基于网络连接主义的商务英语教学设计及评估

Instructional Design and Evaluation of Business English(BE) Based on Networked Connectivism

随着全球化时代商务信息量的急剧膨胀,传统的基于课堂教学的商务英语教学设计已经无法满足实践中的商务英语知识运行的需要。网络连接主义学习理论为商务英语的教学设计打开了另一扇大门,它不但符合实践中的商务英语知识的运行特征,还能使学生超越传统教学和课堂的限制,与社会商务实践有更为紧密的结合。本文主要以网络连接主义学习理论为依托,结合商务英语学科发展的趋势,创建商务英语教学生态系统,构建非线性的商务英语＂知识网络＂。同时,就教学实施过程和＂知识网络＂进行了严格的评估设计,从而达到商务英语教学效果的最佳化。

With the rapid expansion of business information in the globalization era,the traditional BE instructional design based on classroom teaching can not meet the needs of mobile BE knowledge in practice. The learning theory of networked connectivism opens another door for BE instructional design,which not only matches the mobile features of BE knowledge in practice, but also makes students go beyond the traditional teaching and classroom and to have a closer connection with business practice in the society. This paper, based on the learning theory of networked connectivism,together with the devel- opment trend of BE discipline,creates a BE eco-system and nonlinear BE ＂knowledge network＂. Meanwhile,strict evaluation design concerning teaching implementation and ＂knowledge network＂ has been done so as to optimize BE teaching effect.
