Tóm tắt

Tóm tắt: Kỹ năng viết luôn là kỹ năng khó cho sinh viên học tiếng Anh như một ngoại ngữ ở bậc đại học. Nghiên cứu cho thấy phần lớn sinh viên nhập học hàng năm có trình độ tiếng Anh bậc sơ cấp, kỹ năng viết kém càng làm sinh viên thiếu tự tin trong việc học tiếng Anh. Theo các nghiên cứu về giảng dạy ngoại ngữ, phương pháp dạy - học theo nhiệm vụ (Task-based language teaching-TBLT) là một phương pháp hiệu quả cho việc dạy các kỹ năng giao tiếp và có được sự tham gia của người học dựa vào bài tập mô phỏng thực tế theo cách ngôn ngữ thực sự được dùng. Cụ thể, nghiên cứu này tìm hiểu chi tiết về cách giảng viên sử dụng TBLT để hỗ trợ sinh viên cải thiện việc học kỹ năng viết. Với thiết kế nghiên cứu gần thử nghiệm cho 60 sinh viên, nghiên cứu tìm hiểu ở những phương diện nào, TBLT giúp cải thiện việc học kỹ năng viết cho sinh viên không chuyên tiếng Anh tại một trường đại học ở Việt Nam. Kết quả cho thấy việc sử dụng TBLT với các bài tập nhiệm vụ giúp sinh viên nhiệt tình hơn khi học kỹ năng viết. Các ý kiến của người tham gia cũng được thảo luận để hiểu sâu hơn về nhận định tính hiệu quả của phương pháp này.
