寓情于教，以情促教--以情感带动英语课堂教学

情感既是英语教学的手段,也是英语教学的目的,起着激发、推动、引导和调节学生学习活动的动力作用。教学进程中情感及其渗透力量的强弱直接影响英语教学的成败。因此,在英语课堂教学中要加强师生情感交流,正确利用情感因素的积极作用促进英语教学。     

创设情感环境,改善教学效果

正课堂教学是一种透明的艺术,它既是一个认识过程,也是情感活动过程,两者相辅相成,互相促进。学生在数学学习活动中的情感,反映了学生在认识过程中的精神世界和个性差异,情感在诸多非智力因素中占据了重要的地位,情感是教学过程中的润滑剂、催化剂。针对情感教育的重要性及提高课堂效率状况,我认为加强数学课堂的情感教育是提高课堂效率的法宝。爱孩子是一名教师必须具备的情感。教师对学生的真诚关爱一定能     

创造英语教学的意境美

创造英语教学意境美是教育发展的要求.在美的教学环境中,教师通过揭示教学内容中蕴含的思想美、情感美、艺术美,以各种手段去激发学生的情感,使教师、学生,教学内容、手段和教学环境之间达到和谐统----这就是英语教学美的意境.     

架起通向诗人心灵的桥——谈情感因素在语文教学中的作用

情感因素在语文教学尤其是诗歌教学中起着十分重要的作用。作者以《涉江》的教学过程为例,具体分析了情感在帮助学生理解课文主要内容、思想内涵及产生与作家的情感共鸣等方面发挥的重要作用。     

心理调节在声乐教学中的作用

本文从三个方面阐述心理调节在声乐教学中的作用。 一、感觉与知觉在教学中的作用。二、思维和想象在教学中的作用。三、情感在声乐教学中的作用。 马腊费奥迪说:“心理学是声乐艺术的真正灵魂。”伊·卡·那查连柯也曾说:“歌唱是高级心理活动现象之一。” 人的心理现象十分复杂,心理学将其划分为心理过程(含认知过程、情感过程与意志过程)和个性心理两部分。影响声乐教学的心理因素很多,本文根据自己的教学实践,从认识过程与情感过程两方面谈谈心理调节在声乐教学中的作用。     

高中英语课堂教学有效性的探究

课堂教学的有效性是指通过课堂教学使学生在学习知识与技能过程中,实现情感、态度与价值观三者的协调发展。如何提高教师课堂教学的有效性,这既是提升英语教学质量的关键所在,也是英语新课程教学改革成功的关键所在。经过多年的教育教学实践,我认为要切实提高英语课堂教学的有效性应首先从下面几个大的方面着手。     

浅谈如何在小学数学教学中创设情境

学生的学习活动是由多种心理因素决定的,而情感因素则是影响学生学习的众多因素中最积极、最重要的因素之一,所以情感对教学过程有着极其重要的作用和影响,因而它也是提高课堂教学效果的重要因素之一。课堂教学要激发学生的情感体验,就要真正把情感体验的权利还给学生。教师的角色就在于致力于为学生创设一种特有的情感氛围,让学生自己感受、自己体验。     

初中英语口语教学中学生心理特征及教师应对策略

如今，在英语口语教学的起始阶段，尤其是在学生处于“叛逆期”的初中阶段，越来越多的初中英语教师把教学研究重点转向研究学生学习英语的心理过程，即情感因素对英语学习的影响。“从教育心理学的角度看，学习过程中影响学习效果的最大因素之一是学习者的情感控制。学习语言是学习一种表达情感的方法，外语学习涉及诸多的社会心理因素”。     

论声乐教学中的情感想象

情感因素是歌唱感知和想象的动力,情感对歌唱艺术美感的形成起着积极地推动作用。声乐教学的过程是培养学生获得情感想象的良好途径,注重调动各个教学环节的有利因素,对激发情感想象,提高歌唱技能,完善审美能力有着重要的现实意义。     

在语文教学中培养学生情感之我见

在语文教学中,要求学生用自己的真实情感去深切感受作者在文中传递出来的情感,教学过程也是师生情感交融、情感流动的过程,如果在教学中机械的授课,缺乏情感的投入,学生就会缺乏对智慧的挑战,缺乏对好奇心的刺激,缺乏对事对人的爱,进而导致学生厌学,教师厌教。因此语文教学中,教师充分调动学生的情感,拨动学生的心弦,加强对学生情感素质的开发和培养,是十分重要的。     

阅读教学在大学英语中作用

Characteristics and rules of college English education based on cognitive process simulation

Metacognition is a process of self-cognition and self-thinking based on self-reflection, control, evaluation and regulation to achieve continuous cognition of individuals. Metacognition plays a very important role in coordination and guidance in college English education. Therefore, in this paper, the characteristics and rules of college English education were studied based on the cognitive process simulation. First of all, the basic theory of metacognition and the advantages and methods applied to English teaching were expounded. Then, a mathematical model was set up for college oral English teaching, and how to improve oral pronunciation for oral learners by quantitative and effective evaluation was discussed. After that, targeted information evaluation results were provided, and the algorithm was optimized and improved. Finally, by using computer aided technology and metacognitive method, the effect of oral English teaching was simulated and tested. The results show that the results of this study provide a useful exploration for improving the effectiveness of college English education and have good application value.     

The Influence of Learning Style on English Learning Achievement Among Undergraduates in Mainland China

Learning style is one of the main factors that determines how students learn English and has a significant influence on students’ learning strategy selection, which further affects their learning outcomes (Ehrman and Oxford in Mod Lang J 74(3):311–327, 1990; Oxford in Language learning styles and strategies: an overview, 2003. http://web.ntpu.edu.tw/~language/workshop/read2.pdf). This study examines the learning style preferences of Chinese university students and whether those preferences influence their English achievements. Four hundred undergraduates from one university in eastern mainland China participated in this study. Data from 329 valid questionnaires were analysed. The results revealed that the Chinese university students preferred the visual learning style the most, followed by the auditory and kinaesthetic styles. However, no learning style preference was found to influence the students’ English proficiency. Cultural reasons are discussed to explain the findings, which contradict those of previous studies of learning style theories and practices. This study recommends that Chinese scholars consider issues of English teaching and learning in China and to adopt appropriate teaching methods to effectively improve English teaching.

Inhibitors to EFL teachers’ reflective teaching and EFL learners’ reflective thinking and the role of teaching experience and academic degree in reflection perception

The present study investigated Iranian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers’ perception of their own reflective teaching, of inhibitors to their reflective teaching, of inhibitors to their students’ reflective thinking, and the impact of teaching experience and academic degree on their perception of reflective teaching. To this end, 304 private-language-institute English as a Foreign Language Teachers teachers participated in the study by completing English Language Teaching Reflection Inventory developed by Akbari, Behzadpoor, and Dadvand, Inhibitors to EFL Teachers’ Reflective Teaching Questionnaire and Inhibitors to EFL Learners’ Reflective Thinking Questionnaire, with the last two instruments being developed and validated by the researchers. The results indicated that (1) Iranian EFL teachers perceived their reflective teaching to lie at a medium level, (2) three types of inhibitors to EFL teachers’ reflective teaching included ‘lack of knowledge’, ‘affective-emotional’ and ‘teaching situation’ inhibitors, and (3) three types of inhibitors to EFL learners’ reflective thinking also comprised ‘affective-emotional’, ‘cognitive’ and ‘learning situation’ inhibitors. The results of two-way ANOVA indicated both academic degree and teaching experience significantly differentiated Iranian EFL teachers with respect to their reflective teaching perception, but the interaction effect of them did not do so. The results are discussed in detail in the article.     

Double narrative of a researcher and the researched: the journey of English-language learning

As I embarked on my PhD study in Australia, I felt excited because my study was born out of reflection on my own journey of English-language learning. I decided to use my experiences as a touchstone for an understanding of the experiences of others like me. The study presented here is part of a larger study and is a double narrative that explores the researcher’s and the four participants’ experiences of learning English language in their home country contexts and also in Australia while they are studying in an Australian tertiary context. Through a reflective practice, I have reflectively studied my and the participants’ experiences with language learning strategies (LLS) to improve English-language skills and to better socialise into Australian academic and social discourses as international students. By linking the researcher and the researched closely, this research makes a contribution to English learning and teaching on the development of English-language skills of international students through the use of LLS. It provides some implications to institutions and advice to students like me.     

Home Literacy Environment and English Language and Literacy Skills Among Chinese Young Children Who Learn English as a Second Language

The present study explored the home literacy environment for Chinese ESL kindergarteners and examined the relationships between home literacy practices and language and literacy skills. Ninety Hong Kong Chinese ESL kindergarteners were assessed for English vocabulary, phonological awareness, letter knowledge and word reading. Their parents completed a questionnaire about home literacy practices. Results showed that these practices can be classified into three aspects: shared reading, exposure to English materials and home teaching. Shared reading uniquely predicted receptive and expressive vocabulary, syllable awareness and word reading in English. Exposure to English materials predicted expressive vocabulary and home teaching predicted letter knowledge.

母语句法结构对中国学生英语语句理解的影响

中国学生的英语学习受到汉语的影响,尽管这种影响随着学生英语提高而渐趋减小,但当学生的英语达到相当高水平时仍可较明显地观察到。通过实验证明：中国英语专业二年级学生在英语学习中仍受到汉语一定程度的影响,而且在词序方面尤为明显。这种影响的存在表明在中国的英语教学和学习中应给予母语因素以足够的重视。
