任务型教学法在高职高专英语写作教学中的应用研究

论文摘要

随着近年来英语教学模式和教学理念的转变,任务型教学法受到越来越多研究者的关注。传统的3P教学以演练—操练—结果为基本步骤,教学以教师为中心,任务型教学法则强调以学生为中心。《大学英语<课程要求>》提倡将任务型教学法应用于英语教学。英语写作学习在英语学习中占据重要位置,英语写作技能也是英语基本技能之一。本论文旨在探究任务型教学法应用于英语写作课程的可行性及有效性。论文阐述了任务型教学法的定义、特征、种类、成分、任务设计原则以及其理论基础,并对英语写作应用的教学方法进行归纳总结。在实验部分,通过对河北政法职业学院学生的英语写作课教学的研究来比较任务性教学法和传统3P教学法的教学效果,进而论证任务型教学法应用在英语写作课的可行性和有效性。实验中任务型教学法应用于实验班,另外的对照班则继续沿用传统教学法。为了使研究过程展示得更清晰,作者列举了课程中设计的各种任务。论文通过问卷调查,访谈以及对实验两班学生的前测与后测成绩进行统计分析的方式进行研究。研究结果表明任务型教学法能够激发学生学习写作的兴趣,相对传统英语教学法,任务型教学法更有利于提高学生学习英语写作的效率。尽管论文有其局限性,本论文的目的是为高职高专院校的英语课程提供一种可行有效的教学方法,以此来增强高职高专学生英语写作的学习效果。
