Chapter One Introduction
1.1 Research Background
With the development of English language teaching, more and more teacherspaid attention to communicative language teaching and made efforts to encourageEnglish classroom interaction. It is believed that English teaching process is acommunicative process, in which both teachers and students should involvethemselves in classroom activities and exchange information. However, most ofChinese college students are in the habit of keeping silent in English classroom.Their silence discourages the teachers and hampers the effective communicationbetween the teachers and the students. Besides, it restricts the development ofstudents’ oral English and communicative competence. Consequently, students’classroom silence becomes one of the biggest headaches in English teaching, and itbegins to attract much attention from many researchers.Numerous studies have been conducted on students’ silence in classroom athome and abroad. Studies abroad are mainly about Japanese students’ classroomsilence and the reasons of students’ silence (Gimenez, 1989; Ferris and Tagg, 1996;Turner and Hiraga, 1996; Jaworski and Sachdev, 1998; Fredericksen, 2000; Petress,2001; Nakane, 2005; Harumi, 2011). Turner and Hiraga (1996) found that Japanesestudents in Britain were silent and unwilling to take part in dialectic and analyticdiscourse. They ascribed Japanese students’ silence to their culture. Jaworski andSachdev (1998) made a study on students’ classroom silence from the perspective ofdomination and power. They asserted that power relations in educational settingscould be constructed and reproduced through silence. Fredericksen (2000) claimedthat schoolgirls might become timid in a culture which seemed to have been createdfor boys. She concluded several reasons for silence in schoolgirls and othermarginalized students.
