Abstract :

هر فرآیند آموزشی و یادگیری استوار بر مجموعه ایی از سبکهای یادگیری و آموزشی است که مبین سیاستهای کلی آموزشی بوده و شناسایی آنها شرط نخستین هر گونه اصلاح در سیستم آموزشی می باشد. هدف پژوهش کیفی و .... حاضر بررسی گرایش معلمان ایرانی زبان انگلیسی نسبت به پنج سبک یادگیری متخصص، دست اندرکار رسمی، الگوی شخصی، تسهیلگر، و مشارکتی و نیز مطالعه تمایلات زبان آموزان ایرانی نسبت به سه سبک یادگیری دیداری، شنیداری، و جنبشی-حرکتی بود. داده های تحقیق با استفاده از پرسشنامه سبکهای آموزشی گرآشا (1996) و نیز پرسشنامه سبکهای یادگیری بارش (1991) به دست آمد که از نمونه 30 نفری معلمان و 300 نفری زبان آموزان به دست آمده بود. آمار توصیفی داده های تحقیق نشان داد که بیشتر زبان آموزان ایرانی به سبکهای یادگیری دیداری و جنبشی-حرکتی و اکثر معلمان به سبکهای آموزشی تسهیل گر و مدل شخصی تمایل دارند، در حالیکه سبک یادگیری شنیداری و سبک آموزشی مشارکتی کمترین فراوانی ها را نشان می داد. نتایج ضرورت توجه معلمان به سبکهای یادگیری زبان آموزان را مورد توجه قرار می دهد تا بتوانند تدریس خود را هماهنگ با تمایلات زبان آموزان تعدیل نمایند.
