【摘要】：在我国外语学习者众多,尤以大学生群体为主,但他们的英语水平参差不齐。英语学习动机是影响学习者英语学习诸多因素中的主要因素之一,强烈的学习动机有助于学生的英语学习。因此,学习者的英语学习动机是第二语言习得研究的重点之一。国内外学者已就第二语言学习动机开展了大量理论与实践研究,研究对象已涉及大学生、高中生等众多群体,为后续的进一步研究提供了夯实基础。近年来,随着中国“大飞机”项目的提出与发展,越来越多的学子心怀飞天报国之梦投身于祖国的航空事业,催生出大批飞行学员。虽有梦想,尤憾英语。飞行学员的文化成绩要求并不高,导致他们的英语基础不够扎实。但英语水平与职业息息相关,他们一方面希望提高英语,一方面由于缺乏对自身英语学习状况的了解,而觉无从下手,呈现英语学习动机不明的现象。本文在国内外文献的基础上,综合运用问卷和访谈对南京航空航天大学随机抽取的240名飞行学员的英语学习动机进行研究,在高一虹(2003)的英语学习动机调查问卷的基础上综合前测结果设计问卷,再通过小范围的发放与测试形成最终问卷。采用SPSS20.0对问卷数据分别进行因子分析、独立样本T检验和相关性分析,结合问卷结果开展访谈,以探讨飞行学员的英语学习动机类型、两种飞行模式下飞行学员英语学习动机的差异、以及英语学习动机与英语成绩间的相关性。经过数据分析,结果如下:首先,飞行学员的英语学习动机可分为:内在兴趣动机、成绩动机、个人发展动机、社会责任动机、信息媒介动机和学习情境动机。其次,独立样本T检验表明“3+1”和“2+2”两大培养模式下的飞行学员的英语学习动机不存在明显差异,动机强弱大体一致,但“2+2”模式的飞行学员的动机强度除在信息媒介和成绩动机上弱于“3+1”模式外,其他四类均强于“3+1”模式的飞行学员。最后,相关性分析检验发现六类动机均于英语成绩呈正相关,即,动机越强,越有利于英语成绩的提升。其中,信息媒介动机和社会责任动机于英语成绩的相关性分别为最强和最弱。根据以上飞行学员的英语学习动机研究结果,从飞行学员自身、教师和教材三方面就如何提升飞行学员的英语学习动机提出相应的策略。
[Abstract]:There are many foreign language learners in China, especially college students, but their English proficiency is uneven. English learning motivation is one of the main factors that affect learners' English learning. Strong motivation is helpful to students' English learning. Therefore, learners' English learning motivation is one of the focuses of second language acquisition (SLA) research. Scholars at home and abroad have carried out a lot of theoretical and practical research on second language learning motivation. The research object has involved many groups, such as college students, high school students and so on, which provides a solid foundation for further research. In recent years, with the introduction and development of the "Big plane" project in China, more and more students have devoted themselves to the aviation cause of the motherland with the dream of flying for their country, which has spawned a large number of flight cadets. Although there are dreams, I regret English. Flying cadets do not require a high level of cultural achievement, resulting in a lack of a solid foundation of English. However, the English level is closely related to the occupation. On the one hand, they want to improve their English, on the other hand, because of lack of understanding of their own English learning conditions, they feel powerless and have no idea of their motivation to learn English. On the basis of domestic and foreign literature, this paper studies the motivation of 240 flight cadets randomly selected from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics by means of questionnaires and interviews. Based on the questionnaire of English Learning motivation of Senior one Rainbow (2003), this paper designs the questionnaire based on the results of the pre-test, and then forms the final questionnaire through a small scale of distribution and testing. The questionnaire data were analyzed by factor analysis, independent sample T test and correlation analysis with SPSS20.0, and the results of the questionnaire were used to conduct interviews to explore the types of English learning motivation of flying cadets. The difference of English learning motivation between the two flight modes and the correlation between English learning motivation and English achievement. Through data analysis, the results are as follows: firstly, the English learning motivation of flight cadets can be divided into: intrinsic interest motivation, achievement motivation, personal development motivation, social responsibility motivation, information media motivation and learning situation motivation. Secondly, the independent sample T test shows that there is no significant difference in English learning motivation between the "31" and "22" training modes, and the motivation is generally the same. However, the motivation intensity of the flight cadets in the "22" mode is weaker than that in the "31" mode except for the information media and achievement motivation, and the other four types of flight cadets are stronger than those in the "31" mode. Finally, the correlation analysis shows that the six types of motivation are positively correlated with English achievement, that is, the stronger the motivation is, the more beneficial it is to the improvement of English achievement. Among them, the correlation between information media motivation and social responsibility motivation is the strongest and the weakest respectively. Based on the results of the study on English learning motivation of flying cadets, this paper puts forward corresponding strategies to improve the English learning motivation of flying cadets from three aspects: themselves, teachers and teaching materials.
