| Abstract: | 本研究旨在分析及探討翰林版國中英語六冊教科書中文化內容的分佈情形，採取內容分析法進行資料分析，所使用的評量依據有二：趙子嘉（2011）的文化種類以及國民中小學九年一貫英語課程綱要。
本研究的結果顯示：在文化種類部份，無特定文化的內容佔多數，英美文化與中華文化比例相當，其他國家文化內容佔最少，而跨文化內容則多以圖片方式呈現。在課綱部份，以「介紹國內外風土民情」為最多，「從多元文化觀點，瞭解並尊重不同的文化及習俗」次之，而「應用基本的國際社會禮儀規範」佔最少，整體而言，課綱文化內容缺乏閱讀及聽力練習。
最後，研究者根據研究結果，對國中英文教師、教科書出版社、及未來學術研究提出數點建議。
The study aims to analyze and investigate the distributions of cultural load in the six volumes of Han-Lin English Textbooks for Junior-high-school Students. Content analysis was employed along with the two coding schemes: Chao’s (2011) Main Categories of Culture and English Curriculum Guidelines for junior-high-school students (2008).
The results indicate that, in the part of cultural categories, quite a lot of content is coded as Universality across Culture (UC), not specific to any cultures. Content of Source Culture (SC) is in proportion to that of Target Culture (TC). Least interest has been put on the presentation of International Culture (IC). Besides, most content related to Intercultural Interaction (ICI) is presented in the form of pictures. With regard to the Guidelines, a large proportion of practices engage learners in introducing their own culture and foreign cultures, followed by the activities which encourage learners to understand and respect different cultures and customs from the perspective of multi-culture. Issues concerning the application of basic international etiquette, however, receive little attention. Overall in the content related to the Guidelines, reading texts and listening scripts are underemphasized.
Finally, based on the findings, pedagogical implications for junior-high-school teachers and publishers are provided, and then suggestions for future research are also made. |
