Abstract
This research study examined the effects of contemporary English as a Foreign language (EFL) teaching on student’s attitudes towards how they’re being taught pronunciation. The research included 145 high school learners from grammar school in Županja, Croatia. The participants were first recorded reading a small text which contained selected phonemes and lexical units, and were then given a questionnaire to fill out. The questionnaire included questions about their age, gender, final grade from last year, the age at which they started learning English, as well as questions concerning their attitudes towards EFL classes and the main source for their knowledge of pronunciation. The reading was later graded for pronunciation accuracy. The questionnaire showed that the majority of participants felt that they learned more about correct pronunciation from incidental learning, while the results of the test showed that there was no statistical difference in accuracy between participants who felt that they learned more from EFL classes and those that felt they learned more from incidental learning. Also, no significant correlation was found between the number of years they have been studying English and their accuracy scores.
Abstract (croatian)
Ovo istraživanje ispitalo je utjecaj nastave engleskog jezika na stavove koje učenici imaju prema načinu poučavanja izgovora. Istraživanje je uključivalo 145 učenika opće gimnazije u Županji. Učenike se prvo snimalo dok su čitali kraći tekst koji je sadržavao izabrane foneme i leksičke jedinice te su popunjavali upitnik koji je sadržavao pitanja vezana za dob, spol, prijašnju konačnu ocjenu iz engleskog, dob kada su počeli učiti engleski. Osim toga ispitivao se njihov stav prema nastavi engleskog jezika i što misle da je bio glavni izvor njihovog znanja izgovora engleskog jezika. Čitanje se kasnije ocjenjivalo s obziram na točnost izgovora. Upitnik je pokazao da većina učenika misli da su više naučili iz slučajnog učenja. Rezultati ispitivanja su pokazali da ne postoji statistička razlika u točnosti između učenika u dvije skupine, također nije pronađena značajna korelacije između godina provedenih učeći engleski i rezultata točnosti izgovora.
