对外汉语词汇教学中的全身反应法准实验研究 A Quasi-Experimental Study on Total Physical Response in Vocabulary Teaching of Chinese as a Foreign Language

Abstract

众所周知，词汇是语言的基本要素，也是学习语言的基础。此研究目的是将全身反应法运用到对外汉语初级阶段词汇教学中，以验证吉隆坡大学零基础马来学生在使用全身反应法后对词汇的掌握成效。此研究希望能论证全身反应法能有效提高学生对词汇的记忆效果，揭示全身反应法在对外汉语初级阶段词汇教学方面的价值，为本地对外汉语教师提供借鉴。这是一项全身反应法的准实验研究。研究样本分为实验组和控制组，各组人数为32人。实验组运用全身反应法进行词汇教学，而控制组则使用一般教学法进行词汇教学。本研究的研究工具是词汇前测和后测，其中所得的数据以SPSS软件进行处理分析，以获得相关的结论。研究结果显示运用全身反应法在对外汉语初级阶段词汇教学的成效优于一般教学法。

As we all know, vocabulary is the basic element of language and the basis of language learning. The objective of this study is to apply the Total Physical Response (TPR) to vocabulary teaching at the preliminary stage of teaching Chinese as a foreign language in order to investigate the effectiveness of TPR on vocabulary mastery among Malaysian students at the Universiti Kuala Lumpur. This study also seeks to examine whether TPR can effectively improve students' memory of vocabulary as a means to reveal the value of TPR in teaching vocabulary at the preliminary stage of teaching Chinese as a foreign language as well as to provide a reference for local Chinese language teachers. This study adopts a quasi-experimental design. The research sample was divided into experimental group and control group with 32 students in each group. The experimental group used TPR to teach vocabulary while the control group used conventional teaching method to teach vocabulary. The research instruments of this study were vocabulary pretest and posttest. The data collected were processed and analyzed using SPSS software to obtain relevant conclusions. The results show that TPR is more effective in teaching vocabulary at the preliminary stage of teaching Chinese as a foreign language than the conventional teaching method.
