试论建构主义理论对写作教学的启示

Discussion on the Influence of Constructivism on the Teaching of Writing

传统教学以学生被动接受,死记课本知识,教师为课堂主宰,教学单向流动,学生个性受到严重压抑为特点。建构主义摒弃了这些传统教学方式,强调学生是知识意义的主动建构者,学生是教学的主体,教师是学生知识建构的组织者、参与者、帮助者,学生的背景知识受到重视,学生的个性得到充分的尊重,师生、生生的交流互动是教学中重要环节。在建构主义理论指导下的写作教学体现了平等、互动、创新的特质。

Traditional approach teaches students who tend to develop a passive acceptance memorization of textbook knowledge;teachers dominate the classroom,in a oneway flow of interaction in class,and students are severely suppressed with their personality development. Differently from the traditional approach, eonstruetivism emphasizes the importance of constructing knowledge, student- centered teaching environment, the teacher serving as an organizer, participant, and facilitator; students＇ existing knowledge is highly utilized and students＇ individual learning style is fully respected; interactions between the teacher and students, and among students are seen as important links. Under this construetivism, the teaching of writing reflects equality, engagement, and innovation.
