视觉学习视角下的语言可视化表征与教学应用

Visual Representations of Language Knowledge and Teaching Application from Perspective of Visual Learning

视觉学习是一种新型的、符合现代数字一代成长的学习范式,也是图像化生存时代知识呈现可视化的必然趋势。它正在改变着课堂教学,特别是外语学习者获取知识的方式。语言知识的可视化是语言知识类型呈现、传递和习得的智能化,是一种新的教学理念和实践。在外语教学中,借助可视化手段,可以有效增强显性知识和隐性知识的表征效果及促进二者之间的相互转化,从而实现知识传递,培养创新思维,促进语言知识的学得与习得。

Visual learning is an emerging and important paradigm to learn, especially for the digital generation growing up with technology. In this ＂era of visual survival＂, the dominant mode of presenting knowledge is visual, thus it has become an inevitable trend to learn visually. Visual learning is now transforming the methodology in classroom teaching, especially changing the way of acquiring knowledge for foreign language learners. Language knowledge visualization is a new educational model which emphasizes intelligent processing in presenting, transferring and acquiring knowledge of language. Appropriate application of visual representations in language teaching can enhance the effects of presenting implicit and explicit knowledge and assisting the conversion between these two kinds of knowledge so as to fulfill the objectives of transferring knowledge, cultivating creative thinking and facilitating language learning and acquisition.
