任务型语言教学法在英语泛读课中的运用

Application of Task-based Language Teaching To English Extensive Reading

任务型语言教学法是近年来新兴的课堂教学手段,是一种以任务为核心来计划、组织语言教学的教学方法,旨在强调把语言运用的基本理念转化为具有实践意义的课堂教学模式,在课堂教学活动中让学生用英语完成各种真实生活、学习、工作等活动,从而培养学生运用英语的能力。目前,大多数高校英语泛读教学还是采用传统的方式授课,表现为过多地承担了词汇、语法等语言基础知识的任务,逐字逐句地讲解、翻译等。这种"满堂灌"的方法忽略了学生参与课堂教学的积极性,学生缺乏主动建构知识的动力,严重影响了阅读教学的效果。以英语泛读教学为突破点,依托任务型语言教学的核心理据,结合英语泛读课堂教学实际,对英语任务型泛读教学进行探析。
