英语教学材料的“真实”与“真实性”

Genuineness and Authenticity of EFL Teaching Materials

交际法教学模式视“真实”为核心,教材设计编写也尽量体现真实。事实上,教学材料的真实和学习者真实性之间是存在一定差别的。仅有教学材料的真实不一定能够让学习者感到真实可信。在英语教学材料的设计编写以及选择使用时体现真实的较佳方式是关注学习者的需求,并灵活变通以实现“真实”与“真实性”的统一。

Genuineness is seen as the core in communicative teaching model, and it is embodied in the compile of teaching materials. In fact, learner authenticity is different from genuineness of teaching materials. Genuineness of teaching materials only will not be able to guarantee the truthness or authenticity for learners. This paper analysis learning environments, individual differences, and teacher factors, and suggests that a better way in designing EFL teaching materials is to attach attention to learner needs with flexible and versatile unifying of genuineness and learner authenticity.
