论文摘要
《英语课程标准》2001年颁布,2003年修订以来,英语课堂教学发生了很大的变化,中小学课程改革启动标志着课堂教学将转化为以学生为中心,以能力发展为中心。然而时至今日,中小学英语教学仍然存在许多的问题,尤其是在农村中小学当中尤其突出。尽管任务型教学已经被倡导多年,传统教学法仍然占据课堂主要部分。课堂仍然是以教师为中心;以知识为中心;英语教学应试教育趋向明显,很多老教师疲惫于繁重的教学任务,不敢也无暇参与教学研究。课程改革的关键问题在于提高师资力量。本文据此研究和审视了四名高中英语教师在通过开展行动研究调整实施任务型教学的过程中的变化。探讨任务型教学实施的可行性和行动研究对于教师职业发展的作用。作者对行动研究和教师发展文件综述后,与研究组老师确定行动研究主题为:实施任务型教学,改变课堂效能,并在此基础上进行任务型教学文件综述,最终建立以行动研究为研究方法,开展任务型教学为平台的教师发展研究框架。文中用定性研究方法,使用问卷调查,采访,反思日志,听课,会议收集信息资料;运用解释学研究方法进行个案定性分析。审视了四名教师实施计划过程中在教学理念,教学能力方面发生变化的过程。参加者在研究之后产生了不同程度的改变研究结果表明:任务型教学适合于农村中小学英语课堂教学,有利于改变传统教学以教师中心,知识为中心的课堂,提高教学效应,是推行课程改革的有效途径。实施任务型教学应该结合传统教学法,做适当调整。行动研究为教师发展提供理论支撑,方法技能支持,促进教师培养反思教学能力,寻求自我职业发展机会,是促进教师改变教书匠的命运,实现自我发展的有效而且合适的途径。作者认为,本研究是教师研究的真实故事,有助于转变教师教学观念,提高教学能力和教学质量,是富有意义的。
