抄録

電子メールによってグルグル英語発音指導を行い、質問紙に対する回答から、対面グルグルと比べた場合の強みと弱点を探った。文字ベースの返信という限界はあるものの、普段は授業中に対面でグルグルしている教師/学生の間であるならば、音声もフィードバックも後に残ることの利点は大きいことが判明した。本論文では実証データを示す紙幅がないが、肝心の音声の質も確かに向上した。教室での指導と相補的に用いられるメールグルグルは、学生の発音スキル改善に大きな効果が期待できることが明らかになった。

The guru-guru method refers to a technique of one-on-one pronunciation practice/evaluation intended for a class of 10 to 30 students. The students stand forming a circle and the instructor walks around (hence its name, which means "round and round"), checking and correcting their pronunciation. The students try saying one of the designated sentences or items when the teacher comes around. When a student gets one item correct, she can proceed to the next one in her next turn; when she gets a fail, she has to keep attempting the same item in her subsequent turns. This activity ends when the time limit (typically 20-30 minutes) expires or at least one student passes the last item. This arrangement necessitates one guru-guru session's ending without most of the students reaching the last item. To compensate for this limitation, an e-mail-mediated version of guru-guru, in which audio-recordings are evaluated outside of class, was attempted. Forty English-major undergraduate students were instructed to record their reading of a 42-word sentence and e-mail the audio file as an attachment to the instructor, who would immediately text back his feedback. The students were instructed to keep submitting new recordings until they got a pass mark. During a six-day period, the 40 students submitted a total of 321 files. Within the deadline, 29 students (72.5%) received a pass mark. The post-assignment survey revealed both strengths and weaknesses of this e-mail-mediated guru-guru activity relative to its standard in-class counterpart.
