大学英语任务型教学的实验研究

Experimental research on task-based English teaching in institutions of higher education

任务型教学(task-based language teaching,TBLT)是20世纪80年代兴起的一种强调“做中学”(learning by do-ing)的语言教学方法。它最主要的特点就是根据一定的教学目标设计尽量真实可行的任务,激励、引导学生参与这些任务,并最终完成任务。将知识教学融入到亲自完成一项任务的具体活动当中,让学生不仅能学到英语知识,而且还能亲自体验到“做事”的经历和乐趣,从而提高他们运用英语的能力。

Task- Based Language Teaching （TBLT） is a language teaching method emphasizing ＂learning by doing＂ which sprung up in the 1980s. Its main characteristic is to design the real - life tasks according to certain teaching target, encourage and conduct students to participate in these tasks and finish them in the end. Introducing knowledge teaching into a task which needs to be done by oneself makes students not only learn the English knowledge, but also experience how to do something and its fun. Therefore, students can improve their own ability to use English.
