摘要: 学习投入是预测学习效果的关键指标,然而,针对项目式学习(PBL)模式对大学英语学习者多维度投入影响的实证研究仍相对匮乏。本研究历时九周,以武汉市某高校142名非英语专业一年级学生为研究对象,采用问卷前后测设计,数据通过SPSS 27.0进行描述性统计、配对样本t检验及相关与回归分析。探讨了PBL模式下学习者行为、情感、认知与能动投入的特征及其影响因素。结果显示,PBL显著提升了学生的行为、情感和认知投入,而能动投入未见明显变化。进一步分析表明,协作性和自主性等特征对学习投入有显著正向影响。研究结论表明,PBL在促进学生多维度学习投入方面成效显著,教师应在项目设计、反馈支持和小组协作中强化学习者的自主性与责任感,从而实现学习投入的全面提升。本研究为优化大学英语课堂中PBL的教学实践提供了实证依据和启示。
Abstract: Student engagement is essential for improving academic performance and achievement; however, empirical research on the multidimensional impact of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in foreign language education remains limited. This study investigated 142 first-year non-English majors at a university in Wuhan over a nine-week period. A pretest-posttest questionnaire design was adopted, and the data were analyzed with SPSS 27.0 using descriptive statistics, paired-sample t-tests, correlation, and regression analyses. The study examined the effects of PBL on behavioral, emotional, cognitive, and agentic engagement, as well as the factors influencing these dimensions. Results revealed that PBL significantly enhanced behavioral, emotional, and cognitive engagement, while no significant improvement was observed in agentic engagement. Further analysis indicated that collaboration and learner autonomy were strong positive predictors of student engagement. The findings suggest that PBL is effective in promoting multidimensional engagement in college English classrooms. Pedagogical implications highlight the importance of designing projects that strengthen autonomy, provide timely feedback, and cultivate responsibility in group collaboration, thereby enabling more comprehensive and sustainable student engagement. This study provides empirical evidence and practical insights for optimizing the implementation of PBL in college English environment.
