 如何應用Graphic organizers於教學中
 以句型為單位的教學
 以字串(lexis)為單位的教學
What are graphic organizers?
Graphic organizers are……
 visual aids added to text and other
instructional materials to
communicate the organization of the
text passage or the instructional
material (Jonassen et al.,1993)
What can graphic organizers
do?
 Learners’ attention is directed to
important information and they are
thus less likely to become trapped in
the details.
 The feature of two-dimensional
arrangement helps learners to
visualize abstract ideas and as a
result brings about perceptual
comprehension in learners.
Graphic Organizers vs. Expository
 Graphic organizers are also found to
be effective in facilitating teaching
and learning of expository texts.
Cultural Preference of
Writing Structure (of Expository)
(Kapland, 1966)
How to apply graphic
organizers in EFL teaching?
 To use graphic organizers to teach
reading texts
 Post-graphic organizer usage is
significantly more effective (Moore &
Readence, 1984).

Student’s work:
If I could make someone disappear
If I could make someone disappear, I want that person to be
the former Minister of Education, Tu Cheng-Sheng. There are
three reasons why I want him to disappear. First, he dosed off at
Legislative Yuan, and insisted that he was not sleeping; he was
just closing his eyes. Second, he picked his nose in public. It is
so disgusting. Where are his manners? Third, he put “three little
pigs” on the idiom list. What kind of idiom is that? Therefore, if I
could make someone disappear, I want that person to be Tu
Cheng-Sheng.
“If I could make someone disappear” in

reasons, if

以字串lexis為語言單位
 the Lexical Approach (Lewis, 1993)
 Lexical items are socially sanctioned
independent units; many are words, but
many consist of multi-word units.
Why lexis?
 …much native speaker language is
formulaic; it is simply that the native
speaker usually has a vastly greater
range of formulae to call upon for use
in a wider range of strategic domains
(McCarthy, 1991).
 Prefabricated chunks;
 formulaic speech;
 formulaic expressions
 These units can be analyzed; but
modern research suggests that speech
may be processed more rapidly if
the units are perceived as single,
unanalyzed wholes.
Different kinds of lexical items
 Words—the individual words
 Ploywords—found in dictionaries;
ex. of course, by the way, look up to...
 Collocations—the way individual words cooccur with others;
ex. prices fell; incomes rose; take medicine
 Institutionalised expressions—pragmatic
in character; allow language user to manage
aspects of the interaction
Three types of
institutionalized expressions
 Short, hardly grammaticalised
utterances: Not yet. Certainly not. Just a
moment, please.
 Sentence heads or frames to serve a
certain pragmatic purpose: Sorry to
interrupt, but can I just say…; That’s all
very well, but…;
 Full sentences with readily identifiable
pragmatic meaning: You can’t miss it. It’s
all yours. Keep the change. Rise and shine.

I’ll get it.
I’ll give you a ring.
I’ll drop you a line.
I’ll see what I can do.
Take my word for it.
You’ll never get away from it.
That’ll do.
I see what you mean.
We’ll see.
It’s funny you should say that. It reminds me of…
Benefits
 Institutionalised expressions will be a help
to any non-native learner.
 A repertoire of such phrases is an important
part of fluency for the intermediate and
more advanced learner.
 Immediate practical utility for elementary
and lower intermediate learners (like
tourist-style phrase books).
The fact is…
 A language contains, in addition to
productive rules, a phrase book with
grammatical notes.
 Much native speaker language is
formulaic; the native speaker has a
vast range of formulae.
Implications for EFL teaching
 Raise students’ awareness of lexis.
 Teach not only grammar rules, but
lexis, including words, polywords,
collocations, and institutionalised
expressions.
 Take 統測 for example.
結語
 When teaching reading, teach both
the content and the structure.
 When teaching sentences, focus on
sentence patterns (i.e.,
collocations).
 When teaching vocabulary, use lexis
as the basis.
 Do both bottom-up and top-down
teaching.
