建构主义学习理论和基础英语课堂教学

Constructivist Learning Theory and Classroom Teaching of Basic English

建构主义学习理论认为知识不是传授的,学习不是一个刺激-反应的过程,而是学习者在一定的情境中,利用必要的学习资料,通过与环境的相互作用并和他人协作,逐步主动建构信息的过程。基于建构主义学习理论的基础英语课堂教学应从以下三方面着手:(1)利用多媒体技术进行情境教学。(2)利用多媒体技术,帮助学生进行意义建构。(3)营造良好的课堂环境,鼓励学生参与课堂交流与合作。

According to constructivist learning theory, knowledge is not imparted and learning is not a single process of stimulus - response, but a process of constructing information gradually and actively with the help of others and necessary learning materials in a certain situation. Guided by constructivist learning theory, the ways to teach basic English effectively for English majors are as follows： （1） teaching English in a real situation with the help of mass media; （2） helping students constructing information with the help of mass media; （3） constructing a harmonious classroom atmosphere and encouraging students to take an active part in communication and cooperation.
