چکیده مقاله :
This study investigated the impact of web-based instruction Googling techniques (GT) and strategic and interactive writing instruction (SIWI) on the L2 writing performance of deaf and hearing-impaired (DHI) Iranian learners. To this end, 60 Iranian male and female DHI students at the elementary level participated in the study. The participants were divided into two experimental and control groups. The experimental group benefited from two particular instructional focuses of this study: GT and SIWI. In order to assess the effect of the treatment, a pre-test and post-test design was utilized and the obtained results were statistically analyzed. The findings revealed that online strategy-based instruction could positively affect the writing performance of Iranian DHI learners. The findings can have pedagogical implications for material practitioners, CALL package designers, and distance teaching planners to include strategy instruction in English courses for the DHI population.
برای افراد ناشنوا و کم شنوا بهبود توانایی نوشتن به طور خاص یکی از مولفه‌های مهم یادگیری زبان می‌باشد. جنبه نوآوری تحقیق حاضر، افزایش توانایی مهارت نوشتن زبان آموزان از طریق دستورالعمل‌های آموزش مبتنی بر وب از طریق استفاده از تکنیک‌های گوگل به عنوان یک بستر آموزشی است. به طور کلی، این مطالعه دو هدف را بررسی می‌کند که شامل: (i) بررسی تأثیر آموزش مبتنی بر وب از طریق استفاده ازتکنیک‌های گوگل، (ii) در نظر گرفتن تکنیک‌های بازخورد اصلاحی دستورالعمل نوشتاری استراتژیک و تعاملی بر عملکرد مهارت نوشتاری آن‌ها در زبان دوم می‌باشد. بدین منظور، گروهی متشکل از ۶۰ زبان آموز دختر و پسر ناشنوا و کم شنوا در سطح مبتدی در این پژوهش شرکت نمودند. شرکت کنندگان در این مطالعه به دو گروه ۳۰ نفره تقسیم شدند. افراد در گروه‌های آزمایشی از دو روش آموزشی ویژه در این مطالعه شامل استفاده ازتکنیک‌های گوگل و تکنیک‌های بازخورد اصلاحی دستورالعمل نوشتاری استراتژیک و تعاملی بهره‌مند شدند. به منظور بررسی تاثیراین دو روش از قبل و بعد از آزمون استفاده شد. در نتیجه، داده‌ها از طریق آزمون t مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفتند. یافته‌ها نشان داد که استفاده ازاستراتژی‌ها در بهبود توانایی نوشتن شرکت کنندگان بسیار موفق بوده است. بنابراین، یافته‌ها نشان می‌دهد که آموزش مبتنی بر استراتژی آنلاین می‌تواند بر توانایی نوشتن زبان آموزان افراد ناشنوا و کم شنوا ایرانی تأثیر مثبت بگذارد. این مطالعه ممکن است پیامدهای آموزشی مناسبی برای تولید محتوا، طراحان و برنامه‌ریزان آموزش از راه دور داشته باشد که در برگیرنده آموزش استراتژی ها در دوره‌های انگلیسی است.
