21、chool English composition course. The significance of the new method for students and some points teachers should consider are also discussed in the paper.At the present time in most Chinese high schools, English composition courses, as well as other courses, are given in a traditional classroom. Fr
22、izler (1995) describes a traditional classroom as “a physical space (a room) with four walls, located in a building on a campus”. “The room is filled with desks and chairs which face a chalkboard (or each other), and there is an overhead projector screen or a map rolled up and stored on the wall, ab
23、ove the chalkboard. In this room you find a teacher and a group of studentsall of whom interact instantaneously, in real time.” An English writing course given in a traditional classroom usually includes the following steps: 1) instructor assigning a topic on the blackboard and briefly explaining it
24、; 2) students having a group discussion on the topic; 3) teacher providing suggestions while students are discussing; 4) a list of detailed requirements being given by the teacher; 5) students writing their essays. In such a composition course, a teacher is the center of the classroom activities. Th
25、ough students can have group discussions, they are still not provided a non-obstruction classroom communication environment. The most important writing ability (i.e. elaborative faculty) has not been well developed.Chapter 2 Theoretical Foundations2.1 Barbara Walvoords Process ApproachDr. Barbara Wa
26、lvoord first puts forward his method of teaching writing as a process in 1991. (Hatcher, 1995) With the process approach, students work on writing and rewriting one or two papers for an entire semester, where in traditional composition courses students produce six to ten discrete papers modeled on d
27、ifferent rhetorical patterns. “The process approach emphasized such pre-writing exercises as free writing, brain-storming, outlining, first drafts, peer reviews, and student-teacher conferences, with numerous draft revisions until an acceptable final copy is produced Compared to traditional approach
28、es of teaching writing-approaches that focused on formal instruction in grammar, and numerous stand-alone attempts to produce an acceptable paper-the process approach seemed to make intuitive sense” (Hatcher, 1995). 引文格式。在References 中注出。However, the process approach mainly has three problems. First,
29、 there is not enough time for teachers to go over all students drafts and give detailed suggestions for each student. Second, it is very difficult for teachers to endorse writing instruction for each students draft because with such an approach, students ideas are widely varied from those with the t
30、raditional approach. Finally, since there are so many free writings, outlines and drafts, keeping all these manuscripts, classifying them and passing them among students for peer reviews seems even impossible.2.2 Bernie Dodge and Tom Marchs New Teaching Method: WebQuestDeveloped by Bernie Dodge and
31、Tom March of San Diego State University, a WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented activity in which some or all of the information that learners interact with comes from resources on the Internet. (Dodge, 1995)A WebQuest normally includes five basic components:1) Introduction: set the stage for the activit
32、y; catch the readers attention to draw them into the quest; provide background information.2) Task: state what the students will be required to do; avoid surprises down the road; detail what products will be expected and the tools that are to be used to produce them.3) Process: give a step-by-step d
33、escription, concise and clearly laid out; provide links to Internet sites interwoven within the steps.4) Evaluation: display a rubric to measure the product as objectively as possible; leave little room for question.5) Conclusion: summarize the experience; allow reflection about the process; add hig
34、her level questions that may be researched at another time; give food for thought as to where they can go with the info they have learned, using it in a different situation.March (1998) generalizes the three main advantages of WebQuest as following: (1) Student Motivation & Authenticity; (2) Develop
35、ing Thinking Skills; (3) Cooperative Learning. These advantages meet the needs of writing instruction. Of course WebQuest can be used to teach high school English composition, but there should be some modifications because English is not the mother tongue of the teaching objects and the purpose of a
36、 writing course is not to come to a conclusion but guide students to form their own ideas.2.3 A Brief Introduction to Internet Assisted English Composition InstructionTo teach writing with the Internet, both teaching materials and teaching activities should be put online so as to achieve rapid and w
37、ide transportation of information. This new approach inherits almost all the advantages of WebQues. Online discussions help students have better comprehension and richer consideration about the assigned topics. Abundant sources online help students to form their own ideas. In an Internet assisted En
38、glish composition course, the teaching activities of the process approach which include pre-writing exercises, brain-storming, outlining, first drafts, peer reviews and student-teacher conferences can be run more orderly and efficiently. In a word, the purpose of the study is to make the process app
39、roach work more effectively on the base of a WebQuest.Chapter 3 Research MethodologyTo teach English composition with the Internet is quite different from a normal composition course. An experiment is conducted to show both the benefits and limitations of the Internet assisted high school English co
40、mposition instruction. After the experiment, certain data are collected and analyzed.3.1 Experimental InstructionFirst, a high school Grade 2 class of 50 students, which comes from Suzhou High School of Jiangsu Province, is chosen to take a pretest. The class is divided into two smaller classes, acc
41、ording to pretest scores, so as to make the average levels of English language of the two classes almost the same.Secondly, assign a teacher to instruct the two classes separately (make sure the same quantity of time spent on both classes), teaching Class A in the conventional way and teaching Class
42、 B by the following steps:1. Use web for publishing assignments before class, familiarize the students with the topics which will be discussed in class.2. Hold a classroom discussion on campus BBS, help students analyze the topics and draw out their outlines.3. Ask students to write their first draf
43、ts after class and e-mail them to the teacher, together with questions that may come up while writing.4. Read e-mailed drafts, pick out key problems:a. Excerpt one or two essays, highlight where students perform well.b. Exhibit some students problematic writings, and show some ways to solve these pr
44、oblems.c. Present other problems, hold a classroom discussion through BBS again, and guide students to solve the problems.5. Broadcast students e-mail addresses, ICQ numbers or MSN IDs so that they can communicate with each other outside class.6. Classify students drafts and publish them online so t
45、hat students with the same topics can know what and how others have done. If there is a need, they can have a further discussion, pointing out problems for each other and solving the problems cooperatively.7. Repeat Step 4 and Step 6, guide students to discover and solve as many problems as possible
46、 so that they can understand how to improve their essays themselves.Thirdly, after a period of separate teaching, get the students in both classes to write an essay on a same topic without teachers guidance, but they may do it the way they were taught to fulfill the task.Finally, collect the final s
47、cripts of the two classes, mix them together and assign another teacher to give marks. Meantime, design a questionnaire on this experiment, ask students from Class B to finish it.3.2 Data Collection and Data Analysis During the 2 months experiment, 4 real time discussions were held in both classes.
48、Each time, the numbers of ideas every student contributed was recorded to see how differently the two teaching approaches effect on the development of students thinking ability. The pretest scores and posttest scores of both classes are recorded to compare the effects of the two approaches and to fi
49、nd out some trends of the development of students writing ability. The questionnaires are collected and calculated to find out problems for future improvement. Microsoft Excel is used to analyze the data since they are quite simple.Chapter 4 Results and Discussions4.1 Results of the ExperimentChart
