混合式教学是外语教学的热点,但鲜有在混合式学术英语课程中融入课程思政的教学实践和研究。本研究从教学目标、教学内容、教学方法以及典型案例分析,全面展示了融入课程思政的学术英语写作混合式教学课程的设计,并采用定性和定量研究相结合的方法对教学效果加以验证。定量研究使用调查问卷了解学生对混合式教学的看法,并对课程前、后能力及素养的感知实施配对样本t检验,对学术论文初稿、二稿、终稿实施单因素方差检验。定性研究使用Canvas教学系统留言内容对定量研究结果做进一步说明。研究结果显示,学生对混合式教学比较认可,他们认为在文献阅读、论文写作和学术汇报能力以及综合素养方面均得到提升,论文终稿质量比过程稿亦有显著提高。该研究为混合式教学融入课程思政提供了一定的范式。

Blended teaching is a hot topic in foreign language instruction, but there is little research and practical application of incorporating ideological and political education into blended academic English courses. This study demonstrates the design of a blended academic English writing course that integrates ideological and political education in terms of teaching objectives, teaching contents, and teaching methods, with typical cases to illustrate the points. The study also combines quantitative and qualitative research methods to validate the teaching effectiveness. The quantitative research utilizes questionnaires to gain insights into students' perspectives on blended teaching. It also conducts paired sample t-test to assess students' perceptions of their abilities and overall qualities before and after the course and performs one-way ANOVA on academic paper drafts at the initial, second, and final stages. Qualitative research uses the messages left on Canvas teaching system to further explain the quantitative results. It is found that students generally approve of blended teaching. They perceived that they have not only enhanced their skills for reading literature, writing research papers, and delivering academic presentations, but also developed their overall competence. Besides, the quality of the final paper is significantly better than that of the initial drafts. This study provides a methodology for integrating ideological and political education into blended teaching.
