通过发散性思维任务提高初中生的英语写作能力

论文摘要

基础教育阶段英语课程的任务就是使学生掌握一定的英语基础知识和听说读写技能,形成一定的综合语言运用能力;培养学生的观察、记忆、思维、想象能力和创新精神。听说读写是语言学习的基本技能,写也就是进行写作训练,其目的就是要培养学生的观察思考,分析总结和书面表达能力,提高学生运用语言进行笔头交际和解决实际问题的能力。初中英语的写作训练是一个渐进,连续的,完整的过程,要想学生真正地会写,关键还是要引导学生学活英语,扩展英语,懂得巧用英语。如何引导学生学活巧用英语,关键还是要培养学生的发散思维能力。发散思维又称辐射思维,多向思维或求异思维,是指从一个目标或思维出发,沿不同的方向,顺应各种角度,提出各种假设,寻找各种途径,解决具体问题的思维方法,它具有流畅性、变通性、独创性的特征,可使人有目的、有条理、有步骤、有次序地开阔思路,不断突破,从多方面达到开拓创新的目的。正如美国心理学家吉尔福特所说“人的创造力主要依靠发散思维,它是创造性思维的主要成分.”因此,在初中阶段如何结合新课程理念,通过培养和发展学生的发散思维能力以发散性思维任务促进英语写作能力的提高就成为一个值得思考的问题.本文通过对语言的创造性和发散性思维及其写作的研究,明确语言是具有创造性的,发散性思维是创造思维的核心,写作能力是语言能力的具体表现,培养发散性思维可促进语言的创造性和发展,通过对实验班进行发散性思维写作中的字词句的发散思维训练来研究发散性思维写作任务对写作能力的提高和促进。由于创造能力的核心是发散性思维,本文的假设就是：在课堂实施字词句的发散性思维任务能够提高初中生的写作能力。为了验证这个假设,笔者在文海中学八年级两个班进行了为期一学期的发散性思维写作训练,实验旨在探索通过发散性思维写作中的字词句篇章的发散来提高学生的写作能力,探索发散性思维写作训练的教学模式.该研究证明,发散性思维写作任务对写作能力有提高和促进的作用,通过字词句的发散性写作训练,实验班学生的写作能力得到了显著提高。
