(一)打破了傳統(tǒng)的教材建設理念。本教材改變了“為學語言而學語言”的傳統(tǒng)教材建設理念,融入了具有時代特色且被證明行之有效的內(nèi)容依托教學和任務型教學的優(yōu)秀成分。改變了片面關(guān)注語言知識和語言技能而忽視知識內(nèi)容學習的做法。它依托學生密切關(guān)注的交際文化知識組織學生進行語言交際活動,在語言交流中學習有意義的知識內(nèi)容,既訓練語言技能。又豐富相關(guān)交際知識,起到的是一箭雙雕的作用。
(二)涉及系統(tǒng)的英語交際內(nèi)容!肚榫坝⒄Z交際》共分十六個單元,涉及校園生活、業(yè)余愛好、影視娛樂、音樂欣賞、微機網(wǎng)絡、運動健身、休閑假日、傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日、旅游觀光、愛情友情、潮流時尚、家庭生活、消除偏見、成敗得失、未來求學、工作體驗等日常生活中實用的交際話題和交際場合,為學生未來應對各種場合的英語交際活動打下良好基礎。
(三)引進了真實的教學材料。英語教材是英語學習者英語語言輸入和相關(guān)知識輸入的重要渠道。本教材大量使用真實、地道的語言材料,為學生提供了高質(zhì)量的語言輸入。此外,為了使課文內(nèi)容更加充實生動,易于學生理解接受,編者在課文中穿插了大量的插圖、表格、照片等真實的視覺材料,表現(xiàn)手段活潑,形式多種多樣,效果生動直觀。
隨著我國英語教育的快速發(fā)展,英語專業(yè)長期貫徹的“以技能為導向”的課程建設理念及教學理念已經(jīng)難以滿足社會的需要。專家和教師們密切關(guān)注的現(xiàn)行英語專業(yè)教育大、中、小學英語教學脫節(jié),語言、內(nèi)容教學割裂,單純語言技能訓練過多,專業(yè)內(nèi)容課程不足,學科內(nèi)容課程系統(tǒng)性差,高、低年級內(nèi)容課程安排失衡及其導致的學生知識面偏窄、知識結(jié)構(gòu)欠缺、思辨能力偏弱、綜合素質(zhì)發(fā)展不充分等問題日益凸顯。
針對上述問題,我們依托國家哲學社會科學項目“英語專業(yè)基礎階段內(nèi)容依托式教學改革研究”,以內(nèi)容依托教學理論為指導理論,確定了如下改革思路。
(一)更新語言教學理念,改革英語專業(yè)教學的課程結(jié)構(gòu)。在不改變專業(yè)總體培養(yǎng)目標和教學時限的前提下,對課程結(jié)構(gòu)進行革命性的變革:改變傳統(tǒng)單一的語言技能課程模式,實現(xiàn)內(nèi)容課程與語言課程的融合,擴展學生的知識面,提高學生的語言技能。
(二)開發(fā)課程自身潛力,同步提高專業(yè)知識和語言技能。內(nèi)容依托課程本身也同時關(guān)注內(nèi)容和語言,把內(nèi)容教學和語言教學有機結(jié)合。以英語為媒介,系統(tǒng)教授專業(yè)內(nèi)容;以專業(yè)內(nèi)容為依托,在使用語言過程中提高語言技能,擴展學生的知識面。
(三)改革教學方法手段,全面提高語言技能和綜合素質(zhì)。依靠內(nèi)容依托教學在方法上的靈活性,通過問題驅(qū)動、輸出驅(qū)動等方法調(diào)動學生主動學習,把啟發(fā)式、任務式、討論式、結(jié)對子、小組活動、課堂發(fā)表等行之有效的活動與學科內(nèi)容教學有機結(jié)合,提高學生的語言技能,激發(fā)學生的興趣,培養(yǎng)學生的自主性和創(chuàng)造性,提升思辨能力和綜合素質(zhì)。
本項改革突破了我國英語專業(yè)英語教學大綱規(guī)定的課程結(jié)構(gòu),改變了英語專業(yè)基礎階段通過開設單純的聽、說、讀、寫四種語言技能課提高學生語言技能的傳統(tǒng)課程建設理念,對英語課程及教學方法進行了創(chuàng)新性的改革。首創(chuàng)了英語專業(yè)基礎階段具有我國特色的內(nèi)容、語言融合的課程體系;率先開發(fā)了適合英語專業(yè)基礎階段的內(nèi)容依托課程;系統(tǒng)開發(fā)了英語國家歷史、地理、社會文化、歐洲文化、中國文化、跨文化交際、《圣經(jīng)》與文化、功能英語交際、情景英語交際、英語演講與辯論等教材,以嶄新的途徑實現(xiàn)英語專業(yè)教育的總體培養(yǎng)目標。
經(jīng)過七年的醞釀、準備、實驗,教學改革取得了鼓舞人心的結(jié)果。
(一)構(gòu)建了英語專業(yè)基礎階段內(nèi)容依托課程與語言課程融合的課程體系。新的課程體系改變了傳統(tǒng)單一的聽、說、讀、寫語言技能課程模式,實現(xiàn)了內(nèi)容依托課程和語言技能課程兩種模塊的融合;課程包含綜合英語、聽力、語音、寫作、功能英語交際、情景英語交際、英語演講與辯論、英國歷史文化、英國自然人文地理、英國社會文化、美國歷史文化、美國自然人文地理、美國社會文化、澳新加社會文化、歐洲文化、中國文化、跨文化交際、《圣經(jīng)》與文化;語言技能課程密切關(guān)注英語語言技能的發(fā)展,內(nèi)容依托課程不僅關(guān)注系統(tǒng)的學科內(nèi)容,而且也關(guān)注綜合語言技能的培養(yǎng)。在課程外和課程內(nèi)兩個層面把內(nèi)容教學和語言教學有機結(jié)合,通過內(nèi)容教學培養(yǎng)學生綜合語言運用能力,擴展學生的知識面,提高學生的綜合素質(zhì)和多元文化意識,從根本上改變英語專業(yè)學生知識面偏窄、綜合素質(zhì)偏低的問題。

Time is a precious commodity; basically, you use it or lose it. The good news is that we all have the same amount of time every day, so use it to your advantage. Since there will always be plenty of diversions to distract you from your goals, practice staying in the driver s seat when it comes to time management. Remember putting off for tomorrow the things you can do today is procrastination. Procrastination means wasted energy.
Here are some time management tools that can bring a sigh of relief to your busy college life.
Use task lists and a calendar to manage school, family, and social responsibilities. You have enough important facts and figures to remember right now without committing your ongoing calendar to memory. Use a time management tool to coordinate all of your daily, weekly, monthly tasks, obligations, social events, tests- and anything that is important for you to do.
Understand the difference between important and urgent. Important tasks must bed one; urgent tasks must be done NOW. Some things can be taken care of tomorrow, later this week, or next week. Really!
Work with your natural rhythm, not against it. Everyone has specific periods of peak productivity, so capitalize on your best time of day. If you re a morning person, plan to tackle the most difficult tasks before lunch. Likewise, ff you re a night owl, don t force yourself to study or work on complicated projects until late afternoon or evening.
Accept that you just can t do everything. Don t be a popularity addict. It may feel good in the moment to be "in demand," but wouldn t it feel even better to achieve the life you really want? Limit your commitments by choosing activities that you truly enjoy and are consistent with your goals. Practice saying no without feeling guilty; the mastery of the tactful decline is as dll that will come in handy throughout your life!
Take care of yourself by paying attention to your physical, emotional and financial health. The same rules still apply: eat well, get plenty of sleep, exercise regularly, and build time into your schedule for relaxation. Take proper care of your body and it will take care of you. Remember that stress, although it can t be seen, can cause a lot of damage——dont overtax your emotions with too many commitments. Also, pay attention to your financial health as well. Be realistic about your money, create a realistic budget and stick to it. Using a spending plan to control your finances can actually feel great- its em powering. Develop that muscle of determined discipline, and watch how it drives you towards your goals.
