心理语言学理论在高职英语听说教学中的应用

The Application of Psycholinguistics in Higher Vocational English Listening and Speaking Teaching

由于传统教学观念的影响,英语听说能力的培养在国内大多数的高职院校并没有得到足够的重视。如何有效提高高职学生的英语听说能力是一个非常值得研究的课题。心理语言学是一门新兴的边缘学科,它研究了人类学习和使用语言的行为和心理过程,不但对探讨语言的起源、语言和思维的关系有重要的理论意义,而且对外语教学有着直接的指导意义,当人们能够理解语言理解、语言产生和语言习得的规律的时候,学习这门语言就轻松许多。因此,心理语言学理论对于解决我国高职英语听说教学中存在的问题有一定的辅助作用。

English listening and speaking is omitted in most higher vocational colleges because of our Chi- nese traditional teaching and testing system. How to improve the students＇ listening and speaking skills is quite a valuable subject. As a marginal subject, Psycholinguistics introduces how we are learning and using languages. It attributes to studying the religion of language, the relationship between language and thinking, which will be sure to guide foreign language teaching, including English listening and speaking teaching.
