陌生化技巧在高校英语教学中的应用

On the Application of Defamiliarization in College English Teaching

20世纪初期,俄国形式主义理论家什克洛夫斯基提出了陌生化理论,即采用创造性的独特方式,使人们对熟视无睹的事物也能有新的发现,给人新的审美体验、新的认识、新的思维结果。大学英语教学过程中应借鉴陌生化理论,从教学环境、师生角色、教学内容、教学评估等不同角度改变陈旧的教学模式,在“陌生化”的英语教学环境中唤起学生的审美联想,保持对英语学习的新鲜感与积极性,从而提高课堂教学效率,取得良好的教学效果。

At the beginning of the 20th century,Viktor Shklovsky,the Russian theorist of formalism,put forward the theory of“defamiliarization”,which advocates creative ways to bring about new discoveries(fresh aesthetic experience,different insights,and new findings)in matters people are familiar with.College English teaching should,in the view of this theory,make some changes in the teaching environment,teachers’and students’role,content,and assessment to build a“defamiliarized”teaching mode that arouses students’aesthetic association and keep the novelty in English learning and students’passion for it,thereby greatly enhancing the efficiency and effect of English teaching.
