论对外汉语教材的实用性

On the Practicability of TCFL Textbooks

实用性最基本的要求是教材的内容对学习者有用,教材的编排好教易学。从教材编写的理论和实践来看,教材的实用性本质上是一个实用程度的问题,是一个优选优化的问题,是一个使用什么样的评价标准的问题,是一个教外国学生什么样的目的语语体的问题。文章分析了现行教材在实用性方面存在的各种问题,并提出了相应的改进措施。

In this paper the author argues that the practicability of TCFL textbooks requires that the content of a textbook be useful to learners and its arrangement. Perceived from the angel of methodology and practice of textbook compiling, the practicability of textbooks is gradable in nature. It is an issue of optimization, an issue of evaluation criterion and an issue of which style of the target language we should teach to foreign learners. Various problems concerning the practicability of textbooks are analyzed and several important approaches to the improvement of practicability are presented.
