建构主义学习理论指导下非英语专业学生跨文化交际能力的培养——浅谈抛锚式教学模式

Cultivating Intercultural Communicative Competence for Non-English Majors Based on Constructivist Learning Theory

随着科学技术和经济全球化的进一步发展,2008年奥运会在北京的成功举办以及2010年上海世博会的胜利落幕,越来越多的英语教育者已经意识到跨文化交际能力的培养在英语教学中的重要性,很多教育学家也从国外引进了一些该领域的理论和教学方法,同时也提出了他们自己的观点以及符合中国实际的教学模式。但很多介绍都是针对英语专业学生,很少有论文涉及非英语专业学生跨文化交际能力的提高,结合建构主义学习理论的教学方法更为罕见。因此,本文试图结合建构主义学习理论在语言教学中一些优点来培养非英语专业学生的跨文化交际能力。

With the development of technology, globalization of economy, successful hosting 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing and World EXPO in Shnaghai, more and more English educators have realized the importance of cultivating intercultural Communicative competence for English learners. Many teaching theories and teaching methods in this field have been introduced into China, and many scholars have put forward their suggestions and teaching models according to the present situation of China. However, most of them are mainly about English majors, few studies about non-English majors and rare papers from the constructivist learning theory. Therefore, this paper is mainly on cultivating intercultural communicative competence for non-English majors based on some advantages from constructivism.
