基于语料库的大学英语专业词汇课堂教学模式及效果

Corpus-based College English Vocabulary Teaching Mode and the Teaching Effect

文章论述了基于语料库的大学英语专业教学的价值,并提出了将其运用到大学英语专业词汇课堂教学的四个步骤。在分析此教学模式的四个步骤时,论文通过举实例展示了如何使用COCA语料库在课堂中进行大学英语专业词汇教学。为了验证此教学模式的效果,作者选取了一个对照班和一个实验班进行了一项教学实验。该实验表明:(1)基于语料库的大学英语专业词汇课堂教学对学生的总体词汇水平没有显著影响,但是对中等成绩学生的词汇水平提高有明显促进作用;(2)该教学模式对学生的总体英语综合水平和各个层次学生的英语综合水平都没有显著提高。研究结论表明教师还应该不断修正该教学模式以适用于不同层次学生的需求,以及应该坚持和深化语料库在大学英语专业词汇课堂教学中的运用,以对学生的综合英语水平产生一定的积极作用。
