The Role of Public Discourse in Foreign Language Teaching Policy Making

这项研究包括对媒体话语、专家声音、网络上发布的观点和广告上的视觉图像进行批判性分析。研究结果表明，在公共话语成为“常识”的过程中，存在一个系统的流程，这最终会影响一个人对外语学习信念的形成。因此，研究人员将为学习者提出建议，以应对新的外语教学政策实施时可能出现的各种问题。

The study involves critical analyses of media discourse, voices of experts, opinions posted on network and visual images on advertisements. The results suggested that there was a systematic flow in a process in which public discourses become ‘common knowledge’ which would eventually affect the formation of one’s belief about foreign language learning. The researcher will therefore make suggestions for learners to deal with various problems which might occur when a new foreign language teaching policy has been implemented.
