The effectiveness of component word acquisition on the first grade students' repertoire of word

Abstract

研究者透過課堂學習研究(Learning study, Marton, 2001)，探討「部件識字」的成效，及其對學生識字量的影響，以調整現有的小一語文教學內容及教學法，鞏固學生學習語文的根基。研究分析「部件識字」對學生識字量的影響，以及學生的識字能力能否轉移到閱讀層面。 研究以部件識字法配合變易理論進行，研究團隊設計不同教學內容及活動，透過不同策略，強化學生對「部件識字法」的認識，掌握當中的認字技巧，以提高識字能力。過程中，研究團隊先透過學生於識字前測的表現，診斷出學習難點，再定出課堂學習內容及其關鍵特徵，透過共同備課，聚焦地為特定學習內容設計教學活動。進行教學後，再透過後測檢視學生表現，利用有關數據，就學生的識字能力和識字量作量化分析。 研究結果顯示，「部件識字」對提升學生識字量的成效顯著，學生在掌握字詞形、音、義，書寫及應用字詞的能力上均有進步，亦有利學生進行字詞解碼及提前閱讀，以致識字能力能轉移到閱讀層面，有助提升閱讀能力。

Researchers investigated the effectiveness of the “Component Word Acquisition” and its influence on students’ Repertoire of Word through the Learning Study (Marton, 2001), in order to enhance the existing language teaching content and teaching methods; and to consolidate the foundation of students' language learning. The study will analyze the effect of Component Word Acquisition on students’ Repertoire of Word, and whether their abilities of literacy can be transferred to the reading level. Assisted with the Theory of Variation in addition to Component Word Acquisition, the Research team designed different course contents and activities and a variety of strategies, in order to improve students’ Repertoire of Word and the ability of literacy. Throughout the process, the Research team based on the students’ performance in the literacy ability pre-test to diagnose their difficulties in learning, and then set the learning contents outlines and identified its critical features. Specific teaching activities to the learning content were then tailor-made through collaborative lesson planning. Afterward, the students’ performance was studied through the literacy ability post-test. Data was gathered to perform the quantitative analysis on students’ Repertoire of Word and their abilities of literacy. The study results show that the “Component Word Acquisition” is remarkable to enhance students' Repertoire of Word, and improve their abilities of understanding the words’ forms, pronunciations and meanings, as well as words writing and application. This is also beneficial to students on word decoding, so that their abilities of literacy can be transferred to the reading level and thus to enhance their reading abilities
