基于微课的英语精读课词源文化信息导入探究

On the Introduction of Cultural Message in the Etymology of Words in Intensive Reading Class Based on Micro-lectures

语言是文化的载体,词汇作为语言中最活跃的因素,其丰富的文化内涵常能反映出独特的民族文化特色。但在实际教学中由于教学课时限制或师生重视不足,教学语篇中词汇词源所隐含的文化信息未能得到充分的挖掘。研究选取教学单元课文内容中有研究意义的语词词源,制作成“小而精”的微课资源,提高学生学习课文的兴趣,引导学生进行独立思考,从而在提升学生的语篇阅读能力的同时培养学生分析、比较和正确对待文化差异的跨文化能力。

Language is the carrier of culture.As the most active elements in language,words always convey rich cultural messages,which bear unique national cultural features.Due to the limited course hours or insufficient attention from teachers and students,however,the cultural messages of etymologies in the texts haven’t been fully discussed.In the hope of enhancing students’reading ability and developing their intercultural competence,the study chooses some valuable etymological information from the texts and makes micro-lectures so as to arouse students’interest in text-learning and lead them to think independently.
