新文科背景下学科英语的交叉接口与融合界面

The Fusion Interfaces of Disciplinary English in the Context of New Liberal Arts

新文科背景下,把英语教学与特定学科内容相融合的学科英语教学范式更加突显。研究提出英语与拟交叉融合学科之间的接口问题,以“英语语言对特定学科内容的知识建构”为突破点,阐释学科英语交叉融合的接口及其融合界面。研究认为,学科英语交叉融合的接口是“英语语言对特定学科内容的知识建构”,这一接口贴合有语法建构界面、知识建构界面、符号资源建构界面,构成一个三角锥面型接口,三个锥面有机融合对学科内容进行知识建构。学科英语教学应该关注学生用英语对学科内容进行知识建构的过程,聚焦交叉接口上的融合界面,培养学生的知识建构能力。

Under the background of constructing new liberal arts,disciplinary English teaching paradigm is becoming prominent.This paradigm is centered on how to use English to build up disciplinary-specific knowledge.Thus,the interface between English language and any specific discipline is proposed to be the focus of this study,in which the interface is defined as a fusion of grammar construction,disciplinary knowledge building,and the“power trio”as semiotic resource.These surfaces,as a three-dimensional interface between English language and any specific discipline,intersect and fuse organically in discourse-semantic construction for disciplinary-specific knowledge.Disciplinary English teaching should concern itself with students’competence in constructing disciplinary knowledge by using English,with a focus on the surfaces that rest upon the interface.
