首先非常佩服刘道义老师,白发苍苍,一直在用英语讲座。刘道义老师从英语学习能力的发展过程,到英语学习能力的主要特征、中国学生听说英语的困难原因,再到英语听说技能训练方法和如何运用学习策略发展英语听说能力,长达2小时的讲座,让我对培养学生学习能力有了一定的认识。
学生学习力的形成与个人的兴趣、学习氛围、和谐的师生关系、有效的学习方法有密切关系老师。“兴趣是最好的老师”。一个人只要对所做、所学的事情有兴趣,他才会有毅力、有动力克服有学习中遇到的困难,才会积极主动去学习,会想方设法去思考,并千方百计寻求解决的方法。学生只有对学习有兴趣才能积极主地探索,主体性才能得到充分发挥。其次良好的学习氛围有利于提高学习力,生的学习情趣会随环境的变化而变化。一个具有团结向上,积极进取的浓厚学习氛围的无肯定对每一个学生的学习力产生积极的.影响。再次和谐的师生关系是促进学生的学习力的良方,个人都有情绪,但老师不能把不愉快的心情带入课堂。在教学过程中,情感与态度会影响到教学效果。如果老师能以友好的态度、微笑的表情传递给学生,表现出教师爱的真情,就会感动学生。学生的情绪会跟着教师的情绪而波动,在情感上产生共鸣,学生的学习积极性自然就会提高。最后,教给学生学习方法是提高学习力的关键,常言道“授之以鱼不如授之以渔”。平常的教学过程中,把新知识转化为旧的知识;把难的复杂的问题转化为容易的简单的问题。这样,学生在学习过程中获得的不仅仅是“鱼”,而是“渔”,从而达到提升“学习力”提升的目的。
当然,提高学生的学习力方法很多,在以后的教学过程中我会不断地探索,不断地总结。
《如何高效学习》是加拿大ScottYoung写的一本书,书中讲的学习方法叫整体性学习,通读全书我没有找到整体性学习的准确概念。就我个人理解应该翻译为联系性学习更合适,所以我按照我的\'理解来改写。全书主要分为两部分:
一、联系性学习策略
二、联系性学习技术
一、联系性学习策略
这部分分三个部分:学习顺序,信息分类、学习目标。
联系性学习顺序分六步:
1、获取获取信息。目标是信息要准确、压缩。
2、理解理解信息。理解在书中的联系。
3、拓展构建广泛的联系
4、纠错通过测试找出错误,纠正错误。
5、应用将自己的理解与现实联系在一起
6、测试不断测试、反馈。
随后作者将信息分为五类:观点信息、过程信息、具体信息、抽象信息,随意信息。将信息分类,随后针对不同信息运用不同方法进行学习。
学习的目标:以用为本,以用促学,边学边用,
二、联系性学习技术
这部分分为有以下内容:
1、获取知识中的技术有:快速阅读,笔记流
2、联系观点的技术有:比喻、内在化、图表法
3、随意信息的处理有:联想法、挂钩法、信息压缩技术
4、知识扩展的方法:实际应用、模型纠错、以项目为基础的学习
读完整本书,我整体感觉作者是一个学霸,但不是一个严肃的老师。书写的真的是随笔,这本书翻译的有点生搬硬套,不敢恭维。但是读完这本书对我还是有两点启发:
一、以项目为基础的学习。就是计划用三个月解决一个自己的现实问题。例如通过学习会计理清自己的财务问题,通过读历史来看清人性,学计算机编程试试写小游戏。
二、图表法,将知识做成流程图,概念图,图像化。
最后引用书中一句话作为结尾:如果只用一种方式了解某样事物,你就不会真正了解他。了解事物真正含义的秘密取决于如何将其与我们所了解的其他事物相联系。通过联系,你可将想法内化于心,从各种角度看问题,直至找到适合自己的方法。这才是思考的真谛!
说明文是以说明为主要表达方式用来说明事物,阐明事理的`一种文体。它通过揭示概念来说明事物的特征、本质及其规律性,给人准确的科学知识或正确思想。一般可分为实体事物说明和抽象事物说明两大类,词典、教材、论文、实验报告、产品说明书、广告、解说词及科学小品等都属于说明文。
按写作方法,英语说明文主要分为下面六种类型
1.例证法 2.定义法 3.分类法 4.因果关系法 5.比较对照法 6.过程分析法
1.例证法
Our life today depends very much on energy. For example, machines have made our life easier than it used to be. The machines use energy, and energy is needed for heating, lighting, communications, carrying goods-everything. Factories use a great deal of energy to make the things that we use and buy and sell.
这段主要是讲能源问题。第一句为主题句,概括地说出"我们目前的生活很大程度上依赖能源"。接着用举例的方法从三方面说明能源的作用。
2.定义法
An ideal teacher must have the following characteristics. He should know his subject, but he can make mistakes if he is willing to learn. His personality is as important as his scholarship. An ideal teacher must be enthusiastic. He should be a bit of an actor and he shouldn't be afraid to show his feelings and express his likes and dislikes. An ideal teacher is one who grows, learns, and improves himself along with his students.
本段的展开是通过对"一个模范教师"下定义的方法,关键词"ideal teacher"在文中多次重复,能加深读者的印象。
3.分类法
As far as political views are concerned, people fall into three categories. First are the conservative people. Conservatives are opposed to sudden or great changes. Second are the liberal people. These people are in favour of progress and reform. But their opinions often seem too idealistic. Third are the moderate people. The moderates keep everything within reasonable limits. They are more practical in this hard world. In my opinion, most people seem to belong to this group.
本段把人按政治观点分为三类:保守派(conservative people、自由派(liberal people和温和派(moderate people,并对他们各自的特征进行了简要的分析。
4.因果关系法
Of the four seasons, I like spring best. I prefer spring because it is a season of much joy and gaiety. New life bursts out everywhere. Plants wear a green coat again and colourful flowers blossom in gardens and mountains. The old come outdoors for fresh air and the young plan for outdoor activities. Life becomes so energetic and happy.
第一句为本段主题句,末句是总结句。在主题句后, 作者用了四个句子阐述自己喜欢春天的理由。
5.比较对照法
I like having a twin sister. When she's happy, I'm happy. When she feels unhappy, I feel the same. Often, I know what she's going to say. Sometimes, I know what she's thinking. I like what she likes. I hate what she hates. We like the same music, the same food and the same books.
这段采用AB交错的比较方式,阐述孪生姐妹的相同特征。这种写法较流畅自然,给读者的印象也更鲜明突出。
6.过程分析法
There are several steps to plant a tree. First, dig a hole large enough for the tree, but the hole should not be too deep. Second, put the tree in the hole so that it is straight. Third, put the earth back into the hole again. Push it down hard with your foot several times. Finally, water the tree well, as often as possible.
这段分析了植树过程中的几个步骤。全段层次分明,连接词语(first, second, third, finally的使用加强了语句的连贯性。

As we all know, trees are very useful. They are of great benefit to man as follows. First, trees provide us with wood and other products. Second, their roots can allow the rain to sink in and keep the soil, so they help to prevent droughts and floods. Trees can help clean air and beautify life.
Unfortunately, nowadays in many parts of the world lots of people fail to realize the importance of trees. They have cut trees down in large numbers without a plan, which makes the soil washed away. They don’t know where there are no trees, the rain washes away the surface of the soil and this causes floods.
We ought to plant trees each year and carefully look after new trees in order not to make the forest slowly disappear. Only in this way can we make the forest serve man forever.
