Influence of Teacher’s Verbal Feedback on Teacher-student Interaction in Junior Middle School

摘要

近年来，师生交互逐渐成为英语教学研究的热点，越来越多的学者开始关注教师课堂中教师话语的反馈对教学效果的影响，以寻求有效的交互行为或反馈话语来提高课堂教学的效率和效果。为此，本文将探究中学英语课堂中教师反馈话语对师生互动效果所产生的影响，借以对中学英语课堂中教师的话语反馈行为提出建议，提高课堂师生交互效率，提升教学质量。

本研究的研究问题聚焦在中国初中英语课堂教学中（1）教师反馈话语对师生互动所产的影响；（2）教师反馈话语中存在的问题。本研究综合运用文献和统计的方法，随机选取第八届全国初中英语优质课大赛的三段比赛视频为研究对象，把录像中教师的反馈话语转录成文字，通过分析学生的反应行为判断教师反馈话语对师生交互效果的影响和存在的问题。

本研究通过数据分析发现，课堂中的教师反馈话语有对师生互动效果既有积极又有消极的影响，不同的影响效果取决于教师反馈话语的形式和数量。同时，数据分析发现学生参与课堂教学活动的程度和兴趣存在较大差异，大多数同学对于师生互动存在逃避行为，这成为有效运用教师反馈话语的最大障碍。基于此，本研究认为，通过教师反馈话语提高师生互动效果的基础在于提高学生参与课堂活动的积极性和兴趣，教师可以从这两个方面入手，提高教师反馈话语的效果。

Abstract

In recent years, teacher and student interaction in class has become a hot topic in the research of English teaching. More and more scholars are shifting their attention to teacher-student interaction in order to find out effective ways to promote teacher-student interaction in classrooms. Therefore, this thesis focuses on the influence of teacher’s verbal feedback on teacher-student interaction to offer suggestions to teacher’s verbal feedback in junior middle school English classroom to increase teacher-student interaction and teaching quality.

The research questions focus on two aspects in Chinese junior middle school class teaching: (1) the influence of teacher’s verbal feedback on teacher-student interaction; (2) the problems of teacher’s verbal feedback. The thesis integrates documentary method and statistical approach, choosing the three videos of the eighth English Contest as research subjects, transforming teacher’s verbal feedback in the videos into words to diagnose the influence and problems of teacher-student interaction by analyzing students’ reaction.

Based on the data analysis, this study finds that teacher’s verbal feedback has both positive and negative impact on teacher-student interaction according to the form and quantity. Moreover, the statistics show that students’ degree and interest of participating in teaching activities vary a lot. The biggest difficulty of using teacher’s verbal feedback is that most students will escape the interaction with teachers. Therefore, the thesis holds the view that increasing students’ interest and enthusiasm of class activities is the basis of improving teacher-student interaction through teacher’s verbal feedback. Teachers can improve teacher’s verbal feedback from these two perspectives. 

Key words: teacher’s verbal feedback, teacher-student interaction, learning efficiency
