前言
根據(jù)教育部大學(xué)英語(yǔ)教學(xué)改革的精神,《大學(xué)英語(yǔ)課程要求》提出要培養(yǎng)“學(xué)生的英語(yǔ)綜合應(yīng)用能力,特別是聽(tīng)說(shuō)能力”,這其中包含了一些教學(xué)理念和教學(xué)模式的創(chuàng)新。要達(dá)到大學(xué)英語(yǔ)教學(xué)改革的預(yù)期效果,教師是十分關(guān)鍵的因素。大學(xué)英語(yǔ)教學(xué)改革的實(shí)踐者是在教學(xué)第一線的廣大英語(yǔ)教師,因此,針對(duì)目前我國(guó)大學(xué)英語(yǔ)教學(xué)師資短缺等問(wèn)題,加強(qiáng)大學(xué)英語(yǔ)師資培訓(xùn)是擺在我們面前的一項(xiàng)刻不容緩的任務(wù)。為此,高等教育出版社策劃引進(jìn)出版了《外語(yǔ)教師教育與發(fā)展叢書——體驗(yàn)英語(yǔ)教學(xué)系列》。 這是一套開放性的大型系列叢書,收入多位世界級(jí)語(yǔ)言教學(xué)專家的作品,具有權(quán)威性;內(nèi)容涉及到外語(yǔ)教學(xué)方法、測(cè)試、評(píng)估等多個(gè)方面。叢書不僅系統(tǒng)介紹外語(yǔ)教學(xué)相關(guān)理論,更結(jié)合作者多年的教學(xué)經(jīng)驗(yàn),提供了大量實(shí)踐案例,希望能夠開拓我國(guó)外語(yǔ)教師教學(xué)及科研視野,培養(yǎng)教師在教學(xué)問(wèn)題上獨(dú)立思考、研究和創(chuàng)新的能力,成為我國(guó)外語(yǔ)教師教育與發(fā)展的助力器。 《外語(yǔ)教師教育與發(fā)展叢書——體驗(yàn)英語(yǔ)教學(xué)系列》充分體現(xiàn)了體驗(yàn)式的教育理念,配合教育部大學(xué)英語(yǔ)教學(xué)改革推薦教材《大學(xué)體驗(yàn)英語(yǔ)》立體化系列教材及學(xué)習(xí)系統(tǒng)而出版,目的在于推薦新的教學(xué)理念,完成教學(xué)理念向教學(xué)實(shí)踐的轉(zhuǎn)化?! 〗谖疑邕€將出版一系列為師范類學(xué)生、英語(yǔ)教師和英語(yǔ)研究者使用的英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)言教學(xué)叢書。我們由衷地希望這些教材的出版,對(duì)各高等院校的英語(yǔ)教學(xué)有所促進(jìn)和幫助。

章節(jié)摘錄
3. Have students selected and collected meaningful work? The work that the students collect together into the portfolios should be meaningful to them. This can be accomplished by allowing them to make the selection decisions, at least to some degree. That way they can decide what is meaningful or not to them. For example, if the students will be writing nine compositions during the semester, you might negotiate with them and decide together that they will select one composition from the first set of three, one from the second set of three, and one from the last set of three (including all associated rough, second, and final drafts) to include in their portfolios so their progress in writing ability will be displayed. It may also be a good idea to encourage students to add illustrations, collages, photos, etc. to make the work more personal and meaningful to them. 4. Have students periodically reflected in writing on their portfolios? Another important component of the portfolio development process is to have students periodically reflect in writing on their portfolios. They might reflect on how much progress they have made in their writing abilities, what they still need to work on, how their attitudes toward writing have changed in the process of developing the portfolio, etc. These reflections need not be lengthy, but they should probably be done on a regular basis, and they should be included in the portfolio. 5. Have other students, teachers, outsiders, etc., periodically examined the portfolios? Yet another aspect of the portfolio process that is often mentioned in the literature is the importance of having other students, teachers, outsiders, etc. periodically examine the portfolios. Such examination of portfolios can be done at an open house or simply by arranging for classes that are doing portfolios to visit each other and have a look at what the members of the other class did in their portfolios. The purposes for displaying the portfolios in this way are to encourage students to take pride in them, to help students feel ownership in their work, and to make the whole process more meaningful to the students. 6. Have you scored the portfolios by applying Numbers 1-6 under Task in Table 3.3? Grading portfolios may also encourage the students to take them more seriously. The principles described in Numbers 3-5 under Task in Table 3.3 (p. 51) and the associated prose will be helpful in setting up a holistie or analytic scoring grid for portfolios. You might find it useful to work out the scoring grid in discussions with the students.
