ملخص المقالة :
تفکر انتقادی، به عنوان یکی از بهترین مهارت‌هایی که معلمان از آن بهره می‌جویند فواید زیادی برای زبان‌آموزان در افزایش انگیزه‌ی آنها می‌تواند داشته باشد. در این تحقیق سعی شده است که تأثیر تدریس مهارت‌های تفکر انتقادی بر انگیزه زبان آموزان سطح پیشرفته ایرانی مورد بررسی قرار گیرد. این تحقیق در مرکز آموزش زبان سیمین در تبریز انجام شده بود. از میان 60 نفر زبان‌آموز ابتدایی، 42 نفر براساس نتایج تست مهارتی تافل انتخاب شده بودند. سپس، زبان‌آموزان انتخاب شده به طور تصادفی به یک گروه تجربی و یک گروه کنترل و هر گروه به 21 زبان‌آموز تقسیم شدند. یک پرسشنامه انگیزه، برگرفته از سلیمی(2000)، شامل 36 آیتم در مقیاس لیکرت 5 گزینه‌ای در ابتدای این تحقیق به دانش‌آموزان در هر دو گروه تجربی و کنترل به منظور ارزیابی انگیزه دانش‌آموزان داه شد. متعاقباً، پرسشنامه ارزیابی تفکر انتقادی “Watson and Glaser”(1980) شامل 80 آیتم در 5 زیر مجموعه، نشان دهنده زیرمجموعه مهارت‌های تفکر انتقادی، به 21 دانش‌آموز در گروه تجربی داده شد. زیر مجموعه مهارت‌های تفکر انتقادی شامل مهارت‌هایی همچون استنتاج، شناسایی فرضیه‌ها، استنباط، تفسیر، و ارزیابی استدلال‌ها بود. آموزش تفکر انتقادی به مدت 10 جلسه دوبار در هفته برای دانش‌آموزان پیشرفته طول کشید که در هر جلسه، 20 دقیقه به آموزش اختصاص داده شد بود. آموزش سنتی در گروه کنترل اجرا شد. تحلیل نمرات انگیزه، بدست آمده از طریق آزمون تی- تست مستقل در انتهای آموزش، نشان داد که تدریس مهارت‌های تفکر انتقادی تأثیر معنی‌داری در بالا بردن انگیزه شرکت‌کنندگان داشت. نتایج بدست آمده می‌تواند پیامدهایی برای معلمان داشته باشد. از طریق به کار بردن مهارت‌های تفکر انتقادی در کلاس‌هایشان، معلمان می توانند به بالا بردن انگیزه دانش آموزان خود کمک کرده و یادگیری آنها را بهبود دهند
