从认知的角度探讨高校英语语法教学

如何进行高校、尤其是英语专业语法课的语法教学？传统的翻译法已经过时；交际法似乎也不妥，我们的教材、课时数、组织形式等也不适合。我们在多年的教学实践中实施了一种认知法，收到了良好的效果。即，从学生的认知心理和认知能力出发进行语法教学，从整体、概念、意象、组块、意义、兴趣、推理等认知因素思考语法教学。本文拟提出这种方法，谈谈实施它的原则和方法，并简要阐述它可行的理论依据。

A cognitive approach and English grammar teaching in colleges

How should English Grammar be taught in classes for college students, especially in classes for English majors？ The translation methodology is already out of place. The communicative approach seems hardly applicable, and our textbooks, class hours,workshops etc, are not suitable for it. In our many years teaching practice, we applied a cognitive approach and arrived at a good result; that is,the grammar is taught by taking advantage of students＇ognitive abilities or in the way which is determined by cognitive factors such as global features, concepts, images, chunks, meanings, interest and deduction. This paper attempts to represent the approach,treating of its principles and methods,and briefly setting forth some arguments in support of it.
