【中文摘要】:
文章通过内容分析、描述性分析、社会网络分析,对比研究了中外英语教师在线发展论坛中的合作反思内容、水平、社群特征。研究发现:合作反思内容大趋势相似,然而国内教师注重教学技能,但教学理论基础薄弱;国外教师更加关注技术在教学中的应用。从合作反思水平看,中外教师都缺乏长远的专业发展目标,但国内教师思辨性高阶思维水平较低。两个论坛社群特征差异较大。国外论坛人数较多,形成了以业内专家为中心地位的社群;国内论坛人数较少,没有形成显著的系列中心性。
【英文摘要】:
This study is designed to compare the contents, the levels, and the social network features of Chinese and foreign English teachers' online collaborative reflection in the two internet forums. The data were analyzed through content analysis, descriptive analysis, and social network analysis. The results show: a) Teachers in both forums attach importance to teaching methods and evaluation. However, the Chinese English teachers have less interest in pedagogical theory, and foreign English teachers focus more on applying educational technology into their classroom. b) Chinese English teachers' expert reflective level is much lower than that of foreign English teachers, and both of them lack establishing goals and commitment to profession. c) There are some differences of the social network features of sociogram, cohesion, and centrality analysis between the two forums.
