以化工职业英语为导向的公共英语教学功能重新思考与定位

Rethinking and Positioning of Teaching Function of the Public English of the Chemical Vocational English Oriented

高职教育的目的就是培养"无缝链接"适合社会需求的实用人才。以普通高等教育为参照的高职公共英语教学,一方面难以体现出高职教学本身应有的特点,另一方面高职公共英语专业应用性不强,不能满足学生化工职业英语环境的需要,学生所学内容与将来工作岗位脱钩,学不致用。枯燥单一的语言知识灌输,使原本英语基础较差的高职学生对英语学习更失去了信心和兴趣,导致英语教学跟不上职业形势发展。因此以培养具有化工职业英语素养的复合型人才,满足企业对化工专业人才的交际英语需求的公共英语教学功能改革迫在眉睫。课程功能设计应遵循公共英语设计的基础上结合化工学生自身职业特点,同时兼顾注重学生实际的需求。

The purpose of higher vocational education is to cultivate the＂seamless link＂practical personnel fit for the social demand.Reference to the ordinary higher education,the teaching of public English of higher vocational college on one hand can not show the characteristics of the higher vocational education,on the other hand can not satisfy the demand of students for English environment of chemical specialty due to its low applicability.The content of students learning departs from the future work and the knowledge can not be used.Boring language teaching makes higher vocational college students that have poor basic English knowledge lose interest and confident in English learning,which results in the English teaching can not catch up with the development of work trend.Therefore,the teaching reform of public English,which cultivates the comprehensive personnel with the quality of chemical English and can satisfy the enterprise＇s demand for communication English of chemical specialty students are extremely urgent.The design of course function should combine the vocational characteristics of chemical students on the basis of abiding by the design of public English,as well as pay attention to the students＇ practical demand.
