高校英语教师教育者教学学术能力具有独特的构成要素、层次结构和特征。本文采用文献法、访谈法、德尔菲法和验证性因素分析法对其进行探究。研究发现,高校英语教师教育者的教学学术能力要素由4个一级指标、12个二级指标和27个三级指标组成,其中,4个一级指标分别为:教学学术观念确立能力、教学学术知识运用能力、英语教学学术发展能力和英语教学学术影响能力。这些能力要素的特征主要包括学科性、示范性、融合性、互动性和实践性等。不同层级的能力要素彼此差异但又相互关联、相辅相成,整体呈现出由基阶向高阶发展的金字塔结构,该结构具有层次性、区分性等特征。

The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Competence of university English teacher educators has its unique constituent elements, hierarchical structure and characteristics. By means of the Literature Research Method, the Interviewing Method, the Delphi Method and the Confirmatory Factor Analysis, the paper makes an exploration and discovers that their SoTL Competence is composed of 4 first-level indicators, 12 second-level indicators and 27 third-level indicators. The 4 first-level indicators include the ability to establish SoTL concepts, the ability to apply SoTL knowledge, the ability to develop English SoTL and the influencing ability of English SoTL. Disciplinarity, demonstration, integration, interaction and practice are their main characteristics. These ability elements of different levels are different from each other, but they are interrelated and complement each other. As a whole, they develop from basic level to high level and show a pyramid structure, which possesses the features of hierarchy and discrimination.
