基于建构主义视野的英语教学情境设计

On the Designing of English Teaching Contexts Based on Constructirism

建构主义认为学生是知识意义的主动建构者,而不是信息的被动接收者。英语教学要树立以学生为中心的教育理念,创设良好的教学情境,促进英语的有效学习。直观情境有利于引发学生的学习兴趣,问题情境有利于活跃学生的思维,合作情境有利于促进学生的互动交流,生活情境有助于促进知识的正迁移。创设英语教学情境应遵循实效性、和谐性、启发性和多元性原则。

Constructirism holds that students are not passive receivers but active constructors of knowledge. So in the teaching of English, we should have student- certered view, design favourable contexts to enable the students to learn better. Among the various contexts, audio- visual contexts can stimulate students＇ interest in learning; problem- solving contexts can make students active in thinking; cooperative contexts can better the communication among the students; living contexts can help the positive transfer of students＇ knowledge. The principles of effectiveness, harmony, inspiration and pluralism are the ones adhered to in the designing of the contexts.
