外语教育中的跨文化能力教学参考框架研制

Developing a framework of reference for intercultural competence teaching in China’s foreign language education

本研究基于先行开发的大中小学跨文化能力发展一体化模型,借鉴教育目标分类学和发展心理学理论,运用焦点访谈、教学实验等方法构建我国外语教育中的跨文化能力教学参考框架。参考框架确立了认知理解(外国文化知识、中国文化知识、普遍文化知识)、情感态度(文化意识、国家认同、全球视野)和行为技能(跨文化体认、跨文化对话、跨文化探索)3个维度、9个要素的能力结构,每个要素按照小学、初中、高中、大学划分梯度和描述能力,期望能为外语教师开展跨文化能力教学实践提供参考。

This study applies the Integrated Model for Chinese Students’ Intercultural Competence Development,and constructs a framework of reference for intercultural competence teaching in China’s foreign language education.Informed by the theories of learning taxonomies and developmental psychology,the study adopts mixed methods such as focus group interviews and teaching experiments at different stages to develop the framework empirically.The framework includes three dimensions and nine components,namely knowledge(foreign cultural knowledge,Chinese cultural knowledge,general cultural knowledge),attitudes(cultural awareness,national identity,global mindedness),and skills(intercultural experiencing,intercultural dialogue,intercultural exploration).It presents gradient descriptions of the content goals of each component at the level of elementary schools,middle schools,high schools and colleges respectively,intended to provide reference for foreign language teachers in practicing intercultural competence teaching.
