摘要

需求分析可以为制定外语教学政策,确定外语教学目标和外语教学的课程设计提供依据。随着学生主体地位在外语教学中的增强,需求分析在外语教学实践中得到了广泛的应用。研究生是各学科专业高端人才的后备力量,他们的英语水平是衡量其综合素质的重要标准之一。研究生应具有较高的英语水平已不再是个人的主观愿望,而是社会发展对他们的客观要求。但是笔者通过查阅相关文献发现:国内针对非英语专业研究生英语学习需求的研究屈指可数,尚未形成系统性的研究。因此,作者对非英语专业研究生英语学习需求的总体情况进行调查,并对文理科研究生的英语学习需求进行对比,旨在为研究生英语的教和学提供一些数据参考和有效的建议。
  本文主要采用问卷调查和访谈相结合的方式,以广西师范大学的192名非英语专业研究生为调查对象进行调查研究和访谈。笔者基于陈冰冰的需求分析模型,设计了非英语专业研究生英语学习需求分析的调查问卷。该问卷包含九个维度:学习动机、学习者个人需求、学习资源、学习策略、评估方法、教材、课堂教学、课程设计和教师素质。本文研究的问题为:(1)非英语专业研究生英语学习需求的总体情况如何?(2)文科研究生和理科研究生在英语学习需求上存在怎样的差异性?本文研究发现:(1)非英语专业研究生对英语学习有着较强烈的需求。其中对课堂教学和教师素质的需求和期望尤为强烈。除此之外,其他几个方面的需求也较为强烈;(2)文科和理科研究生在英语学习需求上存在显著差异。其中在三个方面的差异尤为明显,即英语学习动机、英语学习策略的使用情况和对公共英语课程设置的需求。
  基于研究成果,本文提出了几点可操作性的建议:在研究生公共英语教学方面,应该做到:(1)选择实用性强及富有时代感的公共英语教材;(2)课堂活动多样化,提高其交际能力;(3)丰富研究生英语学习资源;(4)采用形成性评估和终结性评估相结合的教学评价方式。在公共英语课程设置方面,应该做到:(1)进行分级教学;(2)开设ESP选修课;(3)开设英语学术论文写作课。在公共英语教师方面,应当做到:(1)加强专业修养;(2)帮助学生形成稳定的英语学习动机;(3)训练学生使用英语学习策略等等。
