输出驱动引导下的大学英语精读课堂行动研究

An Action Research on Intensive Reading of College English under Output Driven Theory

语言输出是学生提高外语应用水平的重要手段,但在大学英语精读教学中,尤其是课文处理环节中,却存在学生输出意愿不强、输出缺乏内容、逻辑性不强的问题。笔者通过行动研究的方法将思维能力培养与课文篇章分析相结合设置课堂问题,力求改善学生课堂语言输出的数量和质量。两阶段的行动研究结果表明,学生语言输出能力培养与思维能力培养密不可分,二者的结合是提高学生语言输出能力的有效途径之一。

Within an ESL college intensive reading program, a one-year action research implemented, evaluated and refined classroom questioning to generate high-quality students＇ classroom output. Changes in the content and structure of students＇ output have been found which were initially characterized by reluctance to share, inadequate content and illogical organization. In this refined questioning system, developing students＇ cognitive ability has become part of out-put driven process and it has been proved valuable in driving quality output.
