建构主义理论及其在初中英语词汇教学中的应用

论文摘要

词汇学习是外语学习的一个重要组成部分。2001年,教育部颁布了《英语课程标准(实验稿)》,要求初中学生在毕业时应当学习和掌握2000个左右的单词。这一要求给中学词汇教学带来新的挑战,学生面临的最大问题就是如何有效地理解、储存和掌握词汇。因此,非常有必要研究哪些策略可以有效地帮助学生掌握词汇。本研究以建构主义理论为基础,根据建构主义理论的知识观、学习观和教学观,结合笔者的教学经验,着重阐述了几种适合初中生的词汇学习策略如联想记忆策略、语境猜测词义法、交际策略等,同时也分析了一些词汇教学原则。本研究作者通过教学实验,以问卷调查、采访及测试等方式,证明了运用以上教学策略的有效性。作者在结论中指出,只有以建构主义理论为指导,教育学生运用有效的英语词汇学习策略、进一步改进教学方法才能够有效地学好词汇,更好地掌握英语。
