谈高职高专教育英语应用文写作能力的再培养

摘要:为了适应当今社会对英语人才日趋复合型、技能型、实用型的发展要求,英文应用文写作也将以培养大学生输出性语言应用技能,即实际运用语言的书面交际能力为主要教学目标,不断突出教学的实践性与针对性,培养大学生能够流利运用英语进行写作,交流的能力。在此基础上,结合实际教学经历,探讨一些英语写作教学发展的趋势,提高任务型、情景型教学法等在实际教学活动中的比重,培养学生勇于创新、勇于挑战的学习能力。

关键词:英文应用文写作 情景型教学法 创新能力

1 教学理论与方法探讨

(1)教学目标的培养。根据我国高校《高职高专教育英语课程基本要求》的明确规定,英语教学应以培养学生实际生活英语运用能力为主要目标。而其中英语应用文写作又是各类高职专业都必学的一个重要环节,该课程具有很强的实用性与实践性。旨在通过学习写作,使学生具备日后在各技术领域和岗位上都能撰写相应应用文的能力、运用所学知识和方法正确分析解决实际交际问题的综合能力等等。在各类高职院校中,有关英语应用文写作一直是学生学习方面较为薄弱的环节,包括有关句式的使用,内容的完善以及思维的应变等方面都缺乏系统的训练与培养,这和英语教学大纲里有关要求学生熟练掌握英语应用文的文体风格、实用范畴、语言特点、写作格式与书写方法

等具体目标还相差很远。因此,针对以上情况,我们在设计各类英语应用文的写作练习中,就应该把题材的多样性与实用性充分的考虑进去。这其中就应该包括诸如各类正式通知、商务便条(约会、致歉、非正式邀请)、往来贺电(问候、祝愿、祝贺词)、贸易邮件、求职履历等等。随着电子商务的发展,英语应用文和许多商务英语的写作范围也呈现出不断扩大的趋势,这足以引起我们的高度重视。

2)更新教学方法。从教学方法方面分析,无论是从教材现有规定出发还是从学生自主学习的内容出发,其重点难点都会集中在各种应用文的写作模式及常用习语及其句型上;要想正确而有效的将句子意思表达完整、清晰,除了要求语言的使用者有一定的思维、观察和分析问题的能力外,还要强调运用一些有关项目或情境教学法的优势,让学生亲身参与到信息的收集与整理;方案的制定与实施和及其成果的鉴定与评价中来,充分发挥学生作为学习主体的地位和作用。不断将专业知识和生活实际相结合,合理进行语篇布局,从而达到提高写作水平之根本目的。

2 学情分析与模式初探

(1)实用英语写作讲求实效性和客观性。即力求做到准确、简明地传达发信者的意思,而我们课堂上所进行的简单的写作练习也大多属于模仿性的写作,只重视了一些文体格式和固定套句的传授,对如何真正提高写作技能培养方面还较为欠缺;其次,写作题材与学生职业生涯方面联系还不够紧密,学生学习的系统性与自主性不强,缺乏

独立思考与创新的能力;加之各门课程的考核方法较为单一,造成只片面关心分数而轻视技能与知识的培养等问题。所以最终我们常常看到的结果便是学生词汇量缺乏,不能正确对相关词组和句型加以运用,语法和习语运用错误频发,文章布局能力差等等。为了改变这种现象,我们应该采取积极互评互动的方法,让学生自主发现写作中的不足并主动给出改进建议,这样便可有针对性地提高其英语应用文写作的意识和水平。另外,通过不断增加以图片、视频等新颖教学模式来进行新闻、趣事及热点的展示,创造出一种身临其境地的感觉,以此来展现不同文体的语言特点,从而达到扩大学生的视野和知识面的目的,有效增强学生主动阅读英语文章和进行英文写作的兴趣。

(2)提倡使用任务型教学法。所谓任务型学习(Task-based learning)理论是20世纪xx年代由一些外语教学法研究者和第二语言习得研究者在大量研究和实践的基础上提出来的具有重要影响的学习理论。同传统的模拟写作教学法相比较而言,任务型教学法对我国高校的英语写作教学产生了及其深远的影响,它是一种以完成特定的交际任务为教学目的的外语教学方法,是在交际法基础上发展而来的对传统写作教学方法的改革和尝试。简单地说,任务型教学法就是在英语教学过程中设定一个特定的任务,让学生在完成任务的过程中学习和掌握相关语言知识,注重培养学生解决问题的能力和策略,鼓励学生在完成任务过程中积极参与和交流,并且提倡学生也参与到教学内容的制定上来,力图使学生充分输入自己的观点和建议,丰富教学内容,增加课题资源,并成为整个学习过程的中心。最终达到开发学习潜能,提

高学习效果的目的。

3 教学实例分析

在日常生活与工作中,我们常见到的英语应用文类型有:邀请信

(A Letter of Invitation)、申请信(A Letter of Application)、询问信(A Letter of Inquiry)、投诉信信(A Letter of Complaint)、道歉信(A Letter of Apology)感谢信(A Letter of Thanks)、祝贺信(A Letter of A Letter of Congratulation)、请求信(A Letter of Request)、建议信(A Letter of Advice)及辞职信(A Letter of Resignation)等。现就其中一些考试中常见的题材分析如下。

邀请信(A Letter of Invitation)

英文邀请信就其形式主要有请柬和一般邀请信两种。前者格式严谨且较为固定,一般常用于严肃、庄重的场合,例如邀请嘉宾参加论坛或会议等;而后者则偏重于日常生活方面的邀请,通常邀请人与被邀请人之间较为熟悉,语言风格也很简练、热情。而无论是哪种,在写法上都要注明邀请对方参加某项具体活动的时间,地点及原因等等,这样才能达到良好的效果。其较为常用的开头句型有:

I am writing to invite you to attend a ……

I would like to see your presence at …….

Would?you?give?us?the?pleasure?of……..

I wonder if you could come …………..

How would you like to join us in …….?

4 结语

综上所述,在高职高专英语应用文写作的教学活动中,不断探讨和采纳新的教学模式有助于教学效果的推陈出新。在培养学生进行自主学习的基础上,还能够做到立足专业需求,培养应用能力,为今后的学习和职业生涯发展打下坚实的基础。

第二篇:高职高专学生英语应用文写作的调查报告

高职高专学生英语应用文写作的调查报告

摘 要: 英语写作一直是英语教学的薄弱环节,英语应用文写作又是高职高专英语应用能力考试中的一项重要内容。因此,如何提高英语应用文写作能力对高职高专院校的学生而言尤显重要。本次调查以问卷形式了解高职高专学生英语学习的情况,特别是在英语应用文写作方面存在的问题及实际困难,为进一步制定科学合理的英语应用文写作教学方案提供参考。

1.引言

在英语学习中,学习者除了通过听说学习语言,更要通过用英语进行书写深入理解词汇的用法、语句的构成,进行语句的训练和创造,产出新的语句。对于高职高专的学生来说,学生需要掌握如何用英语写出实际需要的各种文体的文章。教育部高教司20xx年颁布的《高职高专英语课程教学基本要求》,对大学英语课程提出了具体的要求。要求指出:高职高专英语课程教学目标是使学生具有一定的英语基础,培养学生的英语应用能力,使他们在今后工作和社会交往中能使用英语有效地进行口头和书面的信息交流。考虑到高职学生的需求和高职高专英语课的教学目标定位,为了在教学实践中探求解决英语写作教学难问题的方法,我们于20xx年秋季学期对我院20xx级5个专业10个班级的350名学生进行了“关于高职高专学生英语应用文写作”的问卷调查。

2.调查对象、目的与方式

(1)调查对象

20xx级5个专业10个班级的学生。

(2)调查目的

通过调查,了解学生在英语应用文写作方面存在的问题,做到因材施教,从而提高我院学生的英语应用文写作水平,推进我院的英语教学改革,使学生达到真正意义上自主写作的目的。

(3)调查方式

设计了十个问题对学生进行问卷调查。发放问卷350份,回收319份,有效率为91.14%。调查内容分为三部分:对自身英语应用文写作情况的认知程度;对英语应用文写作的态度与习惯;对英语应用文写作的教学方法的看法。

3.调查结果与分析

表1 高职高专学生对英语应用文写作的态度与习惯(%)

从表1看,96%的学生都认为应用文写作重要。在没有老师布置的情况下主动练习写作的不到5%,在统计学上可以认为高职高专学生(所调查群体)在课堂之外不练习写作,而56%的学生在写作时根本不列提纲便盲目进行。从调查结果来看,在英语应用文的写作上,大多数学生的写作态度和习惯都存在问题,还需要不断地改进与提高。基于此,我们将高职高专英语的教学目标定为:通过教学,学生能掌握基本的写作技巧,能根据提示写出简单的短文和应用文,培养学生对英语应用文写作的兴趣。

表2 高职高专学生对自身英语应用文写作情况的认知程度(%)

从数据看,被调查的319位学生没有过高估计自己的英语水平,76.18%对自己英语应用文写作水平的评价并不乐观,约79%的学生觉得对英语应用文体掌握不太熟或一点不熟。归其原因,学生语言质量不过关,语法错误多,用词用句不规范。语法错误在词语上体现最多的就是用词有误和搭配错误。用词错误是指实意动词、形容词和副词等的误用。搭配错误主要体现在各类词组短语惯用法上,当然还有拼写错误。在句子上出现的问题主要是缺少主语、主谓不一致、主从句时态不一致、从句引导词误用、固定句式错用等。学生的作文中还有很多中国式英语,以及大量非正式用法。

表3 高职高专学生对英语应用文写作的教学方法的看法(%)

从调查结果可以看出,尽管学生基础不是很好,但却希望老师用英语或多用英语授课,这是一个值得深思的问题。这也说明,我们在课堂上使用的授课语言的方向没有偏离,但要把握好一个度。在应用文写作的教学方法上,所调查的学生大多数选择折中的方法。在使用何种语言教学上,54.55%的学生认为英汉对半较好,在课堂上也认为讲练对半较好。关于老师多讲好还是学生多练好这个问题,学生的选择表明教师“满堂灌”或多讲是行不通的,只有讲练结合并倾向于多练才是出路。从调查结果来看,80%以上的学生认为每个单元均应安排一种应用文体的写作。从这三个调查问题的结果来看,大多数学生有学好应用文写作的良好愿望,但对自己对于英语应用文体的写作能力持否定态度。其原因可能有二:学生基础差;教师在方法上还有待改进。应用文体的写作,对于高职高专毕业生是基本要求。可以说,课堂上进行应用文体的写作是大势所趋。

4.讨论

通过本次调查,我们对我院高职学生的英语应用文写作情况有了一个比较全面的认识。总而言之,这次调查问卷反映出来的主要问题有以下几点:在明白自身英语水平和清楚自身问题的前提下,大多数学生对于英语应用文写作所做出的努力很少。毋庸置疑,我们进行英语应用文写作问卷调查只是初步阶段,有待于深入。英语写作不同于汉语写作,不能按汉语的思维模式进行作文,因此学生初步学会了某种写作技巧或模式,不管这种技巧或模式是否适合学生个体,就要求他们很快能够熟练地写出很好的应用文或作文来,这几乎是不可能的。英语写作课教学必须体现实用性,教的内容要满足学生岗位的需求,能够在今后的工作岗位上用得着,学以致用是高职英语写作教学的最大特点。这就要求教师在教学中做到以下几点:(1)在教学内容上能够根据不同的专业方向有所取舍,有所侧重;(2)鼓励学生经常进行英语应用文写作的练习,开展形式多样的英语活动激发他们的写作热情;(3)结合自身教学特点和学生实际情况,不断改进教学方法,优化课堂教学方案,提高学生对词汇与语法的掌控能力。

5.结语

英语应用文写作展示的是英语综合实力,需要有过硬的文字功底,准确简明地传达有关的信息。英语应用文写作比母语写作多了一个思维习惯和文化差异问题,需要教师和学生付出更多的努力。教师对课堂训练的设计和训练方法对学生影响很大。因此课堂设计应结合学生的生活实际,以学生的生活与经验为核心,处理好理论与实践、语言与文化、内容与实际的关系。

Dear Mr. / Ms, We are much concerned that your sales in recent months have fallen considerably.

Dear Mr. / Ms, I was very concerned when I received your letter of yesterday complaining that the central

heating system in your new house had not been completed by the date promised. On referring to our earlier correspondence,I find that I had mistaken the date for completion. The fault is entirely mine and I deeply regret that it should have occurred. I realize the inconvenience our oversight must be causing you and will do everything possible to avoid any further delay. I have already given instructions for the work to have priority and the engineers working on the job to be placed on overtime. These arrangements should see the installation completed by next weekend. Yours faithfully

尊敬的先生/小姐,

昨天收到你的来信,抱怨你新家的中央加热系统未按规定时间装好,对此我非常关心。参考较早的通信,我发现我搞错了完成日期。错误完全是我的,对此我非常抱歉。

认识到我们的疏忽给你造成的不便,我们将竭尽全力避免再耽搁。我已指示这项工作优先做并让工程人员加班。这样安排会于下周完成安装。
