هدف از انجام این تحقیق بررسی و ارزیابی دوره کارشناسی ارشد رشته مترجمی زبان انگلیسی می باشد. با وجود اینکه حدودا هشت سال از تشکیل این دوره می گذرد اما از ابتدای تشکیل هیچ نوع ارزیابی از این رشته انجام نشده است. به منظور انجام ارزشیابی حاضر، بعد از مطالعه بیش از 30 مدل ارزشیابی ابتدا مدل 2002) CIPP (Stufflebeam، که برای این تحقیق مناسبتر از بقیه مدلها بود انتخاب شد و سوالات تحقیق بر اساس چهار قسمت این مدل (Context، Input، Process، and Product) به شرح زیر نوشته شدند: 1- مهمترین مهارتهای زبانی(عمومی- آکادمیک) دانشجویان دوره کارشناسی ارشد رشته مترجمی زبان انگلیسی از نظر مدیران گروه، استادان و خود دانشجویان کدامند؟ 2- آیا برنامه آموزشی این دوره بر مبنای اهداف مصوبه شورای عالی برنامه ریزی وزارت علوم و آموزش عالی طرح ریزی و اجرا شده است ؟ 3- آیا در مورد ارزیابی دانش ومیزان تسلط دانشجویان روی مهارتهای زبانی، بین نظر استادان و دانشجویان هماهنگی وجود دارد؟ 4- به عنوان شاخص ونشان دهنده میزان موفقیت یا عدم موفقیت این دوره، آیا بین دانش و مهارتهایی که دانشجویان در این دوره کسب می نمایند و میزان رضایت آنان رابطه ای وجود دارد؟ اولین گام درجهت انجام این تحقیق نیاز سنجی جامعه ای بود که نیازها و اهداف دانشجویان، همچنین مشکلات زبانی و ترجمه ای آنها را در این دوره نشان دهند. این نیاز سنجی از طریق مشاهده کلاسی، انجام مصاحبه، تهیه و توزیع پرسشنامه ها در کلیه واحدهای دانشگاهی (سراسری و آزاد) که این رشته در آنها تدریس می شود (بغیر از واحد چابهار) انجام گرفت. بطور کلی اطلاعات بدست آمده حا کی از آن است که هدف اول این دوره آموزشی یعنی «تربیت مترجمان زبده در زمینه های علوم انسانی، علوم اجتماعی وغیره» که مورد نیاز جامعه می باشد چنا نکه باید وشاید تحقق پیدا نکرده است. بنظر می رسد که رفع این نا رسا یی نیاز به بررسی و انجام اقدامات اصلاحی نیاز دارد که امید می رود با راهنمایی و نظریات استادان و مسئولین امر به مرحله اجرا گذاشته شود.

Condemning a laissez faire approach to English Language Teaching (ELT), English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teacher trainers unanimously agree that the building blocks of teachers’ teaching framework are profoundly influenced by conducting research. Focusing on quantitative research, this study endeavored to scrutinize the impact of the Critical Appraisal of Published Research (CAPR) in undergraduate teacher training programs on EFL teachers’ Data Analysis Knowledge (DAK). To this objective, 30 male and female EFL teachers were non-randomly selected and randomly assigned to two groups. In two Research classes, the experimental group received the CAPR whereas the control group received traditional teacher-centered instruction with summative assessment. The DAK section of the Quantitative Research Literacy (QRL) questionnaire was employed as the pretest and posttest. Subsequent to corroborating participants’ pre-treatment homogeneity in terms of DAK, analyzing the post-treatment data through running an independent-samples t-test, eta squared = .338 (representing a large effect size), indicated the existence of a significant difference in the post-treatment DAK scores between the two groups. The obtained results confirmed that the CAPR has a significantly better impact on EFL teachers’ DAK which is a key area of QRL. Therefore, it seems accurate to argue that ELT teacher training programs should endeavor to involve the students in a mentally engaging process, e.g. CAPR, where the content of the course is put into practice by the students, something which is required for balancing the concrete and the abstract.

Simultaneous with the emergence of numerous new concerns and techniques in carrying out research in English language teaching (ELT) contexts, conducting ELT research has turned into a multi-dimensional process, and ELT researchers seem to require advanced research skills in order to address different pedagogical issues. Focusing on quantitative research, the present study was undertaken to develop and validate a quantitative research literacy (QRL) instrument for English as a foreign language (EFL) teacher training context. To this objective, a four-component model of QRL, encompassing developing research topic knowledge, research design knowledge, procedural knowledge, and data analysis knowledge was developed based on experts’ opinion and an extensive review of the related literature. Testing of the tentative model through exploratory and confirmatory data analyses on a sample of 1180 EFL teachers across three education levels indicated that a 4-factor model of QRL with 9 sub-factors and 50 items could best explain QRL.

This descriptive quantitative study scrutinized the relationship between impulsive and reflective EFL learners’ oral communication strategies (OCS) and willingness to communicate (WTC). To this end, 114 impulsive and reflective graduate-level EFL learners (67% female; 33% male), within the age range of 23 to 40, were selected employing convenience sampling. The data collection instruments were the impulsiveness sub-scale of Eysenck’s impulsivity inventory (Eysenck & Eysenck, 1978), the OCS inventory (Nakatani, 2006), and the WTC scale (McCroskey, 1992). Subsequent to checking and verifying the pertinent assumptions, using Pearson’s correlation coefficient indicated that there existed a positive yet insignificant correlation between impulsive EFL learners’ OCS and their WTC; however, a positive and significant correlation between reflective EFL learners’ OCS and their WTC was observed. In addition, the results of linear regression analyses and comparing the β values revealed that impulsive EFL learners’ OCS cannot significantly predict their WTC whereas reflective EFL learners’ OCS can significantly predict their WTC. In general, the obtained results confirmed that OCS can positively affect EFL learners’ WTC, although attention should be paid to learners’ impulsivity o reflectivity prior to planning the pedagogical practice.

This quantitative study examined the relationship between EFL learners’ choice of vocabulary learning strategies (CVLS), reading strategies (RS), and reading anxiety (RA). To this end, 123 Iranian EFL learners (81 female; 42 male) within the age range of 24 to 39 were selected by employing convenience sampling. The data collection instruments were the Foreign Language Reading Anxiety Scale (Saito et al., 1999), the Survey of Reading Strategies (Mokhtari & Sheorey, 2002), and the Vocabulary Learning Strategies Questionnaire (Schmitt, 1997). Subsequent to checking and verifying the pertinent assumptions, using Pearson’s correlation coefficient indicated that there was a significant and negative correlation between CVLS and RA and a significant and positive correlation between CVLS and RS; in addition, a significant and negative correlation between RS and RA was observed. Furthermore, the results of multiple regression analysis and comparing the β values revealed that RS makes the strongest statistically significant unique contribution to suppressing reading anxiety, and CVLS turned out to be the second significant preventer of RA. In general, the obtained results confirmed that both RS and CVLS can significantly prevent EFL learners’ RA; therefore, it is fairly reasonable to consider RS and CVLS while planning the pedagogical practice.
