系统工程视域下外语教育学学科体系架构及其特征研究

On the Construction of the Disciplinary System of Foreign Language Education Studies and Its Characteristics: A Perspective from Systems Engineering

学科体系是学科赖以生存和发展的基础,也是学科构建的关键。外语教育学科也是如此,同样需要一个成熟的学科体系。鉴于此,本研究以系统哲学为基础,以系统工程中常用的解释结构模型法为框架,从问题界定、目标制定、规划、实施和管理五大阶段,构建由外语课程研究、外语教材研究、外语学习研究等13个要素组成的外语教育学学科体系,并分析外语教育学学科体系的系统特征,旨在明确外语教育学的学科内容,进一步推动外语教育学学科构建工作。

A disciplinary system is essential to the existence and development of the discipline it belongs to,and thus it is key to discipline construction. The same is true for the discipline of foreign language education which also calls for a mature disciplinary system. The present paper tries to design a 13-element disciplinary system of Foreign Language Education Studies（FLES） by adopting the method of Interpretative Structural Modelling within the Systems Philosophy.These 13 elements of the disciplinary system,including research on curricula,teaching materials,learning,etc.,can be further categorized into such stages in sequence as problem-delineation,goal-setting,planning,implementation and management. The features of the disciplinary system are also presented so as to provide a better understanding of FLES and to promote the construction of FLES as an independent discipline.
