大学英语课程混合式教学模式实证研究

Empirical Research on the Blended Teaching Model for a College English Course

大学英语课程是汉语国际教育本科专业开设的一门重要课程,以专门用途英语课程为主。在信息化背景下,借助专门用途英语学习理论和'内容依托'型教学理论,本文尝试构建汉语国际教育专业'线上+线下'相结合的混合式英语教学模式,并开展英语精读课程的教学实践。实践过程中结合英语教学与汉语国际教育专业特色,教学内容强调中华文化的中英阐释以及学生跨文化交际能力的培养。实践结果证实以学科内容为依托的混合式教学模式对学生英语水平、交际能力、合作能力、自主学习能力以及专业素质提升的有效性,也对混合教学模式的在线PBL板块应用、教师角色转换、评价方式等方面提出新思考,以期为新技术背景下构建专门用途英语课程体系提供借鉴。
