【摘要】 随着全球化经济的发展,就业市场对高职学生的商务英语写作的能力越来越重视,高职商务英语写作也成为高职电子商务专业学生必备的核心技能之一。然而在高职学生商务英语写作教学的实际过程中,学生在学习中所呈现出的对商务英语体裁的模糊认识、认为写作属于一次性任务的情况,是非常常见的。综合前人的研究成果,我们预设过程体裁法可以显著的改善这一现状,主要有以下三个研究问题:1.相比于传统的结果法教学,过程体裁法是否能在教学中更有效提高学生商务英语写作成绩?2.过程体裁法的运用在哪些方面对学生的商务英语写作态度产生积极的影响?3.过程体裁法在高职商务英语写作课中的具体实施流程。本研究尝试通过实验法在商务英语信函写作教学中引入过程体裁法。本研究于2015-2016学年的第一学期(10个教学周,每周2课时)进行对比性教学实验。鉴于对商务信函写作的兴趣性与相关度,选取的实验对象为安徽科技贸易学校大专二年级的70名电商专业学生,其中35人来自实验班,35人来自控制班。在实验班运用过程体裁法开展商务英语信函写作教学,而在控制班使用结果法教学。采用过程体裁法的具体教学步骤为:范文分析、集体仿写、独立写作、编辑修订。每种商务信函体裁展示3篇范文,对其语旨、语域、语式、语步进行分析,学生在掌握某种特定体裁特定的篇章结构的同时,对商务信函的语言和形式都有了更进一步的认识,同时通过语步的分析,学生能够更好的理清范文具体的社交目的并将其步骤化,这种分析为集体仿写和独立写作奠定了良好的基础。学生的初稿在经过同伴互评后上交给教师,教师对学生习作和同伴评价给予及时回馈评价,学生在收到回馈后接着进行修改并最终定稿。实验时间为10个写作教学周,最终以一篇命题作文检测两个班级的写作水平的变化,发现实验班的写作水平明显优于控制班,具体表现在对商务信函写作的格式正确、语言规范、要素的完整性等方面。实验还进行了前测后测、问卷调查、学生访谈等方法来记录观察学生写作心理态度的变化,同时适时调整实验进程和操作,实验的整体情况比较平稳,没有出现失控状况。最终我们得出实验结论:1.相较于结果法,过程体裁法对于学习者提高商务英语写作水平有着更显著的成效;2.同时过程体裁法教学提高了学生参与课堂的积极性,增强了他们学习商务英语信函写作的信心,对学生的学习态度有着积极的影响。3.采用过程体裁法的实施流程为:范文分析、集体仿写、独立写作、编辑修订。本研究对于商务英语写作教学有着非常重要的意义,在接下来的商务英语教学中,教师可以运用过程体裁法来有效提升学生商务信函写作的能力,使得他们轻松应对今后商务活动中的各种写作任务,也使得高职商务英语写作的课堂更高效实用。更多还原
