ThispartofmystudywasconductedduringMarch,2014-April2,2014.

2.1Problem

TheproblemIhaveinmyteachingisthatmostofthestudentsdonotlikedoingthewritingpracticeIassignedthemtodoafterclass.

Inmyteaching,theproblemidentifiedwasactuallyaseriousproblem.Ithinktherearethreemainreasonsthataccountedforstudents’reluctancetodothewritingassignmentsafterclass.

Firstly,somestudentsdonotfeelinterestedinpracticingwritingworkafterclass,Theydidnotwanttodoit.

Secondly,Theirvocabularyistoolimited.Therearetoomanygrammarerrorsintheircomposition.

Thirdly,Manystudents'

Englishwritinglevelcannotbeimproved,duetotheirlackofconfidence.

TheProblemhadbeentroublingmeforalongtimeandnowIwasdeterminedtofindasolutiontotheproblem.Inmystudy,Iusedformethodsofanalysis.

2.1.1Analysismethod

Englishisbecomingmoreandmoreimportant.Accordingly,theimportanceofEnglishwritingisbecomingobviousThoughcarefulanalysis,Iwasledtoalotofquestions:

forexample,Ifoundamajorityofmystudentsdonotlikedoingthisassignments,andIwanttoknowwhyitshouldbethecase,andwhethertheythoughtitimportantandnecessarytopracticewritinginEnglishornot?

Iftheythoughtitimportantandnecessary,theproblemwasactuallycausedbymyself,notbymystudents.ProbablythewritingtaskIassignedmystudentstodowaspoorlyorganized.

（1）Content-orientedapproach

Thisapproachplacesmoreemphasisonthecollectionofmaterials.Duringtheinstructions,theteachermainlydirectsthestudentsingettinginformationfromdifferentchannels.Thefocusofinstructionisonthepreparationstage,withthepurposetomakewritingrichincontent.Thisapproachusuallyconsistsofthefollowingthreesteps:

◆Helpthemtobuildrepertoiresofstrategiesforprewriting,drafting,andrewriting

◆Givestudentstimetowriteandrewrite

◆Letstudentsdiscoverwhattheywanttosayastheywrite
