Abstract

U ovom diplomskom radu govori se o usvajanju stranoga jezika kroz pokret, odnosno tjelesnu aktivnost te je naglasak na metodi poučavanja pokretom (Total Physical Response). Cilj rada bio je utvrditi upoznatost nastavnika i studenata engleskoga jezika s Total Physical Response (TPR) metodom te njihovu motivaciju za korištenje navedene metode u vlastitoj nastavi. U istraživanju, koje je provedeno pomoću online upitnika, sudjelovalo je 174 studenata i nastavnika engleskoga jezika u osnovnim školama na području Republike Hrvatske. S obzirom na dobivene rezultate može se zaključiti kako je većina ispitanika dobro upoznata s TPR metodom, često ju koriste u nastavi te su zadovoljni ishodima nakon poučavanja nastavnih sadržaja tom metodom. Radi utvrđivanja faktorske strukture upitnika o zadovoljstvu ispitanika metodom poučavanja pokretom, provedena je faktorska analiza na česticama upitnika. Ekstrahirana su dva faktora: faktor pozitivnih stavova i faktor negativnih stavova. Navedeni su i stavovi ispitanika o razlozima korištenja ove metode u nastavi kao što su brže i lakše pamćenje nastavnih sadržaja, dinamičnost, visoka motiviranost učenika, pozitivan utjecaj na razvoj učenika te zadovoljavanje njihove potrebe za kretanjem i igrom. S druge strane, ispitanici su naveli i neki nedostatke metode kao što su problem s disciplinom i gubitak kontrole, nedostatak prostora u učionici, ograničenost usvajanja određenih nastavnih sadržaja te manja prikladnost za starije učenike.

Abstract (english)

This paper discusses the acquisition of a foreign language through movement or physical activity, and the emphasis is on the Total Physical Response (TPR) method. The aim of the thesis was to determine the familiarity of pre-service and in-service English language teachers with the Total Physical Response method and their motivation to use this method in their own teaching. The research was conducted in the form of an online questionnaire and the participants were 174 university students and teachers of English in primary schools in the Republic of Croatia. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that most participants are familiar with the TPR method, they use it frequently in teaching, and are satisfied with the learning outcomes after teaching with this method. In order to determine the factor structure of the questionnaire on the satisfaction of participants with the TPR method, a factor analysis was performed on the items of the questionnaire. Two factors were extracted: factor of positive attitudes and factor of negative attitudes. Furthermore, the participants’ reasons for using this method in teaching are stated, such as faster and easier memorization of curriculum content, dynamic lessons, high motivation of students, a positive impact on students' development and meeting their need for movement and play. On the other hand, the participants also mentioned some disadvantages of the method, such as the problem with discipline and loss of control, lack of space in the classroom, limited acquisition of certain curriculum contents and less suitability for older students.
