چکیده

به نظر می رسد بیشتر دبیران زبان خارجه در ایران ازمفاهیم جدید الگوی انگلیسی به عنوان زبان بین المللی آگاهی نداشته و فاقد استباط مناسبی در این زمینه هستند. در این تحقیق ابتدا استنباط شرکت کنندگان که از میان دبیران زبان خارجه استان اصفهان بودند نسبت به این مفاهیم از طریق پرسشنامه ای معتبر و پایا که توسط محقق ایجاد شده بود مورد سنجش قرار گرفته و همچنین اطلاعات جمعیت‌شناختی آنها جمع آوری شد. این داده ها به صورت آماری تجزیه و تحلیل شدند تا ببینیم شرکت کنندگان چه استنباطی از مفاهیم الگوی انگلیسی به عنوان زبان بین المللی دارند. با توجه به اینکه کارگاههای آموزشی می توانند باعث پیشرفت حرفه ای دبیران زبان خارجه گردد، به علت همگیری ویروس کرونا، از گارگاه آموزشی مجازی در محیط اسکای روم به شکل وبینار به جای کارگاه حضوری در این راستا استفاده شد. برای پی بردن به اثربخشی این کارگاه، استنباط دبیران از مفاهیم الگوی انگلیسی پس از شرکت در کارگاه نیز اندازه گیری شد. این تحلیل آماری نشان داد که استنباط دبیران زبان خارجه از الگوی انگلیسی به عنوان زبان بین المللی پس از شرکت در کارگاه آموزشی مجازی به طور معنا داری بهتر شده بود. در ضمن، مصاحبه های انجام شده با تعدادی از دبیران زبان خارجه پس از شرکت در کارگاه مؤید ایجاد آگاهی و بهبود استنباط دبیران از الگوی انگلیسی به عنوان زبان بین المللی و همچنین تغییر در رویه تدریس زبان انگلیسی آنها بود.
