Abstract :

 مطالعه حاضر تلاشی برای بررسی این موضوع بود که آیا زبان آموزان از نظر پاسخ / موفقیت در تکلیف ، انسجام / ارتباط ، منبع واژگانی ، دامنه دستوری و دقت در آزمون نوشتن در سیستم بین المللی تست زبان انگلیسی عملکرد متفاوتی دارند. علاوه بر این ، بررسی شد که آیا آشنایی رایانه ای دانشجویان در گروه های کاغذی و رایانه ای متفاوت است. برای این منظور ، از مجموع 144 داوطلب ، تعداد 108 داوطلب براساس نتایج آزمون آکسفورد در دانشگاه تهران ، ایران انتخاب شدند. برای جمع آوری داده ها ، یک نمونه نوشتن آکادمیک بازنشسته آیلتس و یک پرسشنامه آشنایی با رایانه استفاده شد. شرکت کنندگان به دو گروه مساوی تقسیم شدند. در گروه کاغذی ، برای نوشتن در حالت معمول کاغذ به دانش آموزان داده شد. در گروه حالت رایانه ، آزمون مشابهی به دانشجویان داده شد. با این حال ، از آنها خواسته شد تا آزمون را در رایانه ای که در کلاس خود برای آنها در نظر گرفته شده بود تایپ کنند. همچنین ،به کلیه شرکت کنندگان پرسشنامه آشنایی با رایانه داده شد. داده های جمع آوری شده از طریق آزمون تی تست مستقل مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفت. این یافته ها تفاوت معناداری بین حالت های کاغذی و رایانه ای در هر دو تکلیف 1 و 2 نوشتن نشان داد. علاوه بر این ، تحلیل پرسشنامه تأثیر آشنایی رایانه ای داوطلبان بر عملکرد نوشتن آنها را نشان داد.
