用 Gemini GEM快速生成英語考卷
出紙本測驗是形成性評量的重要方式之一，但對英語老師而言，設計考題往往需要花費大量時間與心力。隨著新北市提供教師使用 Google AI Pro，我們可以開始運用 Gemini 的 Gem 機器人模型，快速生成符合教學需求的題目。我自己的做法是先使用 ChatGPT 說明想要的題型與內容，請它生成對應的 prompt，再貼到 Gemini 的 Gem 中使用。整體流程我會分成兩個模組：一個是「文字版」，方便我進行修改與調整；另一個是「圖片版」，可以直接透過平板派發任務給學生使用，大幅提升教學效率與彈性。
以學習理論為基礎之英語題型設計
一、將單字置於有意義的句子中，強化情境連結與理解
在英語詞彙學習中，將單字放入有意義的句子與情境中，有助於學生理解詞彙的實際用法，而非僅停留於孤立記憶。根據 Michael Lewis 所提出的詞彙教學觀點（Lexical Approach），語言學習應重視詞彙在語境中的運用，而非單字的孤立記憶（Lewis, 1993）。此外，語境化學習（contextualized learning）亦被證實能幫助學習者建立語意連結，提升長期記憶效果。因此，透過句子與生活情境結合的單字練習，能使學生更容易理解並應用所學詞彙。
二、開放式畫圖與回答任務：促進意義建構與主動表達
學習單中加入開放式畫圖與回答任務，符合 Lev Vygotsky 社會文化理論中所強調的「意義建構」觀點。學生透過圖像補充與語言輸出，將個人經驗轉化為語言表達，有助於深化學習理解（Vygotsky, 1978）。同時，此類任務亦呼應以學生為中心的學習取向，使學生從被動作答轉向主動創作與表達，提升其參與度與學習動機。
三、閱讀理解與選擇題：培養語言理解與資訊處理能力
在學習單中加入短篇閱讀與選擇題，有助於培養學生的語言理解與資訊處理能力。根據 David Rumelhart 的基模理論（Schema Theory），閱讀理解是讀者將新資訊與既有知識結構進行連結與整合的歷程（Rumelhart, 1980）。透過主題相關的短文，學生能活化既有經驗，並在理解文本的過程中建構意義；而選擇題則可協助教師檢核學生的理解程度，亦提供學生自我檢視的機會。此外，適當難度的閱讀任務亦能促進學生在理解輸入（comprehensible input）中的語言習得，提升整體閱讀能力。
