摘要
此項研究的目的是著眼於學生的反饋,探究將批判識能和多模態及問題導向學習融入英語為外語寫作課程的可能性。課程計畫的目標是完成電子書和宣傳短片。以批判識能的四項要素,分別為突破普通思維,探 究多重觀點,關注社會政治問題,和採取行動提升社會公正,設計架構成品的內容;多模態解讀收集的各種型態資料並呈現作品成果;同時,問題導向學習的方法提供機會和情境,讓學生討論並從多元觀點探討解決問題,以建構成品內容所需的知識和訊息。本研究總共有31位大學生分組參與,於台灣某大學進行,主要的研究資料是學生的期末問卷和反饋報告書,並與各階段計劃書和成品的草稿做比對。研究結果發現,此項整合性的寫作課程對英語為外語寫作教學是有效的並且具建設性,並獲得大部分參與研究的學生所認同。而且,此項批判性的、合作性的和創造性的寫作課程促進學生的寫作技能和個人成長與醒覺,連同習得其他的技巧。綜上,此項研究提供英語為外語寫作課程別具意義的洞見。


Abstract
This study aimed at exploring the possibility of incorporating critical literacy, multimodality, and problem-based learning into an EFL writing curriculum, especially focusing on the analysis of participants’ feedback. The purpose of the writing project was to accomplish an eBook and a trailer to promote the eBook. The four elements of critical literacy: “(1) disrupting the commonplace, (2) interrogating multiple viewpoints, (3) focusing on sociopolitical issues, and (4) taking action and promoting social justice” (Lewison et al., 2002, p. 382), were translated into the project design for developing the content of the final product with multimodality to decode materials and represent the content of the final products in a problem-based approach, which provided occasions and opportunities to strengthen discussion and diversify viewpoints for solving problems in the process of establishing knowledge and information for the content. Thirty-one undergraduates joined the study at a university in Taiwan. Mainly, students’ final surveys and final reflection papers were collected as research data and analyzed when related drafts were triangulated. The findings revealed that the integrated writing project proved effective and constructive in teaching EFL writing with the students’ acceptance in tremendous majority. Furthermore, the critical, collaborative, and creative project of writing contributed to the improvement of EFL learners’ writing skills and personal growth and awareness as well as other related skills. As a result, the study offered meaningful insights into the design of an EFL writing curriculum.
