心理学理论的发展与外语教学流派的形成

论文摘要

当今世界经济和文化领域的全球化要求一大批英语熟巧、擅长国际交流的大学毕业生致力于我国的国际交流并为提升我国的国际形象做出贡献。但是对于外语教学研究的不足以及盲目照搬西方的理论和教法使得我国的英语教学水平仍低于其它发达国家的教学水平。因此,选择适合中国大学生需要的正确的教学方法则显得尤为重要。回顾传统外语教学流派的形成和发展的轨迹,各教学法都在当时的教学领域扮演过重要角色,且它们都或多或少地借鉴了当时在哲学、心理学、语言学及教育学领域里较为先进的科学的理论,如联想主义、行为主义及认知理论等分别对直接法、视听法和认知法的形成产生了较为重要的影响,而这些心理学理论和外语教学方法将在本文分别进行详细的介绍和说明。在最后一章里,基于前几章对心理学理论和教学方法的介绍和对比,以及结合本人的英语专业教学实践,提出英语教学应以学生为中心,推行“完整的人”教育理念,全面开发潜能,使他们成为“精通英语,有一技之长,各方面素质较好”的复合型人才。
