论高中学生英语自主学习

论文摘要

中华人民共和国教育部制定的,《英语课程新标准》中把培养中学生自主学习英语的能力作为英语教学的主要目标,呼吁教师和教育管理部门创造条件培养学生学习的自主性。本文围绕学生自主学习能力的发展进行了深入的研究和探讨。本文首先回顾了与自主学习相关的概念和理论基础,并阐述了培养高中学生英语自主学习能力的必要性,分析了影响自主学习能力的要素,如:学习者对英语自主学习的态度、学习动机、学习策略以及学习环境。继而作者在对279名绵阳高中生进行了问卷调查和访谈,以了解高中学生自主学习的现状。通过研究,本文试图探讨以下问题:1)在中学培养高中学生英语自主学习能力是否可行;2)如何帮助这些高中学生成为积极自主的英语学习者。通过数据分析和结果比较,作者得出以下结论:1)在该地区培养高中学生英语自主学习能力是可行的。首先,大多数学生有自主学习的意识,他们认识到应该为自己的学习负责,但仍需要教师的帮助、指导与监督;其次,他们也意识到了学习策略的重要性,但在具体的选择和使用上有所欠缺。2)作者针对调查的结果,提出了相应培养英语学习者的自主性的建议从而提高英语学习效果。整个研究对该地区英语教学工作有很大的指导意义。
