利用多媒体影/音录制提高大学英语口语教学

Improving Oral Output in College English in Multimedia Video/Audio Recording Settings

大学英语教学改革提倡充分利用现代信息技术,然而目前在口语教学中多媒体设备更多地被用作进行输入而非输出的工具。实际上,利用多媒体影/音录制功能能够增加口语输出、强化注意、提供学习动力与输出证据。在教学实践中,需要通过"布置口语任务——多媒体影/音录制——回放"三个步骤来实现利用多媒体影/音录制功能提高英语口语输出的教学模式。在影/音"录制——回放"两个关键环节上,学生不断地监控上一次录制下来的口语输出,通过对语音、语法形式、意义、语用、表达技巧等层面上逐步加强注意,从而达到提高英语口语能力的目标。

Modern educational technology has been advocated to promote College English teaching and learning reform.However,the multimedia equipments are used more for increasing input rather than eliciting output in oral English teaching and learning.It has been proved that in multimedia video/audio recording settings,students'oral output can be increased,with their noticing and motivation strengthened and also evidence of their development offered.A model of improving students'oral output could be put to practice through three steps:assigning specific oral tasks?avideo/audio recording?aplayback,where the last two ones are critical in that students will finally improve their oral English ability by developing more and more focused noticing on their outputting pronunciation,forms,meanings,pragmatic skills and so on by repeating 'recording?aplayback' over and over again.
