پایان نامه رشته زبان انگلیسی : تاثیر ترانه بر درستی گرامر |
 |
چکیده:
تحقیق حاضر، چهار کتاب متداول آموزش زبان انگلیسی در موسسات زبان انگلیسی ایران ( انگلیش ریزالت، توتال این تحقیق به مطالعه تاثیر استفاده ازترانه برروی صحت و درستی گرامر برای زبان آموزان انگلیسی به عنوان زبان خارجه پرداخته است. این تحقیق سعی دارد، میزان بالا بردن سطح آگاهی زبان آموزان ازطریق گوش دادن به مقدارموثری از ترانه که بر روی صحت و درستی گرامری آنها تاثیر دارد، بسنجد. به منظور پاسخ به این سؤال که آیا تاثیری دارد یا خیر، از 60 زبان آموز در سطح متوسط دبیرستان سما لاهیجان که از میان 130 زبان آموز، ازطریق امتحان تعیین سطح آکسفورد انتخاب شده اند، امتحان گرفته شد. سپس به دو گروه متشکل از 30 شرکت کننده که هر کدام 15دختر و 15 پسرمیباشند، تقسیم گردیدند. شرکت کننده ها در گروه تجربی، آموزش های خاصی بروی آنها صورت گرفت. تا یادگیری نکته های گرامری از طریق گوش دادن به برخی از ترانه ها انجام پذیرد.دراین تحقیق، تمرکزبروی استفاده از ترانه در محیط آموزشی کلاس به این معنی میباشد که فراگیری به صورت ناخوداگاه انجام گردید. از طرف دیگر در گروه شاهد هیچ گونه آموزش خاصی نداشتند و زبان آموزان روش معمول ترم کلاسیشان را که همیشه انجام میدادند، دنبال کردند. دو آزمون استانداردمعتبر گرامر(آزمون قبل از شروع کلاس و آزمون پایانی کلاس) از هر دو گروه گرفته شد و برگه ها با دقت ارزیابی شدند. اطلاعات دریافتی از گروه ها از طریق آزمون زوجی (تی تست) محاسبه گردید.این نتایج نشان میدهد که میانگین دو گروه به طرز قابل توجهی متفاوت می باشد.از طرف دیگر، نتیجه آزمون پایانی کلاس در میان زبان آموزان پسر و دختر در گروه تجربی از طریق یک آزمون زوجی (تی تست) دیگر مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. هرچند که هیچ گونه تفاوت قابل توجهی بین گروه های دختر و پسر مشاهده نشد.
واژگان کلیدی: درستی گرامر، ترانه، جملات پرسشی

Abstract
The present study investigated the effect of using song on Iranian EFL learners’ grammar accuracy (WH-question). This study tried to determine the extent to which awareness raising along with efficient amount of listening to song affects the grammar accuracy of Iranian Intermediate learners. To answer this question, 60 Intermediate language learners in Sama high school in Lahidjan who were selected via administration of an OPT exam to 130 language learners. Then, they were divided into two groups of 30 participants each, in which 15 male and 15 female have been put. Participants in the experimental group were instructed on a certain plan to gasp the grammatical point by listening to some songs. In this study the focus was on using song in class environment which means grammatical points can better be extracted unconsciously. In the control group no treatment has been done and learners received a normal routine of the semester as they always did. Two validated standardized tests of grammar (pre-test and post-test)were administered to both groups, the papers were assessed carefully .The data retrieved from both groups was analyzed through calculating a t-test. The results indicated that the means of the two groups were significantly different. In another attempt the post-test result of male and female participants in experimental group have been analyzed via running of another round of a t-test, however, no significant difference has been notified between male and female participants.
Key terms: Grammar accuracy; Song; WH-question

Introduction
1.0. Introduction
Teaching a foreign language is so complex that grammar is the most difficult problems of anyone who wishes to teach it systematically. Teaching grammar has always seen one of the controversial issues in both second and foreign language teaching. As Batstone (1994) states, grammar is a greatly broad and diverse phenomenon which characterizes three interdependent dimensions: form, meaning and use. This perspective on grammar, where forms are shown in direct association with meaning, views grammar as an integral part of the language. Grammar is a device for making and expressing meaning without which, effective communication would not be possible. On Richards and Schmidt (2002) have known grammar as a description of the structure of a language and the way in which linguistic units such as words and phrases are joined together to produce sentences in a language.
There is a variety of grammar teaching techniques that make learning grammar easy to students. Some of the most useful tasks that have been proposed for practicing both grammar and
