the cognitive and metacognitive strategy in the actual test situation more than the lower proficient group; there is no difference in trait and state strategy use.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 영어 영재 학생들과 일반 중학생의 영어 평가 지문을 읽는 동안 메타인지 읽기전략사용의 차이점을 알아보고자 하는데 있다. 이를 위해, C시의 영어 영재 74명과 일반 중학생 90명을 대상으로 연구를 실시하였다. 두 그룹의 연구 대상자들의 메타인지 읽기전략을 살펴보기 위해 학기 말에 두 연구대상자들에게 MARSI 설문지를 배포하여 작성하게 하였다. 연구 대상자들의 메타인지 읽기전략의 차이점을 분석하기 위해 빈도 분석과 t-검정을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 일반적으로 영어 영재 학생들과 일반 중학생들이 영어 평가 지문을 읽는 동안의 메타인지 읽기전략 사용에는 차이를 보였다. 다시 말해, 영어 영재 학생들이 일반 중학생들에 비해 영어 평가 지문 읽기에서 더 자주 메타인지 읽기전략을 사용하는 것으로 나타났다. 개별 전략에 대해 말하자면, 영어 영재 학생들이 일반 중학생들에 비해 총체적 전략과 문제해결 전략을 더 자주 사용하는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만, 두 그룹의 연구대상자들은 지원전략의 사용에서는 통계적으로 유의미한 차이를 보이지는 않았다. 이 연구 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구는 영어 영재 학생들과 일반 중학생을 위한 효과적인 영어 읽기 지도에 대한 교육적인 시사점을 제공할 것이다.

  • This study reviews an English enhancement course implemented for medical and nursing college students of 2011 to improve their standardized English test scores. A total of 117 first-year students underwent the pre-test and the post-TOEIC in November 2011. After the pre-test, lectures on listening enhancement strategies and problem solving tactics on reading comprehension were supplemented with 4 times of enhancement-tests. Their pre- and post-TOEIC results were compared to see if such enhancement strategies were effective to improve their TOEIC scores. It was further to investigate, through survey questionnaires, how the subjects felt about a number of pre-test-type TOEIC exercise with what-to-listen and how-to-infer listening strategies and pattern-drill practices for reading comprehension. It was found that the scores of listening comprehension improved significantly for both major students whereas reading scores showed slight decrease among nursing majors. It is concluded that administering numerous pre-test-type-TOEIC exercise is effective for students to improve their listening scores supplemented with listening strategies Also, students' response showed positive toward the enhancement course.

  • 본 논문에서는 관계절 문장의 마디별 읽기 시간을 측정한 세 실험 결과를 종합하여 한국어 문장 해독의 처리 전략 및 수행 구조를 제안하였다. 첫째로,읽기 시간의 증가가 주로 명사 마디에서 일어났다는 결과에 근거해,한국어 해독이 명사 중심으로 이루어질 가능성에 대하여 논의하였다. 둘째로 문장 구조의 특성과 작업 기억의 부담을 읽기 시간의 증감과 관련지어 세가지 처리를 구분하였으며,병행기능 효과를 설명하기 위한 처리 전략을 제안하였다.셋째로 인접한 마디간의 읽기 시간의 차이에 기초해 관계절 문장 이해의 수행 구조를 제안하였다.이들 전략과 수행 구조는 관계절문장에서 보이는 마디별 읽기 시간의 변화를 잘 설명할 뿐만 아니라,현재 실험 자료가 없는 관계절 문장 유형에서 마디별 읽기 시간이 어떻게 나타날 것인지를 예측할 수 있게 한다.마지막으로 앞으로의 실험을 위한 여러 생각들을 논의 하였다.

  • This study is to suggest systematic and effective reading comprehension techniques or strategies to be used in EFL reading classes. According to the definition of reading and reading process, six essential elements of reading comprehension are categorized: 1) reading speed; 2) skimming and scanning; 3) logical organization; 4) pleasure reading; 5) vocabulary; 6) cultural background and world knowledge. To present a more effective teaching and learning approach to EFL reading comprehension than ever, an experiment was performed. The hypothesis of the experimental study was that there would be a difference in students' reading speed as well as reading comprehension and vocabulary between an experimental group and a control group depending upon the teaching approaches (experimental vs. traditional). The result of the study indicates that the experimental teaching approach which intensifies speed reading and pleasure reading techniques as well as 4 other essential techniques of reading comprehension is more effective than the traditional one in teaching and learning reading comprehension.

  • In the last 20 years, educators have made significant advances in their thinking about how students learn and what it is that teachers ought to teach. They attempted to teach thinking s kills and designed instructional programs to facilitate learning. The purpose of this study was to review metacognitive approaches in reading comprehension instruction, and to provide some practical implications to school teachers. First, this study reviewed the concept of metacognition. Metacognition can be divided by metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive experiences. Metacognitive knowledge consists of knowledge or beliefs about what factors interact to affect the outcome of cognitive enterprises. Metacognitive experiences are executive control of one's own cognitive process, which include planning, monitorning and evaluating. Second, this study attempted to investigate the processes of reading comprehension in the metacognitively based view. Third, this study reviewed three kinds of reading comprehension instruction. In the metacognitive approaches, instruction is viewed as constructive process in which teachers and students mediate and negotiate meaning from the instructional environment. In order to enhance reading comprehension, teachers should use examples, explicit instruction, modeling, and elaboration to provide sufficient scaffolding to students. The scaffolding gradually diminishes as students learn to use and apply the reading strategies on their own. Also, students should be encouraged to attribute successful reading to the use of appropriate strategies.

  • The objective of the present study was to model the relationships between language learning strategy use and language proficiency among the Asian (Korean, Japanese, and Taiwanese) students studying English in the United States. The instruments were a language learning strategy Questionnaire and the Institutional Testing Program Test of English as a Foreign Language (ITP TOEFL). Structural equation modeling was utilized to model the relationships between language learning strategies and language proficiency. The present study found only weak relationships between language learning strategies and language proficiency. Only 13% and 15% of variance of the listening and grammar/reading factor were explained by the language learning strategies. The metacognitive strategies appeared not to have direct relationships to the language skill factors, as was found in other studies (Purpura, 1996, 1997). The effects of the social and affective strategies were very small. They in combination could account about 1% and 4% of the variance of the listening and grammar/reading factors.

  • 본 논문에서는 웹기반 독서교육 시스템의 새로운 모델을 제안한다. 기존의 웹기반 독서교육 시스템은 학습자들의 상호작용 강화 및 독서 흥미를 높이는 데는 효과적이었으나 독서의 결과 지도에만 치중하여 장시간을 요하는 독서 과정에서 웹기반 시스템의 활용도는 극히 미진하였다. 본 논문에서는 독서교육을 읽기 전, 읽는 중, 읽은 후의 활동으로 세분화하고 각 단계에서 활용할 수 있는 웹기반 독서 전략들을 개발하여 교사와 학생, 학부모의 적극적인 상호작용이 이루어지도록 하였으며 전문가 협력학습, 문제해결학습 등 국어과의 교수-학습 유형에 따른 전략의 적용 방법을 제시함으로써 정규 교과 시간의 독서 지도가 활성화 되도록 하였다.

  • The analysis on the use of lexical discovery and consolidation strategies that have been researched within the area of vocabulary learning strategies (VLS) have not sufficiently drawn the interest of EFL practitioners with regard to vocational high school learners. The results, however, are expected to have implications for the design of vocabulary tasks and instructional materials for EFL learners. The present study investigates EFL vocational high school learners' use of lexical discovery and consolidation strategies with questionnaires, where the use of the learners' lexical discovery strategies were further validated with the think-aloud methodology by asking samples of proficient and less proficient learners to report on their reading process while reading L2 texts that had not been exposed to the learners. The results indicated that there were significant differences between the two groups of learners in the employment of 11 of the strategies which were in the categories of determination, social, memory, and metacognitive strategies, but not for cognitive strategies. The pattern of strategies indicated that different lexical discovery and consolidation strategies were employed relatively more by one proficiency group than another. The study suggests some implications for how strategy-based instruction can be implemented in EFL classrooms.
