本研究的目的旨在調查思考地圖對學生寫作的影響,包括在總成績、傳記體、故事體和書信體三種文體及內容、組織、流暢度 和基本文法等四種評分規準的影響。 本研究乃於為期34週的寫作課中進行,共有來自兩個班級的65位國小學童參與。研究方法採用混合研究設計,即準實驗設計(量化)和質性研究設計。實驗組的班級共有34位學童,控制組則有31位學童,研究者用思考地圖教導實驗組的學生寫作,而控制組使用傳統的方法寫作。資料收集則透過學生的前測、後測、問卷、訪談以及學生的作品。研究結果顯示,實驗組與控制組在外語寫作表現上,實驗組除了在書信體的基本文法有達顯著差異外,在總分、三種文體和四個評分項目上都沒有顯著差異。但實驗組的前後測在總成績以及三種不同文體的寫作上均有顯著進步。問卷調查和訪談的結果亦發現學生認為思考地圖是很好的工具,對腦力激盪和統整資料有所助益,實驗組中等程度和低成就的學生比較依賴思考地圖。研究結果也歸納出學生使用思考地圖的四種類型,本研究更進一步發現六種寫作上常見的錯誤類型。本研究針對如何使用思考地圖教導國小學生外語寫作提供了寶貴的意見。
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of using Thinking Maps on students’ writing on overall performance, three writing genres (biographic writing, narrative writing, letter writing), and four scoring criteria (content, organization, fluency, and conventions). This study was conducted during a thirty-four week writing instruction course. It consisted of 65 students from two sixth grade classes at an elementary school in Taiwan. This was a mixed method design that used a quasi-experimental design (quantitative) and a qualitative research design. One class with 34 students was assigned to the experimental group. The other class with 31 students was in the control group. The students in the experimental group were instructed how to use Thinking Maps in writing, whilst students in the control group used conventional writing method. Data were collected from the writing performance pretests, posttests, questionnaires, interviews, and writing samples. The findings indicated that the students in the experimental group did not outperform the control group significantly on overall performance, the three writing genres, content, organization, and fluency. The only significant difference between the control and the experimental groups was on conventions in letter writing. However, the findings showed that there was a significant difference between the pretest and the posttest of the experimental group on overall performance and the three writing genres. The questionnaire data and the interview data analyses also demonstrated that Thinking Maps were helpful and good tools to brainstorm or integrate ideas at the prewriting stage. The medium-achieving and the low-achieving students in the experimental group relied more on Thinking Maps. The findings also demonstrated four patterns showing how students presented Thinking Maps. Furthermore, six common error patterns were found in the students’ writing. Finally, this study provided valuable insights and suggestions about the use of Thinking Maps in teaching EFL writing to elementary students.
