牛津高中英语Module2 unit2 Reading《An adventure in Africa》教学设计与反思一．教学分析1.教学内容分析本节课的教学内容是牛津高中英语模块二单元二的reading 部分。
这个模块就是以探索发现为主题的，介绍了太空探索，世界风情，以及考古发现等方面的知识。
本单元的主题是世界各地的风情。
这篇文章作为本单元的有机组成部分，以一封信的形式介绍了一个青少年和他的哥哥去非洲进行一次冒险旅行的计划。
文章中介绍了一些具有典型非洲特色的地方，例如，沙哈拉大沙漠，维多利亚湖，肯尼亚的野生动物，以及乞力马扎罗山。
在去这些地方的同时，还介绍了一些冒险活动，如骑骆驼穿越沙漠，白水漂流，看野生动物，爬雪山等。
这篇文章语言简洁，逻辑清晰，适合高一学生的阅读能力和认知水平，有利于培养学生的阅读能力以及获取信息的能力。
内容充满了浓郁的非洲特色，容易引起学生学习兴趣，并对其中的冒险活动充满了好奇。
为了满足学生强烈的求知欲和好奇心，教者又增加了一些关于非洲的图片，音乐，和视频，更为直观地介绍了非洲的人文，地理知识，通过更多的信息输入，培养学生敢于用英语交流和表达的自信心。
通过本课的学习，学生更多的了解了非洲的文化，地理知识，体会到了不同文化见的差异，培养跨文化交际的意识。
2.教学对象分析通过对世界地理和世界历史以及平时的生活常识，高一学生对非洲的了解仅止于沙漠，草原和野生动物，非洲对于他们来讲还充满来了神秘，对于这个年龄段的学生，正是有着强烈的好奇心和求知欲的阶段，因此也易于激发学生的学习热情。
通过初中以及高一初期英语的学习，学生已经具备一定的口头表达能力，但由于词汇知识和语法知识有限，在语言组织上还会存在比较大的困难。
另外，在学习本课时，学生对文章中各地旅行地之间的逻辑关系分析也存在一定的困难。
3.教学环境分析为了实现本节课的教学目标，教者选择了多媒体教室作为教学环境。
通过图片，音频和视频，多种渠道地输入信息，调动了学生的各种感官，提高了学生掌握信息的有效性。
