초록

This study presents how grammar instruction was implemented in College English classes. Recently, students’ fluency in English has been much improved owing to focus-on-meaning instruction, but their accuracy is not good enough. To achieve English proficiency, it is necessary to teach students grammar based on focus-on-form instruction. Nevertheless, implicit grammar instruction is not really appropriate in EFL classroom settings because its aim is always to minimize any interruption to the communication skills. Since EFL learners have few chances to be exposed to an English-speaking environment outside the English classroom, it is recommended that EFL teachers use the explicit grammar instruction. In order to support this suggestion, an experiment is devised to test whether students can make progress in acquiring English grammar when they are taught it explicitly. The results of this study indicates that the students in the experimental group improved their knowledge of English grammar in a statistically meaningful way through explicit grammar instruction.

Abstract

This study presents how grammar instruction was implemented in College English classes. Recently, students’ fluency in English has been much improved owing to focus-on-meaning instruction, but their accuracy is not good enough. To achieve English proficiency, it is necessary to teach students grammar based on focus-on-form instruction. Nevertheless, implicit grammar instruction is not really appropriate in EFL classroom settings because its aim is always to minimize any interruption to the communication skills. Since EFL learners have few chances to be exposed to an English-speaking environment outside the English classroom, it is recommended that EFL teachers use the explicit grammar instruction. In order to support this suggestion, an experiment is devised to test whether students can make progress in acquiring English grammar when they are taught it explicitly. The results of this study indicates that the students in the experimental group improved their knowledge of English grammar in a statistically meaningful way through explicit grammar instruction.
