Abstract

An increasing number of teachers are incorporating service learning (SL) to search for alternative methods in teaching and improving the quality of students’ learning. Although SL has an important impact on learning and teaching writing, research about the incorporation of SL with writing is scarce. This study attempts to investigate the impact of SL on Taiwanese students’ English academic writing in terms of the transfer of experience. A qualitative study was conducted, and multiple data were collected including teacher’s teaching logs, a survey, reflection journals (x2) and a text-based interview. Through data triangulation, the students’ transfer of experience is categorized into four types: disconnection, connection, negotiation and innovation. Further analysis and teaching implications are also discussed.

摘要

服務學習在台灣各大學開課數量與日俱增,許多老師結合服務學習與課程教學,然而結合服務學習課程的教學果效,其相關研究卻如鳳毛麟角。本研究是探討結合服務學習與英文學術寫作的課程效益,並特別著墨於在寫作時籌創過程的經驗移轉。筆者採用質性研究,透過教師日記、問卷調查、學生反思日記、面談等資料,歸納出學生在利用服務學習經驗於寫作時的可能轉換模式。
