On the Concept of “Postmethod” in Foreign Language Teaching in China: Applications and Challenges

综述了“后方法”外语教学理念的出现背景、学者论断、教学主张、核心要素等,调查了该教学理念在我国外语教学领域的应用情况:该理念虽然以不同的方式被不同的教师应用到不同的外语课程教学中,但要达到真正的“后方法”状态还有很长的路要走。罗列了该理念在国内实践推广时面临的挑战:要求教师重构语言教学观、要求教师适时转换多重角色、要求学生成为自主的学习者。

The paper summarizes the background, scholars?arguments, teaching propositions and core elements of the “postmethod” foreign language teaching concept, and investigates the application of this concept in foreign language teaching in China: although the concept has been used by different teachers in different ways in teaching different English courses, there is still a long way to fully achieve“postmethod”teaching.The challenges faced in the practice and promotion of this concept in China are listed too :teachers are required to reconstruct their conception of language teaching and switch between roles timely while students are required to become autonomous learner.
