ABSTRACT

Being a most frequent occurrence in English classroom, teachers’ questioning plays a significant role in classroom teaching and learning. The present study aims to do a research on teachers’ questioning in Chinese EFL classroom interaction to find out the types of questions Chinese EFL teachers adopt in teaching and the effects of the questions in arousing teacher-student interaction. The study involves a natural English major class including 29 sophomores and an English teacher in university in South Central China as its subjects. The author has observed the class for two class hours, audio-taping the whole lesson and noting down all the interaction in class. After transcribing the record, the author picks out all the questions the teacher asked in the class and counts the total number of questions in each phase of class, classifies them into the seven categories and calculates the number and proportion of each type of question asked in the class. The thesis reports that the teacher has asked more questions in the part of new lesson and in the seven categories of question type, analysis questions and inference questions have aroused more interaction in the class. The study suggests that teachers designing proper and meaningful questions can arouse more interaction in the EFL class. And students should answer teachers’ questions actively to interact more and practice more in the class, and thus to improve their communicative competence.
