大学英语教学中的现行纠错原则探析

On Current Error Correction Principle in College English Teaching

语言是人际交流的重要渠道,它的准确性和流利性是信息能否顺畅传达的关键,此二者并重既是一个教学原则问题,也是一个纠错原则问题,对任何一方的侧重或偏废都有可能带来不良教学后果。语言教学领域普遍认为对学习者在具体学习过程中所出现的语失或错误应持包容态度,否则将增加学习者的焦虑情绪、挫伤他们学习语言的积极性。然而对语失或错误现象终究应该如何处理,学界言之较少。结合目前大学英语教学总趋势,根据语言学领域结构主义和行为主义原理,提出对语言教学中的语失和错误现象应采用现行纠错法及时更正,并运用相关语言教学实践环节论证现行纠错原则的合理性。

Language is the key facility of human beings communication. Its accuracy and fluency usually affect the exchange of information. They should be paid equal attention to during the language teaching and learning. Universally, learners＇ errors or mistakes are neglected according to the concern that the correct of them will hold back the learners＇ interest in learning language by adding their tension. It is rare in the field of the scholars to study the method in which they should be done. Keeping a good balance between language fluency and accuracy is not only a teaching principle but also a principle of error correction. A biased treatment or discard of either fluency or accuracy may lead to bad teaching result. Based on the analysis of college English teaching situation in China and application of language teaching and learning theory, this paper intends to expound the rationality of carrying out this principle.
