论高中英语教学中的自主学习

论文摘要

21世纪的学习者要适应时代发展,必须以具备终生学习能力为基础。同时,随着全球化进程的日益加剧,英语作为最重要的国际性语言,在人们工作与生活中的地位与作用日益凸现出来。在此背景下,国内外有关如何在英语教学过程中培养学生自主性的研究层出不穷,让学生学会学习,学会思考己成为当前教育研究的热点。自主学习理论是现代教育心理学尤其是人本主义、认知主义和社会建构主义学习理论的结晶。从教学法的角度来看,自主学习既是一种教学理念,又是一个教育目标。教育部2003年颁布的《普通高中英语课程标准》把发展学生的自主学习能力列在高中阶段各级课程目标总体描述的首位:六级—有较强的自主学习意识,七级—有明确持续的学习动机和自主学习意识,八级—有较强的信心和自主学习能力。由此可见,发展自主学习能力是我国高中英语教学的重要目标之一。目前世界上许多国家非常重视学生自主学习能力的培养和研究,并初步形成了教学理论和学习策略。在实际教学中取得了一定的成果。有效地在英语教学中实施自主学习,是符合我国新一轮课程改革发展需要的。根据以上理论,本文通过问卷和试验的方法,在分析了高中英语教学的现状和存在的问题后采用促进学生自主能力提高的各种手段来促进试验班学生自主学习能力的提高,一年的试验结果证明了试验班学生的学习能力和学习效果相对控制班有明显的提高。本文证明培养学生自主学习能力是可能和必要的,学习者如果能对自己的学习负责必然会取得更好的学习效果。相信本研究一定能够对改进高中英语教学有所帮助,并对今后进一步的研究自主学习有所启发。
