中国文化环境下大学英语自主学习模式探究

An Exploration of Autonomous Learning Mode of College English in Chinese Context

自主学习模式的本土化探究受到国内外研究者的关注。以非语言专业64名学生为研究对象进行了一年的大学英语自主学习模式课堂研究。研究过程主要包括商定单元学习任务、执行并监督学习过程及评估学习结果三个阶段的循环进行。结果表明,"教师为导、学生为主,以合作促自主"的学习模式能够很好地培养中国大一新生自主学习的能力。大一第一学期为学生对该模式的接受阶段,第二学期为学生主动实践阶段。学生的语言能力及创新能力得到了提高,学生身份认同经历了四种转变:被动者、探索者、合作者、主动者。

The exploration of autonomous learning in the local culture has gained wider and wider attention.This paper does a one-year classroom-based research of 64 non-major students,including the negotiation of the task,the implementation and monitoring of the learning process and also the evaluation of the outcome.The paper finds that learning through autonomy-orientated cooperation under the guidance of the teacher is quite effective in promoting Chinese freshmen’s autonomy.The first term in the first year is the stage for the learners to adapt themselves to the mode,and the second term is the practice stage.In the process of autonomy development,the learners’ linguistic ability and creative ability are also developed.The learners’ identity changes from passive learner,explorer,cooperator to active learner.
