19、e gap-filling task. 1 【听力原文】 College Study Good morning. Todays lecture is about college study. It is well accepted both in theory and in practice that academically successful college students know how to study. (1) Research suggests, however, that many students enter postsecondary institutions unpr

20、epared to meet the study demands placed on them. This lack of preparation can be traced, in part, to the “hidden curriculum“ at the secondary level. That is, study strategies are “hidden“ because teachers at all levels assume that their students already have a repertoire of study behavior when they

21、enter the classroom. We will mainly talk about the two factors related to effective studying and active learning. They are as follows: (2) First, course characteristics. The first factor that influences study at the college level is a students ability to understand the situation or context. (3) Many

22、 people describe context as the characteristics of a course, or the external factors that influence reading and studying. These external factors include the texts that are assigned and the academic tasks that are either tacitly or explicitly communicated by the professor. First, we will discuss the

23、rote of texts. Early research examining texts was mainly concerned with text structure. Currently, text research, as it is related to college study, seems to be heading in two directions. (4) First, there has been a recent emphasis on how students approach texts in a variety of domains, particularly

24、 in history and science, as well as on students beliefs about these texts. A second direction that currently is drawing interest examines lecture notes as texts, particularly how students attempt to organize and study these texts as part of test preparation. (5) The results from these studies, which

25、 ate helping to create a theory of note-taking beyond the encoding-storage perspective, strongly support the notion that college students should use generative strategies to interact with lecture notes. The second course-specific characteristic is academic tasks, the products students are asked to f

26、ormulate and the operations or thinking processes they should use to do so. (6) To be successful in their study, students must understand the characteristics and nuances of academic tasks and then adjust their strategies accordingly. Current research on academic tasks has focused on two areas. Some

27、researchers have investigated how tasks vary across domains. (7) Other studies have investigated academic tasks using case study methodology to describe the patterns of students interpretation of academic tasks, their choice of strategies, and their subsequent academic performance. (8) The second fa

28、ctor is characteristics of the learner. The important things for active learning are students prior knowledge, metacognitive abilities, motivational levels, and interest in what they are reading or studying. (9) Research has examined the role of prior knowledge in comprehension and learning into two

29、 periods: the first generation of knowledge, which lays the groundwork, and the second generation of knowledge, which examines knowledge as it relates to social and cultural contexts. (10) Moreover, interest is key in determining how students process information, and that interesting information see

30、ms to be processed differently from uninteresting information. To sum up, we mainly discussed the research factors related to study at the college level: course characteristics and learner characteristics.
