33、sThe results of the two questionnaires are presented in Graph 1 and Table 1. Graph 1 shows the comparison of degree of interest before and after the implementation of the project. And table 1 shows students preference to types of vocabulary teaching. After four weeks research, I designed Questionnai

34、re Two that was partly based on Questionnaire One designed before research. By now, I was more awake of the usefulness of the vocabulary teaching I designed. I especially hoped to know what my students had gained and which methods they preferred.The fact that the degree of interest increased from 38

35、.5% before implementation of the project to 57.6% after it shows that the activities to enhance students vocabulary teaching were effective. The objective of our research is to enhance my students interest in doing vocabulary teaching, such a result (from 44.5% to70.1%) is very encouraging. It prove

36、s that the implementation of the solutions is fruitful and effective.指导过程报告5Process Report-5Student： Liu LiliStage 5: Project evaluationTutors Comments: (problems and suggestions)Tutor _ Date _ Score _ContentAfter I thought seriously and had exchanged views on the project with my students, I findout

37、 that although students understand the importance of word and mistakes, there is still much that needs further improvement. Only when I make continuous reflection in my teaching, can I make greater progress. The most frequently mentioned problems can be summarized as the following three:Firstly, the

38、 problem of the nature of word training: the students need more practice in nature.Secondly, the students cant use word formation.Thirdly, the relationship between remember vocabulary and grammar-oriented exam: most of my students say “I hope I can improve my speaking ability and pass grammar-orient

39、ed exams.” So let student know importance of vocabulary. 指导过程报告6Process Report-6Student Liu LiliStage 6: Final reportTutors Comments: (problems and suggestions)Tutor _ Date _ Score _ContentIdentifying a problemLanguage is a communication tool. And the purpose for learning English in China has change

40、d in recent years due to the Open Door Policy. In the past, everyday communication was not the main goal because one didnt need to listen and speak in English. but now remembering vocabulary is very important. The students should not only express themselves, they can also communicate in different ca

41、ses according to the culture. But in my teaching, some of my students who have high grades in English are not good at remember English words .Some can not express themselves in English.Problem analysisIn my opinion, there were four main reasons that accounted for students Firstly, some students only

42、 lay stress on language ,grammar and structure, ignore vocabulary teaching. . Secondly, some students wanted to recite vocabulary, but they dont how to recite words or sometimes they know surface of the word , they cant use them. Fourthly, some students didnt think the remembering words is useful to

43、 their grammar-oriented exam, so they were not interested in it at all.The Problems had been troubling me for a long time and now I was determined to work towards the solution to the problem. I started off by making an analysis of the problems.2.1.1 The analytic methodMy Problem is how do students i

44、ncrease the size of vocabulary Why some dont, while others do? Who are the some that dont? And who are the others that do? Moreover, “my students” is in contrast with “my colleagues students”. This prompted me to made a chain of reflections: What about some of my colleagues students? Is it also the

45、case that they arent interested in oral practice? If, on the other hand, all of my colleagues students are interested, then my problem is actually caused by myself, not by my students. Probably the training I gave students was poorly designed. 2.1.2 Cause analysisI did the Cause Analysis on both “te

46、achers side” and “students side”. I analysised the four main reasons of students not being interested in remembering words. Teachers side that is myself.About the first reason: Some students cant remember vocabulary or today they can remember tomorrow they forget.I should check the vocabular

47、y first in class.About the second reason: Some students wanted to remember , but they didnt know how to rememberProbably I am not prepared for the situational of words I only teach them the surface meaning. About the third reason: Some “low students” lacked confidence, who are weak at thetraditional

48、 grammar-oriented written exam.I didnt encourage these students that remembering can make them enjoy English, can make they have enough confidence. And these were very important to every English learners.About the fourth reason: Some students didnt think the vocabulary teaching useful to their gramm

49、ar-oriented exam, so they were not interested in it.I didnt tell the students that the relationship between oral practice and grammar - You cant learn grammar rules well just by listening, understanding, taking notes or by remembering what the teacher teaches. If you speak and use by oral way these

50、useful sentences which contain the key grammar after youve understood these grammars, you will master these grammars much better. And this will give you a big help on your grammar-oriented exam. The students sideFirstly , Students cant distinguish the nature of word.Secondly students cant gra

51、sp the methodsThirdly students dont pay attention to letters rule of combination and pronunciation. Fourthly offer more encouragement to the “low students” with low marks on the “grammar exams” to grow confidence; try to design some oral activities to improve the students ability on the “grammar exa

52、m” .2.1.3 Questionnaire survey:I designed one questionnaire and distributed to my students before conducting the research and required that they finish it within 20 minutes. All of them, 22 students, returned their questionnaires that were left anonymous. When all these data came in, I made some sta

53、tistical evaluation. The result showed that 100% of the students thought the vocabulary teachingwas important and that about 80.5% of the students thought word practice was quite necessary for their future development, which indicated that the students have been fully awarded of the importance and n

54、ecessity of oral practice. But they might encounter difficulties, such as the language level is higher than the students, so they lost their confidence and interest.After making the above analysis, Ive got the result that inadequate teaching design is mainly responsible for students lack of interest

55、 and method in remembering words. So in my future teaching, I will try to improve my vocabulary teaching design through adding some items to improve the students pronunciation, giving them more encouragement and more detailed instructions for their words . etc.2.2 Project objectiveThe project objective is inquiring the methods of remembering words. 2.3 Project hypothesisIt is hypothesized that learners the size of vocabulary can be enhanced by well-designed work.2.4 Project rational2.4.1 Communicati
