论多元智能型英语教学策略

On the Multiple-Intelligences-Based English Teaching Strategies

多元智能理论由美国认知心理学家Howard Gardner在1983年首先提出。理论关注学习者个体的智力差异,具有丰富的英语教学和教育内涵。多元智能型英语教学是借鉴该理论指导英语教学实践的一种新模式,旨在通过多元英语教学形式将英语认知目标和智能发展目标有机融合。在实施过程中教师应注意遵循一定的步骤和原则,结合教材内容灵活地选择教学策略。多元智能理论给我国英语教学改革提供了全新的思路,有望激发学生对英语学习的兴趣、动机和成就感。

The theory of multiple intelligences is first proposed by the American cognitive psychologist Howard Gardner in 1983. It caters to intelligence discrepancy in individualized learners and abounds in English pedagogical and educational connotations. The MI-based English instruction as a new teaching mode guided by the theory is intended to integrate English cognitive objectives with intelligence developmental objectives via multi-mode English teaching patterns. In the course of implementation of the new mode, teachers should follow several steps and principles, and employ relevant strategies flexibly. The theory offers a brand-new idea for our English teaching reform and is expected to boost students＇ interest, motivation and the sense of achievement in their English studies.
