大学英语课堂上的互动教学

在当前的外语教学中,几乎所有的老师都意识到了文化与语言密不可分的关系。每一种语言信息后都隐含着它特定的文化信息。近几年,一些语言学家、教育学家和语言教师们都对文化在第二语言教学中的作用给予了高度的重视,但一些新问题也同时摆在了教师的面前:在课堂上,怎样确定语言和文化的关系?如何在课堂教学中实现文化的积极作用?如何解决文化差异在课堂中的负面影响?如何使课堂教学更为有效地进行、真正地培养学生的语言交际能力?针对这些问题,本文提出互动教学模式,做一探讨。

INTERACTIVE ACTIVITIES IN COLLEGE ENGLISH CLASSROOMS

Almost every language teacher has recognized that language and culture are inseparably interwoven. Multi -layered cultures manifest themselves in the pattern of language in each passage, and culture has led to a shift in focus in ELT (English language teaching) classrooms. Some problems, however, challenge the teachers: How to weigh the pros and cons of language and culture in the class? Which will be the medium language, L1 or L2? Why should we realize the allocative role played by culture in ELT and FLL (foreign language learning)? How to put them into practice? This paper is intended to make an approach or a solution to these problems in college ELT classrooms.
