外语教学中项目学习法的4R原则

The 4R of Project-Based Learning in Foreign Language Teaching

21世纪初,西方教育家们提出项目学习法是一种体现4R的学习模式,4R即挑战性、相关性、协调性、反思性,并指出,4R原则为教师如何帮助学生为项目学习法做好准备提供了框架。该文阐述了4R原则在整个项目学习系统中各个环节的具体体现和渗透方式,并分析如何在中国教育背景下运用4R原则指导项目学习法的开展,以期使项目学习法更加科学合理地运用于外语教学实践,达到更加理想的效果,从而帮助学生真正做到“学以致用”。

From the beginning of this century,western educators have proposed that the project-based learning is an approach to teaching and learning that embodies the 4R,which is Rigor,Relevance,Relationship,Reflection,and have pointed out that the 4R provides a framework for teachers to help students prepare for the Project-Based Learning.This paper explains the concrete manifestation and infiltration of the 4R in all aspects of the whole project learning system,explores how to use the 4R to guide the project-based learning in China,hoping that the project-based learning can be applied more scientifically and rationally to foreignlanguage teaching practice in China and thus can achieve more ideal effects so as to help students to truly“learn to use”.
