聚焦于形:课堂环境下语言形式的教学

Focus on Form: the Teaching of Linguistic Forms in Classroom Settings

近年来,不少理论和实践研究表明,在任务型教学课堂中融入对语言形式的教学可以有效提高学习者的语言习得水平。本文介绍了"重形式教学"这一概念的界定及其分类,讨论了如何在任务型教学中有效融入这一教学模式,以及课堂环境下实施"重形式教学"时教师所充当的角色,最后提出了几个目前在这一领域仍需解决的问题以供未来研究之用。

In recent decades,theoretical and empirical studies have indicated that a focus of linguistic forms in the task-based language teaching promotes the process of language acquisition in learners.The current paper discusses the definition and classification of focus-on-form instruction in the first place,and then attempts to analyze how focus-on-form instruction can be incorporated into task-based language teaching.Also,it introduces the role of teachers in focus-on-form instruction in classroom settings before some more questions are raised for further research.
