任务教学法在高职英语听说教学中应用之研究

论文摘要

我国的高等职业技术教育虽然起步较晚,但自90年代以来,取得了飞速的发展。在培养生产、技术、服务、管理等方面的应用型人才方面发挥了重要作用,也因此高职高专教育被给与了更高的重视。近些年中国开放程度的加大对高职高专毕业生的英语水平提出了更高的要求。“实用为主,够用为度”的教学原则也进一步明确了英语交际能力培养的价值。然而这一目标的实现与现行的教学方式存在着严重的冲突。目前高职高专的英语教学受本科教学的影响,对文法研究所占比例偏大,不能打破传统教学模式的瓶颈,因材施教来保证英语教学的授课效果。而在影响学生学习效果的各种因素之中,听说能力滞后是导致学生英语学习比较低迷的主要原因。如何改进教学方法,提高教学效果,更好地满足市场对职业技能人才的需求,是我们目前外语教学研究的一个重要课题。为了改变高职英语教学的这一现状,越来越多的英语教师已在应用和探索或正尝试任务型语言教学,尤其是在英语听说能力的培养方面。本文以高职高专英语教学现状为出发点,提出任务教学法在高职英语听说教学中运用的意义及可行性,并探索了如何有效实施任务教学法以提高高职英语听说教学的质量,旨在为更加行之有效的教学模式的推出提供一定的借鉴。本论文由以下六章组成:第一章:提出本文的研究价值,首先通过分析当今我国高职高专英语教学的现状及存在的问题,指出了寻求更加行之有效的英语听说教学模式的必要性及其意义。第二章:提出任务教学法的理论基础并详细阐述任务教学法与传统教学法相比存在的优势。第三章:对任务教学法在高职英语听说教学中运用的可行性进行论述。第四章:分析了任务教学法在高职英语听说教学中实施的框架和有效步骤。第五章:就问卷调查结果对目前任务教学法在高职英语教学中应用存在的问题进行分析,并依此提出建设性意见。第六章:总结整理论文,并阐释论文尚存在的不足之处,并对今后的探索研究提出建议。
