第二語言學習的研究者常指出，音樂／歌曲能對學習者產生助益。然而音樂／歌曲與國中學生學習英語之關係的實證研究仍相當缺乏，因此本研究旨在探討英語流行歌曲教學如何促進國中學生的歌詞記憶，以及這些歌曲對虛擬語氣學習之影響。本研究包含為期一個月的實驗，一份問卷，以及研究者在課堂中的觀察記錄，研究對象為三個班共76名九年級生。研究結果顯示英語流行歌曲能夠提高學生的歌詞記憶表現，但無法讓學生自然而然地學會虛擬語氣。總結而言，此研究希望能解釋英語流行歌曲如何協助國中生的英語學習，英語教師也可藉此進一步了解在教室中使用英語流行歌曲的相關資訊。

Researchers of second language learning have often suggested that music/songs would likely facilitate learners’ language learning. However, research which has empirically documented the link between music/songs and young EFL learners’ English learning is scant. Therefore, the aim of the current study attempts to explore how English pop music can facilitate EFL junior high school students’ text recall performance and the learning of past subjunctive mood. This research involved a one-month experiment, a questionnaire, and the researcher’s classroom observation. Three classes of 76 ninth graders participated in the study. The results of this study showed that English pop music could facilitate the participants’ text recall performance but failed to facilitate their learning of the target structure. To conclude, this study may be of importance in explaining how English pop music facilitates EFL junior high school students’ English learning, as well as in providing English teachers with a better understanding of adopting English pop music in their language classrooms.
