《英语教学法教学法教程》王蔷(第二版)学习重点总结
英语教学法教学法教程（王蔷-第二版）重点总结Unit 1 Language and Learning1.1 How do we learn language？We learn language at different agesPeople have different experiencesPeople learn languages for different reasonsPeople learn languages in different waysPeople have different capabilities in language learningLearning can be affected by the way how language is taughtLearning is affected by the degree of success one is expect to achieve.Thus the challenge confronting language teaching is how teaching methodology can ensure successful learning by all the learners who have more differences than the commonality.1. 2 What are the major views of language?1) Structural view:Language is a linguistic system made up of various subsystems: phonology, morphology, lexicology and syntacx. To learn a language is to learn its vocabulary and structural rules.2) Functional view:Language is a linguistic system as well as a means for doing things. Learners learn a language in order to be able to do things with it (use it). To perform functions, learners need to know how to combine the grammatical rules and the vocabulary to express notions that perform the functions.3) Interactional view:Language is a communicative tool to build up and maintain social relations between people. Learners need to know the rules of a language and where, when and how it is appropriate to use them.1.3Views on Language LearningTwo broad learning theories：Process-oriented theories are concerned with how the mind organizes new information. Condition-oriented theories emphasize the nature of human and physical context.Behaviorist theory⏹ B. F. Skinner⏹ A stimulus-response theory of psychology⏹Audio-lingual method⏹The idea of this method is that language is learned by constant repetition and thereinforcement of the teacher. Mistakes were immediately corrected, and correct utterances were immediately praised.B.Cognitive theory⏹Influenced by Noam Chomsky (revival of structural linguistics)⏹Language as an intricate rule-based system⏹ A learner acquires language competence which enables him to produce language.⏹One influential idea of cognitive approach to language teaching is that students should beallowed to create their own sentence based on their own understanding of certain rules.C.Constructivist theory⏹Jean Piaget (1896—1980)⏹The learner constructs meaning based on his/her own experiences and what is already known.D.Socio-constructivist theory⏹Vygotsky⏹“Zone of Proximal Development” (ZPD); scaffolding(脚手架)⏹Learning is best achieved through the dynamic interaction between the teacher and the learnerand between learners.1.4 What are the qualities of a good language teacher?A good language teacher does not solely depend on his/her command of the language. There are a variety of element that contributes to the qualities of a good language teacher. These element can be categorized into three groups:ethic devotion, professional quality and personal styles.1.5 How can one become a good language teacher?☐Wallace’s (1991) ‘reflective model’ (Figure 1.1, p.9)Stage 1: language developmentStage 2: learning, practice, reflection❖The learning stage is the purposeful preparation that a language normally receives before the practice,This preparation can include:1. Learning from others’ experience2. Learning the received knowledge3. Learning from one’s own experiences❖The practice stage (2 senses)Pseudo practice: short period of time assigned to do teaching practice as part of one’spre-service education, usually under the supervision of instructorsThe real classroom teaching: what a teacher undertakes after he/she finishes formaleducation❖Teachers benefit from practice if they keep on reflecting on what they have been doingGoal: professional competenceUnit 2 Communicative Principles and Task-based language teaching2.1 How is language learned in classrooms different from language used in real life?Language used in real life Language taught in theclassroomTo perform certain communtcative functions To focus on forms (structures or patterns)Use all skills, both receptive skills and productive skills To focus on one or two language skills and ignore others.Used in a certain context To isolate language from itscontext2.2 What is communicative competence?To bridge the gap between classroom language teaching and real-life language use, one solution is to adopt CLT, the goal of which is to develop students’ communicative competence.2.2.1 Definition:Communicative competence include both the knowledge about the language and the knowledge about how to use the language appropriately in communicative situations2.2.2 Five components of communicative competence (Hedge 2000)◆Linguistic competence （语言能力）The knowledge of language itself, its form and meaning.◆Pragmatic competence （语用能力）The appropriate use of language in social context.◆Discourse competence （语篇能力）One’s ability to create coherent written text or conversation and the ability to understand them◆Strategic competence （策略能力）Strategies one employs when there is communication breakdown due to lack of resources.◆Fluency （流利性）One ‘s ability to ‘link units of speech together with facility and without strain or inappropriate slowness or undue（过分的，不适当的）hesitation’2.3Implications for teaching and learningTeaching must enable learners to grasp the five components of communicative competence, but not just the linguistic competence.2.4 Principles of CLTThree principles suggest by Richard and Rodgers：1 Communication principle：involve real communication2 Task principle：Carry out meaningful tasks3 Meaningfulness principle：Meaningful language to the learnerHowatt proposes a weak and a strong version of CLT:Weak versionLearners first acquire language as a structural system and then learn how to use it in communication.Strong version“language is acquired through communication” (Howatt, 1984:279)2.5 Major Activity Types of CLTA sequence of activities represented in Littlewood (1981: 86)Pre-communicative activities✓Structural activities✓Quasi-communicative activities类似,准,半Communicative activities (PP22-23)▪Functional communication activities▪Social interaction activities2.6 Six Criteria for evaluating communicative classroom activities(main features of communicative activities?)●Communicative purpose●Communicative desire●Content, not form●Variety of language●No teacher intervention●No materials control2.7 What is Task-based Language Teaching?TBLT is a further development of CLT. It shares the same belief in the use of language in real life, but stresses the importance to combine form-focused teaching with communication-focused teaching.2.7.1Four components of a task1. A purpose2. A context3. A process4. A product2.7.2 Exercises, exercise-tasks and tasksExercise-tasks is halfway between tasks and exercises. This kind of activity consists of contextualized practice of language item.2.8 Differences between PPP and TBLT1 The way students use and experience language in TBLT is radically different from PPP.*Free of language control*A genuine need to use language to communicate*A free exchange of ideas*Appropriateness & accuracy of language form in general, not production of a single form*A genuine need for accuracy and fluency2. TBL can provide a context for grammar teaching and form-focused activities. PPP is different in this aspect.■ A task-established context⏹Encouraged to think, analyze, not simply to repeat, manipulate and apply⏹ A more varied exposure to natural language⏹Language forms not pre-selected for focus⏹Learner-free selection of language⏹TBL cycle lead from Fluency to accuracy (+fluency)⏹In TBL Integrated skills practiced2.9 How to design tasks?Step 1 Think about students’ needs, interests, and abilitiesStep 2 Brainstorm possible tasksStep 3 Evaluate the listStep 4 Choose the language itemsStep 5 Preparing materials2.10 CLT and TBLT in the Chinese context☐Problems with CLT1. The very first and forceful argument is whether it is culturally appropriate2. The second problem of CLT relate to the design the syllabus for teaching purpose in the classroom.3. The third problem is that whether such an approach is suitable for all age level of learners or all competence level of learners.⏹Constraints of TBLT⏹The first is it may not be effective for presenting new language items⏹The second constraint is Time as teachers have to prepare task-based activities very carefully.⏹The third is the culture of learning⏹The forth is Level of difficultyUnit 33.1 A brief history of foreign language teaching in China❖ A phase of restoration (1978-1985)❖ A phase of rapid development (1986-1992)❖ A phase of reform (1993-2000)❖ A phase of innovation from 20003.2 Designing principles for the National English Curriculum1)Aim for educating all students, and emphasize quality-oriented education.2) Promote learner-centeredness, and respect individual differences.3) Develop competence-based objectives, and allow flexibility and adaptability.4) Pay close attention to the learning process, and advocate experiential learning and participation.5)Attach particular importance to formative assessment, and give special attention to the development of competence.6) Optimize learning resources, and maximize opportunities for learning and using the language.3.3 Goals and objectives of English language teachingThe new curriculum is designed to promote students’ overall language ability, which is composed of five interrelated components, namely, language skills, language knowledge, affects, learning strategies and cultural understanding. Each component is further divided into a few sub-categories. Language teaching is no longer aimed only for developing language skills and knowledge, but expanded to developing learners’ positive attitude, motivation, confidence as well as strategies for life-long learning along with cross-cultural knowledge, awareness and capabilities.The overall language ability required in the 2001 National English Curriculum includes the following aspects language knowledge, language skills, learning strategies, affects and cultural understanding.3.4 Design of the National English Curriculum3.5 The standards for different levels of competence3.6 Challenges facing English language teachers1)English language teachers are expected to change their views about language which is not a system of linguistic knowledge but a means for communication.2)English language teachers are expected to change their traditional role of a knowledge transmitter to a multi-role educator.3)English language teachers are expected to use more task-based activities and put the students at the center of learning.4)English language teachers are expected to use more formative assessment in addition to using tests.5)English language teachers are expected to use modern technology in teaching, creating more effective resources for learning and for using the language.Unit 4. Lesson Planning备课4.1 why is Lesson Planning ImportantA lesson plan is a framework of a lesson in which teachers make advance decisions about whatthey hope to achieve and how they would like to achieve it.Proper lesson plan is essential for both novice and experienced teachers. Language teachers benefit from lesson planning in a number of ways.1.Makes teachers aware of the aims and language contents of the lesson, so as to plan theactivities and choose the techniques accordingly;2.Helps teachers distinguish the various stages of a lesson and see the relationshipbetween them so that the activities of different difficulty levels can be arrangedproperly and the lesson can move smoothly from one stage to another;3.Gives teachers the opportunity to anticipate potential problems so that they can beprepared;4.Gives teachers, esp. novice ones, confidence in class;5.Raises teachers’ awareness of the teaching aids needed;6.Planning is a good practice and a sign of professionalism.Teachers benefit from proper lesson plans in a number of other ways:☐To enable the teacher to improve class timing;☐Lesson plans are also an aid to continuing development(plan←-→practice ←-→reflection)4.2 Principles for Good Lesson Planning1.Aim: the realistic goals for the lesson; what students are able to do by the end of thelesson;2.Variety: different types of activities; a wide selection of materials;3.Flexibility: preparing some extra and alternative tasks and activities4.Learnability: the contents and tasks planned should be within the learning capabilityof the studentsDoing things that are beyond or below the students’ coping ability will diminish theirmotivation (Schumann, 1999)5.Linkage: the stages and the steps within each stage are linked with one another.4.3 what are macro planning and micro planning?Macro planningPlanning over a long period of time which is often done by a group of teachers, it provides a general guidance for language teachersMicro planningPlanning for a specific unit or a lesson, which usually lasts from one to two weeks or forty to fifty minutes respectively. Micro planning is often an individual activity and different teachers may have different ways of writing their own lesson plans.❑Macro planning involves the following：Knowing about the professionKnowing about the institutionKnowing about the learnersKnowing about the curriculum/syllabusKnowing about the textbookKnowing about the objectivesA lesson plan usually has the following components:➢Background information➢Teaching aims➢Teaching content and skills➢Stages and procedures➢Teaching aids➢End of lesson summary➢Optional activities and Assignment➢After lesson reflectionUnit 5 Classroom Management5.1 What is classroom management?有助于)interacting in English in meaningful ways (Gebhard, 1996).Efficient classroom management can be achieved when the following six conditions are met.1.The teacher plays appropriate roles.2.The teacher provides clearer instructions.3.Students are grouped in a way suitable for the learning activities.4.There is discipline as well as harmony in the class.5.The teacher asks appropriate questions.6.The students’ errors are treated properly5.2 What roles does the teacher play?1.Controller (what to learn; how to learn)2.Assessor (correcting mistakes; organizing feedback)aniser (students’ activities)4.Prompter (when ss don’t know what to do…)5.Participant (in ss’ activities)☐⏹Create a positive learning environment, use various strategies to motivate learners, guide☐⏹acknowledge and respect individual differences; give each equal opportunity in learning;-round perspective…☐⏹Observe a problem, reflect on the reasons, think about possible solutions, implement thesolutions and evaluate the results…Q: How much control is needed?⏹Appropriate degree of control⏹Different activities need a different degrees of control.⏹The more communicative an activity, the less control it needs.Q: What does the teacher do as an assessor?1.Correcting mistakes⏹The correcting should be gentle, not harsh.anizing feedback⏹The feedback should be focused on students’ success or progress so that a success-orientedlearning atmosphere can be created.Q: How to organise?⏹Before the activity: what the activity is going to be like, anticipated problems; clearinstructions given to students (with T’s demonstration)⏹During the activity: overhear what the students are saying, rectify wrong practices; take notesfor later feedbackQ: When to prompt?⏹When students are not sure how to start an activity, or what to do next, or what to say next…⏹When a student doesn’t seem to be ready for an answer,…⏹When a student finishes with a very short answer,…Q: why to participate in student’s activities?⏹Monitoring + participating changes the role from an authority to a conversationalist, agood chance for students to practise English with a superior…Q: What do you think of the jug-and-mug metaphor?Although the jug-and-mug method has been widely criticised, the teacher is still considered a good and convenient resource for the students.”5.3 How to give effective classroom instructions?Classroom instructions refer to the type of language teachers use to organize or guide learning.1.To use simple instructions and make them suit the comprehension level of the students;2.To use the mother-tongue only when it is necessary;3.Give students time to get used to listening to English instructions;e body language to assist understanding;5.Model the task/activity before letting students into groups or pairs…6.Teachers are not expected to do all the talking in class.Tip: Demonstration is usually more effective than words.5.4 What are the different ways for student grouping?⏹Whole class work, pair work, group work, individual study1.Whole class work☐All the students are under the control of the teacher, doing the same activity at the same rhythm and pace.2.Pair work☐Students work in pairs on an exercise or task.3.Group work☐Students work in small groups of 3-5 students.4.Individual study☐Students work on their own at their own speed.Q: How to group? (Grouping methods)1.Whole class work is normally used when presenting and explaining new language or newinformation and it should be used wisely by the teachers.2.Successful group/pair work depends on skillful organization.3.The biggest problem for group work is the selection of group members.4.While teachers are encourage to use pair wok and group work to provide more practice chance,individual study should not be forgotten.Types of student grouping and their advantages and disadvantages in P314 (task4)5.5 Discipline in the language classroomQ: What does discipline mean?Discipline refers to a code of conduct which binds a teacher and a group of students together so that learning can be more effective. (78)Q: Does discipline guarantee effective learning?☐No. There might be little learning even the class is very disciplined.☐Although discipline is necessary, it is not a sufficient condition for effective learning as a thoroughly indisciplined atmosphere will surely yield no learning at all. (79)Q: How to maintain discipline?P.79Although discipline is often discussed together with classroom management, Classroom management skills are not sufficient if discipline is to be achieved，rather，a variety of teacher’s behavior contribute to discipline, such as the teacher’s choice of methodology, their interpersonal relationships with students, their preparation for the lesson. Beside, student’s motivation, which can be enhanced by the teacher action, is extremely important for discipline.When students are engaged in learning, they will be disciplined. (79)☐Ss are clear about learning purpose;☐Ss are able to do the work but find it challenging;☐Ss are emotionally, physically and intellectually involved by the tasks;☐The presentation, variety and structure of the work and activities generate curiosity and interest;☐Ss have opportunities to ask questions and try out ideas;☐Ss can see what they have achieved and how they had made progress;☐Ss get a feeling of satisfaction and enjoyment from the work.Q: What causes discipline problems?⏹ A gap in the lesson (e.g. bad planning, equipment fails to work)⏹Unclear instructions⏹Lack of teacher attention⏹The teacher concentrates on lengthy explanations to one individual so that the others get bored ⏹Work is too easy or too challengingQ: What measures can we take for undisciplined acts and badly behaving students?☐Harmer (1983) p.811.Act immediately.2.Stop the class.3.Rearrange the seats.4.Change the activity.5.Talk to students after class.6.Create a code of behavior.⏹Ur’s (1996) advice1.Deal with it quietly.2.Don’t take things personally.3.Don’t use threats.5.6 How to make questioning more effective?☐Questions should be closely linked to the learning objectives in the lesson;☐Questions should be staged so that the level of challenge increases as the lesson proceeds;☐There should be a balance between closed and open, lower-order and higher-order questions;☐Wait time is important to allow students to think through their answers;☐Ss should be provided opportunities to ask their own questions and seek their own answers;☐ A secure and relaxed atmosphere of trust is needed and ss’ opinions and ideas are valued. 5.6.2 What types of questions are there?( Classification of questions)1.Closed and open questions;2.Display and genuine questions;3.Lower-order and high-order questions;4.Bloom’s taxonomy分类系统(Nuttall, 1982)①Knowledge②Comprehension③Application④Analysis⑤Synthesis⑥Evaluation5.7 Dealing with errorsQ: What are errors? How are they different from mistakes?☐ A mistake refers to “a performance error that is either a random guess or a ‘slip of tongue’, and it is a failure performance to a known system” (Brown, 2000: 218-219)☐An error has direct relation with the learner’s language competence. Errors do not result from carelessness nor hesitation, but lack of knowledge in the target language.☐ A mistake can be self-corrected; an error cannot be.Q: How to deal with errors?☐In dealing with errors and mistakes we need to be clear whether the task or activity is focusing on accuracy or fluency.Q: When to correct errors?☐Generally, it is best not to interrupt students during fluency work unless communication breaks down.☐Let a trivial mistake pass if most of the language is right.☐For some common mistakes, take a note in mind first and correct after the student’s performance.Q: How to correct errors?☐Different ways and techniques:⏹Direct teacher correction⏹Indirect teacher correction⏹Self-correction⏹Peer correction⏹Whole class correctionQ: Which techniques to use?☐As a general rule, indirect teacher correction is encouraged rather than direct ones to avoid damaging ss’ self-esteem and confidence.☐In practice, self-correction is encouraged before teacher correction or peer correction, esp. for mistakes.☐The whole class correction is used for main error types (e.g.The Big Ten) Summary1.Roles of the teacher: controller, assessor, organiser, prompter, participant, resource-provider, facilitator,guide, researcher, etc.2.Classroom instructions: simple; suit the level of students3.Grouping: whole class work, group work, pair work, individual study4.Discipline: to engage ss in learning; how to maintain discipline, how to treat with undisciplined acts5.Questioning: different classifications; questioning techniques6.Error correction: error and mistake; different ways and techniques for correcting errorsUnit 6 Teaching PronunciationCritical Period Hypothesis: a biologically determined period of life when language can be acquired more easily and beyond which time language is increasing difficult to acquire.6.1 The role of pronunciation☐DebateSide A: students do not need to learn pronunciation because pronunciation will take care of itself as the students develop overall language ability.Side B: Failure in pronunciation is a great hindrance to language learning.Views of teaching pronunciation vary☐The Learners who have more exposure to English need less focus on pronunciation than those who only learn English in the class.☐Adult learners need more focus on pronunciation because they are more likely to substitute English sounds with sounds from their native language.☐The teaching of pronunciation should focus on the ss’ ability to identify and produce English sounds themselves. (pronunciation vs. phonetics)☐Ss should not be led to focus on reading and writing phonetic transcripts of words, esp. for young students.☐Phonetic rules are helpful for ss to develop ability to cope with English pronunciation and they should be introduced at a suitable stage.☐Stress and intonation are important and should be taught from the very beginning.6.2 The goal of teaching pronunciationThe goal of teaching pronunciation is not to teach learners to achieve a perfect imitation of a native accent, but simply to get the learners to pronounce accurately enough to be easily and comfortably comprehensible to other speakers.The realistic goals of teaching pronunciation is as following:☐Consistency: the pronunciation should be smooth and natural;☐Intelligibility: the pronunciation should be understandable to the listeners;☐Communicative efficiency: the pronunciation should help convey the meaning that is intended by the speaker.6.3 What aspects of pronunciation do we need to teach?Pronunciation is an umbrella term covering many aspects, beside sound and phone symbols, such as stress, intonation, and rhythm, of course ,these aspects are not isolated from each other, rather, they are interrelated.Q: How to achieve good pronunciation?☐Practice makes perfect☐Both mechanical practice and meaningful practice are beneficial.6.4 Practising sounds(List some methods of practicing sounds. )Mechanical drilling is boring and demotivating; it is important to combine drilling pronunciation exercises with more meaningful exercises that focus on whatever aspect of pronunciation is the focus of the lesson.Focus on a soundFocus on a individual sounds especially those sound that are difficult to learnPerception practice☐What is the goal of perception practice?⏹Developing the students’ ability to identify and distinguish between different sounds.☐Examples of perception practice:⏹Using minimal pairs (with one sound difference): will/well; ship/sheep; light/night⏹Which order: bear, tear, ear⏹Same or different? [met], [mi:t]⏹Odd one out⏹CompletionProduction practiceThe goal of production practice is developing students’ ability to produce sounds.1.Listen and repeat ( practice individual sounds, individual words, groups of words,sentences (mechanical imitation)2.Fill in the blanks (in sentences with words which contain certain sounds).3.Make up sentences (using as many from the given words as possible).e meaningful context (to perform meaningful tasks such as role-play).e pictures (to produce meaningful language).e tongue twisters (to practice pronunciation).6.5 Practising stress and intonation☐Two types of stress:⏹word-level stress☐It is very important to stress the proper syllable in multi-syllabic words.☐The best strategy is to emphasize the importance of learning the stress as part of learning a word.⏹Phrase-level or sentence-level stress☐Each phrase or sentence has one syllable which receives greater or more prominent stress than the others.☐Some phrases or sentences may have one stressed syllable, while others may have 5-6 stressed syllables.6.5.1 Teaching methods of stress⏹The most important thing in practising stress is making the students aware of where tostress the words or phrases.e gestures (e.g. clapping hands; using arm movements)e the voice (raise the voice to indicate stress)e the blackboard (underline the stress parts or write with colored chalks。

An overview of the book《英语教学法教程(第二版)》讲义《英语教学法教程(第二版)》讲义allowed us the opportunity to expand the original 14 units into 18 in order to include topics reflecting the recent development in English language teaching both at home and abroad, to revisit a number ofareas, to expand and clarify points that we felt were not sufficiently clear in thefirst edition, and to improve the pedagogical usefulness of the text.1.2课后习题详解TASK1Below is a list of interview questions on how people learn a foreign language. In the first column, write down your own responses. Then interview three other students in your class and enter their responses in the other columns. Discuss yourYou ST1 ST2 ST31. How many foreign languages can you speak SO far?2. When did you start learning the foreign language(s)?3. How do you feel about learning a foreign language?4. What difficulties have you experienced in learning?5 • Which skills do you find more difficult to learn?6. Have you focused on knowledge or skills? Why?7. Why do you learn the foreign language(s)?8. Do you consider yourself a successful learner? Why?9• What are your most common learning activities?10. Do you like the way you learned the foreign language(s)?TASK 2Work in groups of 4, brainstorm possible answers to the question: What is language? When you are ready, join another group and share your ideas.Key: Here are sample definitions of “language” found in dictionaries and linguistics books.•Language is a system of arbitrary, vocal symbols which permit all people in a given culture, or other people who have learned the system of that culture, to communicate or to interact. (Finocchiaro, 1964:8)•Language is any set or system of linguistic symbols as used in a more or less uniform fashion by a number of people who are thus enabled to communicate intelligibly with one another. (Random House Dictionary of the English Language 1966:806)•Language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication. (Wardhaugh, 1972:3)•Language is a systematic means of communicating ideas or feelings by the use of conventionalized signs, sounds, gestures, or marks having understood meanings. (Webster’s 3rd New International Dictionary of the English Language 1993:1270)•Language is a system of communication consisting of a set of small parts and a set of rules which decide the ways in which these parts can be combined to produce messages that have meaning. (Cambridge International Dictionary of English 1995:795)TASK 3Work in groups of 4. Brainstorm the answers to the two questions stated above.When you are ready, join another group and share your ideas.Key: Generally speaking, psycholinguistic and cognitive process involved in language learning are concerned with how the mind organizes new information such as habit formation, induction, making inference, hypothesis Resting and generalization. To activate these learning process, atmosphere is very important.《英语教学法教程(第二版)》讲义TASK 4Work in groups. Reflect on your own learning experiences from early school years to the university. Have you had an excellent English teacher? Try to identify as many qualities as possible of your best English teacher(s). Note down all the qualities that you think are important for a good English teacher.Key: ethic devotion(responsible, warm-hearted, etc), professional qualities(an excellent command of English) and personal styles(enthusiastic, humourous,etc) jointly contribute to making a good teacher.TASK 5Ethic devotion, professional qualities and personal styles jointly contribute to the making of a good English teacher. All the adjectives in the box below could be used to characterize these three aspects.1.Work in groups of 4 and decide which adjectives describe ethic devotion, which describe personal styles and which describe professional qualities. Please write your answers on a separate piece of paper.2.Add any adjectives to the list which describe farther qualities that you feel are missing.3.These adjectives are intended to describe positive qualities or styles. Do you feel that any of them could have a negative side as well? If yes, in what way? For example, an authoritative teacher may make the students feel assured, but may also make the student less free to disagree with him / her.kind; dynamic; authoritative; hardworking; creative; patient well-informed; fair resourceful; attentive; warm-hearted; reflective; well-prepared; flexible; intuitive accurate; enthusiastic; humourous; caring; disciplined; professionally-trainedKey: Students’TASK 6Work in pairs and discuss how one can become a professionally competent teacher of English. For example, we have to develop our English proficiency first and also we may need to learn from experienced teachers through observations. What else can you think of? Make a list and then pool all your ideas together to find out about your common beliefs.Key: to learn teaching theory；to practice teaching skills；to reflect teaching experience；to learn from one’s own experiences as a learner.TASK 7Work in groups. Discuss possible answers to the following questions in relation to the model presented in Figure IA, _1.Why are stage 1 and stage 2 interrelated by a double arrow line?2.Why are practice and reflection connected by a circle?3.Why is professional competence *a moving target or horizon, towards which professionals travel all their professional lifebut which is never finally attained?54.Where should a TEFL methodology course fill in the model?Figure 1.1Key: 1. Stages 1 and 2 are interrelated by a double arrow line because neither of the two stages is really ever terminated. Teachers should always make a point of updating their command of English because language is always changing. This can be done while they are teaching, but very often teachers take off to have farther training in English. This is especiallyimportant for teachers who do not have enough exposure to English.2.Practice and reflection are connected by a circle because they are neither independent or separate sub-stages. Teachers do not teach one week and then reflect one week. Rather, they teach and reflect on a day to day basis.3.This is because it is believed no one can ever become a perfectly competent language teacher. There is always room for improvement. There is always something better, but never something best.4.TEFL methodology is probably the deceived knowledge” located in the second stage.第2章交际教学原则与任雜语言教学2.1复习笔记本章着重讨论交际教学原则和任务型教学思想并介绍相关的教学基本概念以及交际教学和任务型教学活动。
EnglishTeaching英语教学法教程期末考试必考的知识点
Teaching grammarGrammar teaching depends on certain variables(learner and ins t ructional ) in the language teaching/learning context Grammar presentation methods-deductive method: relies on reasoning, analyzing and comparingteaching procedure:teacher’s example on the board,teacher’s explanation of the rules (in student’s native language),student’s practice application of the rules.Advantages:good for selected and motivate students;save time to explain complex rules;increase stude nts’ confidence in examination.Disadvantages:grammar is taught isolated ly;little attention is paid to meaning;the practice is often mechanical -inductive method:teaching procedure;authentic language presentation(give grammar examples);let students observe,analyse,compare examples;help students induct grammar rules,Advantages:inspire students’ thinking activities;motivate students’ learning interests;grammar is taught in context.Disadvantages:the presentation of grammar is more complex and time consumption;grammar is not taught directly;some rules can not be induced easily-guided discovery method: Similar to the inductive method:the students are induced to discover rules by themselves (similar);the process of the discovery is carefully guided and assisted by the teacher and the rules are then elicited and taught explicitly.(different) Implicit and explicit knowledge:Implicit knowledge refers to knowledge that unconsciously exists in our mind, which we can make use of automatically without making any effort;Explicit knowledge refers to our conscious knowledge about the language. We can talk about it, analyse it and apply it in conscious ways.Learning and acquiring (second language acquisition theory)The synthesis approaches to grammatical pedagogy:Collocational: grammar should be built on collocational relations between individual lexical items and their subcategories. Constructive: one’s knowledge of grammar is built bit by bit, which closely model the way language is learned and used. Contextual: Elements and structures are taught in relation to their context. Syntactic and lexical choices are explicitly related to pragmatic ones, and to social and cultural contexts.Contrastive: grammar involves drawing the learner’s attention to contrast the differences between the target language and other language.Grammar practice:Pre-learning;Volume and repetition:Success-orientation.Heterogeneity .Teacher assistance.Interest 1.Mechanical practice:activities that are aimed at form accuracy.By doing mechanical practice,students pay repeated attention to a key element in a structure.form of practice:Substitution and transformation drills2. Meaningful practice the focus is on the production, comprehension or exchange of meaning though the students “keep an eye on” the way newly learned structures are used in the process.ing prompts for practice:The prompts can be pictures, mimes, tables, charts or key words, etc.A good presentation should include both oral and written and form and meaning Visual materials can aid comprehensionIt’s the teacher’s involvement and his or her ability to personalise teaching and make activities engaging that often promotes successful learning.Teaching vocabularyThe first question need to know is what does knowing a word involve.A word:knowing its pronunciation and stress; spelling and grammatical properties; meaning; how and when to use it to express the intended meaning (freestanding and bound morphine)Vocabulary learning involves ate least two aspects of meaning: the understanding of its denotative and connotative meaning; and understanding the sense relations among wordsDenotative meaning of a word or a lexical item refers to those words that we use to label things as regards real objects Connotative meaning of a word refers to ‘the attitudes or emotion s of a language user in choosing a word and the influence of these on the listener or reader’s interpretation of the word. This words that may express a positive or negative attitude or subtle feelings toward something.Collocations refers to words that co-occur with high frequency and have been accepted as ways for the use of words. It is believed that teaching word collocations is a more effective way than just teaching one single word at a time.Synonyms refer to items that mean the same, or nearly the same.Antonyms refer to items that mean the opposite of a word. Hyponyms refer to words which can be grouped together under the same superordinate conceptReceptive and Productive vocabularyPassive vocabulary: the words they know.Active vocabulary: the words they useSo the job for the teacher is to guide the students to those words which will help them to add to their active vocabularies, and to distinguish those words from the much larger number of passive items. At the beginning of language learning, all the words which are taught must be acquired for active use, later, at intermediate and advanced levels, most of the words students meet will only be needed for passive use.Ways of consolidating vocabulary:labelling,spot the difference,descibe and draw,play a game,use word series,word bingo,word association,find a synonyms and antonym,categories,using word net-work,using the Internet resources for some ideasDeveloping vocabulary building strategies:review regularly,guess meaning from context, Organize vocabulary effectively,using a dictionary,manage strategy useTeaching listeningListening problems:lack of teaching materials,both with print materials and audio or video tapes,lack of equipment in some schools;lack of real-life situations:lack of professional qualified instructorsA number of people have frequently made the point that of the total time an individual is engaged in communication: approximately 9% is devoted to writing, 16% to reading, 30% to speaking,45% to listeningListening and reading are receptive skills, but listening can be more difficult than reading.Different speakers produce the same sounds in different waysThe listener has little or no control over the speed of the input of spoken material;Spoken material is often heard only once and in most cases，we cannot go back and listen again as we can when we read;The listener cannot pause to work out the meaning of the heard material as can be done when reading;Speech is more likely to be distorted by the media which transmit sounds or background noise that can make it difficult to hear clearly; The listener sometimes has to deal simultaneously with another task while listening, such as formal note-taking, writing down directions or messages from telephone calls, or operating while listening to instructions.Characteristics of the listening process,formal or informal?rehearsed or non-rehearsed?can the listener interact with the speaker or not?Listening characteristics:Spontaneity,Context,visual clues,listener’s response,speaker’s adjustmen tListening purpose:for social reasons,to obtain and exchange informationPrinciples and models of teaching listeningFocus on process:(they have to hear what is being said,they have to pay attention and construct a meaningful message in their mind by rela ting what they hear to what they already know;it’s also possible to hear people talking without paying attention;we also know that if we don’t have enough previous knowledge of what is being said,it’s more difficult to make sense of what is said)Combine listening with other skills;Focus on the comprehension of meaning;Grade difficulty level appropriately Designing listening activity:give a clear purpose, a specific task,an appropriate context for doing themBottom-up model:Listening comprehension is believ ed to start with sound and meaning recognitions.In other words,‘we use information in the speech itself to try to comprehend the meaning’Listeners construct meaning of what they hear based on the sound they hear.Top-down model:listening for gist and making use of the contextual clues and background knowledge to construct meaning are emphasised.In other words,listening comprehension involves ‘knowledge that a listener brings to a text,sometimes called ‘inside the head’ information,as opposed to the informat ion that is available within the text itself’ In such a case,listeners can understand better if they know something about the speaker,the setting,the topic and the purpose of the talk.prior knowledge or schematic knowledge—mental frameworks for various things and experience we hold in our long-term memoryPre-listening activities:aim to motivate students,to activate their prior knowledge,and to teach key words or key sentences to the students before listening begins predicting,setting the scene,listening for the gist and specific informationWhile-listening:no specific responses,listen and tick,listen and sequence,listen and act,listen and draw,listen and fill,listen and take notesPost-listening:multiple-choice questions,answering questions,note-taking and gap-filling ,dictogloss(preparation dictation reconstruction analysis and correction)Integrate listening with the practice of other language skills,role play,debate,discussion,writing backTeaching speakingSpeech characteristic:spontaneous,full of false starts repetitions incomplete sentences short phrases time-constraintspoken languages features:Using less complex syntax;Taking short cuts,(incomplete sentences);Using fixed conventional phrases/ chunks. Using devices such as fillers, hesitation device to give time to think before speaking. Both learners and teachers need to learn to accept repetitions,rephrase,hesitations,incomplete sentences,fillers or pauses.th is doesn’t mean we don’t encourage fluent speaking.In training students’speaking skills,features of natural speech should be accepted.this doesn’t only have implication for teaching speaking but also for assessing speaking.Encourage students to speak up is the first and most important task Principles:Balancing accuracy-based with fluency-based practices, Contextualising practice, Personalising practice, Building up confidence, Maximising meaningful interactions, Helping students develop speaking strategiesDesigning speaking tasks:meaningful motivation linguistically appropriate cognitively challengeMaximum foreign talk even participation high motivation right language levelPre-communicative activities :structural,quasi-communicative Communicative activities :Functional communicative and Social interactionRole-play :perform in different moods,change different role relationship,actual word can be varied,make the dialogue longerLearners should be helped move from form to using what is learned in meaningful communicationThe problem is not having nothing to say but lacking the opportunity to say itTeaching readingReading aloud and silent reading:Reading aloud cannot replace silent reading as it involves only the skills of pronunciation and intonation.Real reading ability re-quires the reading skills of skimming, scanning, predictingEffective reading:clear purpose in reading; read silently; read phrase by phrase,rather than word by word; concentrate on the important bits,skim the rest,and skip the insignificant parts; use different speeds and strategies for different reading tasks; perceive the information in the target language rather than mentally translate; guess the meaning of new words from the context,or ignore them; use background information to help understand the text.Reading comprehension means extracting the relevant information from the text as efficiently as possible,connecting the information from written message with one’s own knowledge to arrive at an understanding (construction of meaning from printed or written messa ge) Two broad levels in reading:1) a recognition task of perceiving visual signals from the printed page through the eyes;2) a cognitive task of interpreting the visual information,relating the receive information with reader’s own knowledge Vocabulary role:efficient reading begins with a lightening-like automatic recognition of word.this initial process of accurate,rapid and automatic recognition of vocabulary frees one’s mind to use other resources(reasoning abilities,,knowledge about topic)to con struct meaningSight vocabulary:you can recognise with both sounds and meanings without special effort from your brainFluent reading depends on an adequate sight vocabulary,a general knowledge about the target language, some knowledge about the topic, wide knowledge about the world and enough knowledge about text types.Teaching model:bottom-up model top-down model interactive modelPre-reading:pooling existing knowledge about the topic;predicting the contents of the text,skimming and scanning the text or parts of the text for certain purpose;learning key words and structures(predicting setting the scene skimming scanning)While reading: Information presented in plain text form is not facilitative for information retentionThe way to transfer information from one form to another is called a transition deviceReading comprehension questionsQuestions for literal comprehension.directly and explicitly available in the ually answered in the words of the text itself. Questions involving reorganization or reinterpretation.obtain literal information from various parts and put it to-gether or reinterpretQuestions for inferences. This type of questions require students to consider what is implied but not explicitly stated.Questions for evaluation or appreciation.most sophisticated ques-tions which involve making a judgment about the text in terms of what the writer is trying to convey.Questions for personal response. The answers to these questions depend most on the reader’s reaction to the content of the text.Post-reading:discussion questions,reproducing the text,role play,gap-filling,discussion,retelling,writingThe teaching of reading should focus on developing students’reading skills and strategies and on maintaining students’motivat ion for readingTeaching writingWriting purpose:get things done and to form;maintain social relationships;give a voice for shy students;less threatening for anxious students as it gives them to think about their meaning and purpose;raise awareness of how language worksA communicative approach to writing:Writing for learning”and “writing for communication”Sense of authenticity and audience motivation for writing purpose for writing proper procedures for writingProblems in writing tasks：They are mainly accuracy-based.They are designed to practise a certain target structures.There is insufficient preparation before the writing stage.There is no sense of audience and authenticity.Students are given ideas to express rather than being invited to invent their own.There is no opportunity for creative writing, particular for expressing unusual or original ideas.Many of them are test-oriented.The important point is that they are given the freedom to write about themselves rather than to write what they are told to write and therefore what they write should be more meaningful and communicativeA process approach to writing: creating a motivation to write, brainstorming, mapping, freewriting, outlining, drafting, editing, revising, proofreading and conferencing.Motivating students to write.1.make the topic of writing as close as possible to students’ life.leave students enough room for creativity and imagination. prepare students well before writing. encourage collaborative group writing as well as individual writing. provide opportunities for students to share their writings. provide constructive and positive feedback.treat students’ errors strategically. give students a sense of achievement from time to time.We have emphasized that the teaching of writing should focus on the process rather than the product, and that all the writing tasks should have communicative purposesSummative assessment is mainly based on testing,it’s done mostly at the end of a learnin g period or a school year Formative assessment is based on information collected in the classroom during the teaching process for the purpose of improving teaching and learningTeacher’s observations continuous assessment student’s self-assessment project work portfolios。

英语教学法教程知识点归纳
英语教学法教程知识点归纳Unit 1Knowledge:sth that can be learnedSkills:sth that only can be gained through practice or training, Language skills:listening, speaking, reading and writingLanguage is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication。
Views on language：1、Structural view （language competence）—The founder：Saussure—The structural view of language sees language as a linguistic system made up of various subsystems：1、the sound system（phonology）2、sound combinations（morphology）3、meaning for communication（syntax）—Learning the language is to learn the structural items，study the inner structure and rule of language，ignore the social functions of the language。
2 、Functional view—Representative：Johnson、marrow、swain canal (the core: grammar)—The function view not only sees language as a linguistic system but also a means for doing things—Learners learn a language in order to be able to doing things with itUse the linguistic structure to express functions3、Interactional view （communicative competence）—Emphasis：appropriateness—Language is a communicative tool，which main use is to build up and maintain social relations between people—Learners need to know the rules for using the language in certain context—The structural view limits knowing a language to knowing its structural rules and vocabularyLanguage teacher qualifications：1、a good command of spoken and written language2、formulate theory presupposition3、language background and experience4、know how languages are learnt5、the ability to use methods in various situations6、deep understanding of cultural background7、understanding the principles of teachingThese elements can be categorized into three groups：ethic devotion，professional qualities and personal stylesView on language learning1. Psycholinguistic: the relationship between language and thinking.1)Thinking in language2)Language is necessary for thought.3)Language acquisition(语言习得)4)Learners in their earlier years acquire control over essential structure of their languagewithout special teaching and learning in a effortless and almost an unconscious way (like the formation of a habit) people prefer first language acquisition to first language learning.2.Cognitive theory: the rule for people to aware to cognize sth.Cognitive processes:Process: input----absorb----outputLanguage learning is not just stimulate-reflection, but theusing of oursubjective capabilities, the using of our cognitive ability to think the language and studying it actively.3. Constructivist theory: learning is a process of meaning construction based on learner?s own knowledge and experience.S ----------AT------------R(刺激) (反应)Stimulus: assimilatio n ①and accommodatio n②①把外部知识纳入自身②纳入自身后也不相符，就要对原有知识进行改变，也就是一种原有知道和外部知识保持联系的创新的过程。
英语教学法教程(第二版)Unit2要点
Unit 2Communicative Language Teaching⏹The goal of CLT is to develop students’ communicative competence , which includes both the knowledge about the language and the knowledge about how to use the language appropriately in communicative situations(knowledge of what to say, when, how, where, and to whom).Five main components of communicative competence⏹Linguistic competence: knowledge of the language itself, its form and meaning (spelling, pronunciation, vocabulary, word formation, grammatical structure, sentence structure, semantics)⏹Pragmatic competence: the appropriate use of the language in social context (the choice of the vocabulary and structure depends on the setting, the relative status of the speakers and their relationships.)⏹Discourse competen ce: one’s ability to create coherent written text or conversation and the ability to understand them.(to express or to understand a topic logically and coherently by effectively employing or comprehending the cohesive markers used in the discourse)Five main components of communicative competence⏹Strategic competence : one’s ability to compensate for thecommunication breakdown due to lack of resources by searching for other means of expression, such as using a similar phrase, using gestures, or using a longer explanation.⏹Fluency: one’s ability to link units of speech together with facility and without strain or inappropriate slowness or undue hesitationPrinciples of CLT⏹Communication principle: activities that involve real communication promote learning⏹Task principle: activities in which language is used for carrying out meaningful tasks promote learning⏹Meaningfulness principle: language that is meaningful to the learner supports the learning processThe teaching of language skills in CLT⏹Listening & speaking: students should have the chance to listen to and produce what is meaningful, authentic, unpredictable, and creative if possible.⏹Reading: the purpose of reading is focused. Reading is to extract meaning or information (the learning of grammar and vocabulary is to facilitate such a process)⏹Writing: students should practice writing what people write in everyday life and writing in the way people write in reality.Learner roles within CLT⏹Learner acts as negotiator (between the self, the learning process, and the object of learning) when he/she interacts within the group and within the classroom procedures and activities which the group undertakes.⏹Learner should contribute as much as he gains, and learn in an interdependent way.Teacher roles within CLT⏹Organizer: to facilitate the communication process between all participants in he classroom, and between these participants and the various activities and texts⏹Learner and researcher: to act as an independent participant within the learning-teaching group.⏹Needs Analyst: to respond to learner language needsTeacher roles within CLT⏹Counselor: to maximize the meshing(配合）of speaker intention and hearer interpretation, through the use of paraphrase, confirmation, and feedback.⏹Group process manager: organize the classroom as a setting for communication and communicative activities. During an activity the teacher monitors, encourages learners but suppress the inclination to supply gaps in words, grammar, and strategy but notes such gaps for later commentary. At the conclusion of group activities, the leads in thedebriefing(汇报）of the activity, pointing out alternatives and extensions and assisting groups in self-correction discussion.Six criteria for evaluating communicative classroom activities⏹Communicative purpose⏹Communicative desire⏹Content, not form⏹Variety of language⏹No teacher intervention⏹No materials controlTask-based Language Teaching⏹Four components of a task:⏹A purpose: ensure that students have a reason for undertaking the task⏹A context：location, participants, relationships, time … (can be real, simulated or imaginary )⏹A process: getting the students to use learning strategies(problem solving, reasoning, inquiring, etc.) to use appropriate words,sentence structures,etc.⏹A product: visible(a written plan, a play, a letter) or invisible(enjoying a story, learning about another country, etc.) Procedures of TBLT⏹Pre-task⏹introduction to⏹topic and task⏹Task cycle⏹Task Planning Report⏹Language Focus⏹Analysis and practice characteristics of TBLT⏹1.Interactive principles. Students communicate with each other in target language, and then acquire this language;⏹nguage materials are close to real life. Student learn in the environment which is real and natural;⏹3.Focusing on both the result and process. It provides students with the chances for both language that they are learning and the learning process;⏹4.Stressing on personal experience. Students' own experience and feeling about learning language can promote the effectiveness of class;⏹5.Relative principles. It aims to connect the in-class learning andout-class one.Advantages of TBLT⏹Exposure to rich but comprehensible input of real language, ie the kind of language that learners will be needing or wishing to understand and use themselves.(Exposure and input come from teacher talk(esp. during the pre-task phase and when reviewing language analysis), students listening to each other, reading the texts or listening to recordings of others doing the task.⏹This input is not confined to sentence level examples, but consists of real, often spontaneous language use.⏹Opportunities for real use of language---chances for learners to experiment and test hypothesis, to mean what they say and express what they mean in a variety of circumstances.⏹TBLT framework gives students opportunities to use language to express what they want to say, to gain practice in turn-taking, controlling the interaction, interacting spontaneously in pairs. The Report phase then offers them the challenge of drafting and perfecting their report for a wider audience. The Planning stage gives students the confidence and support they need before they actually perform in public.⏹Motivation to listen and read, ie to process the exposure for meaning; and also to use the language , to speak and write.⏹Focus on language--- Report and Analysis phaseSimilarities between CLT and TBLT⏹1. Design Principles⏹Communication Principle⏹The Authenticity Principle⏹Learning by Doing Principle⏹2. Teaching Forms⏹role play and group discussionDifferences between CLT and TBLT⏹CLT pays more attention to the process of communication. It has not a certain purpose and the result of it is not important.⏹However, TBLT stresses on purpose and result. A task must have a clear purpose.。
