项目摘要

This research concerns methodologies allowing teachers to produce their own computer-based educational materials more easily and rapidly, so that computers can be utilized evermore effectively and efficiently in their classrooms. As one of means of realization of this goal, we have proposed a componentware methodology, and have developed fifteen components and three application programs for English as a Foreign Language. We have continued researching componentware methodologies, and have now created a wide variety of new components, and have categorized these components into two main groups: basic components and high-level components. Basic components allow teachers to develop complicated CALL applications with a few simple programming statements. High-level components are, for example, independent applications not requiring any additional coding tasks. We have also developed new application software for college students using these new components. This software enables vocabulary study to be further integrated into English for Academic Purposes (EAP) reading classes, encouraging accelerated comprehension of the target academic language by the student. Following a pilot study of this software, we found that the user interface of the software could cause some confusion to computer beginner students. Therefore, we are currently improving this interface. We are going to continue this research based componentware project, so that teachers are better able to produce their own educational applications for their classrooms as easily as they might produce educational materials using a word processor.

这项研究涉及的方法使教师能够更容易、更迅速地制作自己的基于计算机的教育材料，以便在课堂上更有效、更高效地利用计算机。作为实现这一目标的手段之一，我们提出了一种构件方法，并开发了15个构件和3个应用程序。我们继续研究组件方法，现在已经创建了各种各样的新组件，并将这些组件分为两大类：基本组件和高级组件。基本组件允许教师用一些简单的编程语句开发复杂的CALL应用程序。例如，高级组件是独立的应用程序，不需要任何额外的编码任务。我们还利用这些新组件为大学生开发了新的应用软件。该软件使词汇学习进一步融入学术英语（EAP）阅读课程，鼓励学生加速理解目标学术语言。在对该软件进行初步研究后，我们发现该软件的用户界面可能会给计算机初学者带来一些困惑。因此，我们目前正在改进这个接口。我们将继续这个基于组件项目的研究，这样教师们就能更好地为他们的教室制作他们自己的教育应用程序，就像他们使用文字处理器制作教育材料一样容易。
