With the increasing emphasis on English proficiency in the society, it is essential to explore how students perceive and engage in English learning. This survey aims to investigate the attitudes, habits, and challenges of middle school students in learning English.MethodologyA questionnaire survey was conducted among 500 middle school students in a selected school in China. The survey consists of questions about students' attitudes towards English learning, study habits, frequency of English practice, challenges they face in learning English, and their opinions on the importance of English. The data was collected and analyzed to provide insights into the current status of English learning among middle school students.ResultsAttitudes towards English learning: The results show that the majority of middle school students have a positive attitudetowards English learning, with 80% of the respondents enjoying learning English and 65% considering it important for their future.Study habits: Nearly 70% of the students reported that they spend at least one hour a day studying English, either through self-study or attending English classes. However, 25% of the students admitted that they only study English when required by the school.Frequency of English practice: 60% of the students practice English outside of class through reading English books, watching English movies, or chatting with English-speaking friends. However, a significant number of students (40%) rarely practice English outside of class.Challenges in learning English: The biggest challenges reported by students include difficulties in speaking and listening, lack of vocabulary, and grammar errors. Many students also mentioned the pressure from exams and competition.Importance of English: 90% of the students believe that English is essential for their future, such as for further studies, job opportunities, and travel. Some students also mentioned that English can help them communicate with people from different countries and cultures.Conclusion and RecommendationsOverall, the survey findings suggest that middle school students in China have a positive attitude towards English learning but face challenges in speaking and listening, vocabulary acquisition, and grammar. To improve English learning among students, it is recommended to provide more opportunities for students to practice speaking and listening, encourage reading English materials, and offer support for vocabulary and grammar learning. Additionally, schools can organize more English activities, such as English competitions, debates, and cultural exchanges, to enhance students' interest and motivation in learning English.In conclusion, English learning plays a crucial role in the education of middle school students, and efforts should be made to support students in overcoming challenges and developing a strong foundation in English proficiency.。
Learning StylesWhat is your learning style? This online survey is designed to find out what makes you tick. Are you the sort of person that learns best by hearing? Or are you more of a "hands-on" type of person? Which way of learning works best for you?In this test there are five different categories that identify how you learn. Each one of us uses a combination of these learning styles. Once you've taken our test you will find out how you learn best. In future this may help you to learn more effectively and easily, by choosing the learning methods that suit you. So take our test and find out!Once the page has finished loading you will see the word "Enter" appear and a yellow arrow. Please click the arrow to continue. If you are unsuccessful you may need to download a newer version of Macromedia Flash. You will find a link to this below.What Styles?There are twenty questions in this survey that help identify five different learning styles. The questions we've asked are designed to find out which learning styles best suit you. Some of us have strengths in one particular area, others may find that a combination of learning styles suits them. There has been a great deal of research done on different people's learning styles, some of which focus on dimensions such as cognitive ability, personality type and environmental preferences.This survey focuses on the following five learning systems:1) listening/reading (auditory learners)2) seeing/visualising (visual learners)3) experiencing/hands-on learning (kinaesthetic learners)4) feeling/belonging (social/emotional learners)5) reflecting/evaluating (metacognitive learners)To find out more about the advantages and disadvantages of each learning style, read on.The Auditory LearnerAdvantagesAn auditory learner likes listening. If you are an auditory learner you benefit from talks and lectures. You should also be able to absorb a lot of informationfrom radio programmes. You are very likely to have skills in sequencing and organising information and have a methodical approach to many aspects of life. You may remember information by using a checklist. You can often be considered a reliable and independent workerDisadvantagesIt's highly likely that you are unable to multitask, having to complete one job before embarking on another. There is also a possibility that you focus on small bits of information and do not obtain a holistic and broad picture of something you are working on. You may also prefer to work on your own rather than work in groups.The Visual LearnerAdvantagesA visual learner enjoys images. As a visual learner, you will be good at visualising events and imagining situations. You can use visual strategies for remembering information. You probably get considerable pleasure from learning involving visual and creative skills. You may also see the whole picture when discussing or working on a problem or task.DisadvantagesYou may need more time to complete tasks. You can be more interested in the appearance of something than its actual value - which may be a disadvantage in some situations, though not in all. You may not spend enough time on, or give enough attention to specific details.The Kinaesthetic LearnerAdvantagesThe kinaesthetic learner enjoys learning through doing. This active learning style is useful for assembling and making products. You may find it easy to demonstrate how to do something. You are likely to be able to enjoy the actual experience of learning.DisadvantagesYou may miss some instructions or information if it is presented orally. You may find it difficult to concentrate on a lengthy written task while seated. You might find it hard to pay attention to detail - especially if it is in written form.Social/Emotional LearnersAdvantagesThe social/emotional learner tends to enjoy working with others or in a team. You tend to encourage others to be involved in a task and therefore you could be seen as quite motivational. You probably enjoy working in groups and will have a prime concern for the wellbeing of colleagues and friends. You thrive on discussion and this can be very stimulating for you.DisadvantagesYou may become too dependant on assistance from others. You may find it difficult to structure a task if you are completely on your own. It is possible that you are greatly influenced by your feelings and this might affect your judgement.The Metacognitive LearnerAdvantagesThe metacognitive learner wants to gain an overview. You tend to be good at reflecting and problem solving. You should be able to use previous learning effectively, when learning new information. You may need time to consider all possibilities and this can be appreciated by others; they may seek out and trust your advice.DisadvantagesYour style of learning may be frustrating to others if you are working in a group. You may take a long time to carry out a task, and could appear to be pedantic because of this.Learning for LifeLearning styles are important not only for learning, but for helping us through our everyday lives. Learning styles relate to a person's preferences for absorbing information, for solving problems and for success in social and personal situations. They can have implications for learning, family life, marriage, leisure and work.It is important that people are aware of their learning styles so they can relate them to personality type and life preferences, leading to greaterself-knowledge; knowing more about yourself helps you gain maximum success and benefit from both leisure and work.Dimensions of Learning StyleThere are many different dimensions of learning style - including environmental preferences such as time of day, the place where the learning activity is taking place, the background sound and type of lighting. Matching your learning style with the best learning environment can make a big difference to the outcome.The way information is presented is another aspect to be considered, for example, a visual learner having to read lengthy manuals at work, without any visual support, may struggle. If, however, sketches and diagrams are used to compliment the text, the visual learner becomes a more effective learner.In the learning styles questionnaire used in 'Take the Test' we have focussed on five dimensions - each refers to a different learning style as follows:1) listening/reading - auditory learners2) seeing/visualising - visual learners3) experiencing/hands-on - kinaesthetic learners4) feeling/belonging - social/emotional learners5) reflecting/evaluating - metacognitive learners<There is no hierarchy of style, no style is better than another, as learning style is very individual. What can determine success, or otherwise, is the matching of style to the task. People who have difficulty in work and in learning may do so because of the mismatch between their work tasks and their own specific style. Change the way a task is presented and the difficulties can disappear.The Role of the TaskWhen you set out to tackle a task, the best results may be achieved by matching what has to be done with your actual preference for learning. What we have to do in our lives and our jobs is important, but it's often best to tailor the task to the learner, rather than the other way around. Tasks can usually be changed to accommodate the learner's preference. This can be done by first assessing an individual's preferred learning style and then working out the skills required to complete the task, as well as identifying the learning resources that are available.The Role of the EnvironmentThe learning environment will affect an individual's learning experience. Some of us are more sensitive to certain environmental factors than others. These factors can include lighting - some prefer bright lights, while others prefer dim lights; colour, the use of music and seating arrangements. Some learners prefer to listen to music while working, others like totally quiet surroundings.Some prefer to sit on a sofa while reading or writing, while others may be more comfortable sitting at a desk. Everyone should try to recognise his/her own environmental preferences and as far as possible incorporate them into the learning or work activity.Our survey doesn't focus on environment, but an individual usually knows what sort they prefer. Both self-awareness and the survey results will help the individual become aware of his/her learning style or combination of styles.Career ChoiceWhat are the implications of learning style on career choice? It may not be as black and white as one would think. For example, a visual learner who finds it difficult to work in a traditional library setting, may overcome these difficulties by creating a more visual appeal to both the library and the actual job. They may also have different ways of recalling information, that could be useful to other visual learners who visit the library!This shows that the phrase 'square peg in a round hole' is not always cast in stone. Most jobs can be adapted to make them suitable, to some extent, to most styles. However, it is important to carefully consider your learningstyle/personality type before choosing a particular career as you may feel it necessary to favour some occupations over others to ensure the best possible fit.Life Choices and ChancesMany events in life are out of our control. Many, however, are within one's control. Decisions we make about employment, friends, marriage partners, accommodation and location of our home are all, to a certain extent, conscious ones and within our control. Learning styles/personality type can also influence the successful outcome of these. For instance, a very visual person may become unhappy if the room they work in looks onto a brick wall, or an auditory learner may find it very hard to concentrate if there is a radio on in the background.Nothing is really 'cast in stone' - people adapt, circumstances change and environmental factors can differ. Nevertheless most people have a longstanding and deeply ingrained preference for tackling tasks and for living their lives (work and play) in a particular way. Learning styles can help us understand ourselves and put that information to good use in life and work.ReferencesDunn, R., Dunn, K. and Price, G.E.

Learning Style Survey*:Assessing Your Own Learning StylesAndrew D. Cohen, Rebecca L. Oxford, and Julie C. ChiThe Learning Style Survey is designed to assess your general approach to learning. It does not predict your behavior in every instance, but it is a clear indication of your overall style preferences. For each item, circle the response that represents your approach. Complete all items. There are eleven major activities representing twelve different aspects of your learning style. When you read the statements, try to think about what you generally do when learning. It generally takes about 30 minutes to complete the survey.

I not only attend to grammar but check for appropriate level 0 1 2 3 4of formality and politeness.A – Total:__________4. When speaking or writing, a focus on grammar would be at the 0 1 2 3 4 expense of attention to the content of the message.5. It is a challenge for me to both focus on communication in speech 0 1 2 3 4or writing while at the same time paying attention to grammaticalagreement (e.g., person, number, tense, or gender).6. When I am using lengthy sentences in a target language, I get 0 1 2 3 4distracted and neglect aspects of grammar and style.B – Total:___________Part 10: HOW I DEAL WITH RESPONSE TIME1. I react quickly in language situations. 0 1 2 3 42. I go with my instincts in the target language. 0 1 2 3 43.

I find that building metaphors in my mind helps me deal with 0 1 2 3 4language (e.g., viewing the language like a machine withcomponent parts that can be disassembled).2. I learn things through metaphors and associations with other 0 1 2 3 4things. I find stories and examples help me learn.A – Total:__________3. I take learning language literally and don’t deal in metaph ors. 0 1 2 3 44. I take things at face value, so I like language material that says 0 1 2 3 4what it means directly.B – Total:__________ Understanding your totalsOnce you have totaled your points, write the results in the blanks below. Circle the higher number ineach part (if they are close, circle both). Read about your learning styles starting below. Part 1: Part 5: Part 9:A ____ Visual A ____ Global A ____ Field-IndependentB ____ Auditory B ____ Particular B ____ Field-DependentC ____ Tactile / KinestheticPart 2: Part 6: Part 10:A ____ Extraverted A ____ Synthesizing A ____ ImpulsiveB ____ Introverted B ____ Analytic B ____ ReflectivePart 3: Part 7: Part 11:A ____ Random-Intuitive A ____ Sharpener A ____ MetaphoricB ____ Concrete-Sequential B ____ Leveler B ____ LiteralPart 4: Part 8:A ____ Closure-Oriented A ____ DeductiveB ____ Open B ____ InductiveNote:Before reading the next section, understand that this is only a general description of your learning style preferences. It does not describe you all of the time, but gives you an idea of your tendencies when you learn. Note that in some learning situations, you may have one set of style preferences and in a different situation, another set of preferences. Also, there are both advantages and disadvantages to every style preference.If on the sensory style preferences (visual, auditory, tactile/kinesthetic) you prefer two or all three of these senses (i.e., your totals for the categories are within five points or so), you are likely to be flexible enough to enjoy a wide variety of activities in the language classroom. On the other dimensions, although they appear to be in opposition, it is possible for you to have high scores on both, meaning that you do not have a preference one way or the other. Here are three examples: on the extroverted-introverted distinction, you are able to work effectively with others as well as by yourself; on the closure-open distinction, you enjoy the freedom of limited structure and can still getthe task done before the deadline without stress; on the global-particular distinction, you can handle both the gist and the details easily.Furthermore, learning style preferences change throughout your life, and you can also stretch them, so don’t feel that you are constrained to one style.Part 1: HOW I USE MY PHYSICAL SENSESIf you came out as more visual than auditory, you rely more on the sense of sight, and you learn best through visual means (books, video, charts, pictures). If you are more auditory in preference, you prefer listening and speaking activities (discussions, lectures, audio tapes, role-plays). If you have a tactile/kinesthetic style preference, you benefit from doing projects, working with objects, and moving around (games, building models, conducting experiments).Part 2: HOW I EXPOSE MYSELF TO LEARNING SITUATIONSIf you came out more extraverted on this survey, you probably enjoy a wide range of social, interactive learning tasks (games, conversations, discussions, debates, role-plays, simulations). If you came out more introverted, you probably like to do more independent work (studying or reading by yourself or learning with a computer) or enjoy working with one other person you know well.Part 3: HOW I HANDLE POSSIBILITIESIf you scored more random-intuitive, you are most likely more future-oriented, prefer what can be over what is, like to speculate about possibilities, enjoy abstract thinking, and tend to disfavor step-by-step instruction. If your style preference was more concrete-sequential, you are likely to be more present-oriented, prefer one-step-at-a-time activities, and want to know where you are going in your learning at every moment.Part 4: HOW I APPROACH TASKSIf you are more closure-oriented, you probably focus carefully on most or all learning tasks, strive to meet deadlines, plan ahead for assignments, and want explicit directions. If you are more open in your orientation, you enjoy discovery learning (in which you pick up information naturally) and prefer to relax and enjoy your learning without concern for deadlines or rules.Part 5: HOW I RECEIVE INFORMATIONIf you have a more global style preference, you enjoy getting the gist or main idea and are comfortable communicating even if you don’t know all the words or concepts. If you are more particular in preference, you focus more on details and remember specific information about a topic well.Part 6: HOW I FURTHER PROCESS INFORMATIONIf you are a synthesizing person, you can summarize material well, enjoy guessing meanings and predicting outcomes, and notice similarities quickly. If you are analytic, you can pull ideas apart and do well on logical analysis and contrast tasks, and you tend to focus on grammar rules.Part 7: HOW I COMMIT MATERIAL TO MEMORYIf you are a sharpener, you tend to notice differences and seek distinctions among items as you commit material to memory. You like to distinguish small differences and to separate memory of prior experiences from memory of current ones. You can easily retrieve the different items because you store them separately. You like to make fine distinctions among speech sounds, grammatical forms, and meaningful elements of language (words and phrases). If you are a leveler, you are likely to clump material together in order to remember it, by eliminating or reducing differences, and by focusing almost exclusively on similarities. You are likely to blur similar memories and to merge new experiences readily with previous ones. If you are concerned about accuracy and getting it all right, then the sharpener approach is perhaps preferable. If you are concerned about expediency, then being a leveler may be the key to communication. Part 8: HOW I DEAL WITH LANGUAGE RULESIf you are a more deductive learner, you like to go from the general to the specific, to apply generalizations to experience, and to start with rules and theories rather than with specific examples. If you are a more inductive learner, you like to go from specific to general and prefer to begin with examples rather than rules or theories.Part 9: HOW I DEAL WITH MULTIPLE INPUTSIf you are more field-independent in style preference, you like to separate or abstract material from within a given context, even in the presence of distractions. You may, however, have less facility dealing with information holistically. If you are morefield-dependent in preference, you tend to deal with information in a more holistic or “gestalt” way. Consequently you may have greater difficulty in separating or abstracting material from its context. You work best without distractions.Part 10: HOW I DEAL WITH RESPONSE TIMEIf you are a more impulsive learner, you react quickly in acting or speaking without thinking the situation through. For you, thought often follows action. If you are a more reflective learner, you think things through before taking action and often do not trust your gut reactions. In your case, action usually follows thought.Part 11: HOW LITERALLY I TAKE REALITYIf you are a metaphoric learner, you learn material more effectively if you conceptualizeaspects of it, such as the grammar system, in metaphorical terms. You make the material more comprehensible by developing and applying an extended metaphor to it (e.g., visualizing the grammar system of a given language as an engine that can be assembled and disassembled). If you are a literal learner, you prefer a relatively literal representation of concepts and like to work with language material more or less as it is on the surface. Tips for the learnerEach style preference offers significant strengths in learning and working. Recognize your strengths to take advantage of ways you learn best. Also, enhance your learning and working power by being aware of and developing the style areas that you do not normally use. Tasks that do not seem quite as suited to your style preferences will help you stretch beyond your ordinary comfort zone, expanding your learning and working potential.For example, if you are a highly global person, you might need to learn to pay more attention to detail in order to learn more effectively. If you are an extremelydetail-oriented person, you might be missing out on some useful global characteristics, like getting the main idea quickly. You can develop such qualities in yourself through practice. You won’t lose your basic strengths by trying something new; you will simply develop another side of yourself that is likely to be very helpful to your language learning. If you aren’t sure how to attempt new behaviors that go beyond your favored style, then ask your colleagues, friends, or teachers to give you a hand. Talk with someone who has a different style from yours and see how that person does it. Improve your learning or working situation by stretching your style!*Author’s Note: The format of the Learning Styles Survey and a number of the dimensions and items are drawn from Oxford’s Style Analysis Survey, 1995, in J. Reid (Ed.), Learning styles in the ESL/EFL classroom (pp. 208-215). Boston: Heinle & Heinle/Thomson International. Other key dimensions and some of the wording of items comes from Ehrman and Leaver’s E&L Questionnaire, 2001. For more information on this questionnaire, see the Resources Section of this Guide。
