跨文化交际:中英文化对比

via XuetangX

Overview

本课程基于“内容与语言融合式学习”这一先进的外语教学理念,把学习者的英语学习融入本课程八个单元对应的语言与语言学习、服饰与着装规范、饮食与餐桌礼仪、酒与酒文化、传统节日与节庆、休闲饮品茶与咖啡、交通运输、健康与健身运动八个贴近生活的文化主题之中。每个主题又细分为两个中国文化和两个英语文化话题。旨在全面提升学生对中英两种文化的认知程度,培养学生综合运用英语的能力以及跨文化交际能力,提高学生的学习兴趣,促进大学英语课程效率的提高。

支架式教学法”为指导,本课程根据中英文化英语的不同特点,分别为中国文化部分和英语文化部分设计了不同的板块。每单元中国文化部分的讲座主要包括“Scaffolding (助力脚手架)”“Topic (话题讲解)”“Summary (小结)”和“Extension (拓展)”四个板块;英语文化部分主要包含“Topic (话题讲解)”“Summary (小结)”“Review (复习)”和“Extension (拓展)”四个板块。生动有趣的话题导入和问题也穿插其中。除了教师引导讲解之外,每个讲座还都包含了丰富的图片等辅助手段和视频。

与现有的同类课程相比,课程具有以下特色:

  • 兼顾中英文化,着眼对比交流:本课程兼顾中国和英语国家两种文化的介绍和阐释,帮助学习者深入了解两种文化的内涵;同时通过针对同一主题下两种文化的对比分析,引导学习者理解两种文化的异同,提升跨文化交际意识,培养跨文化交际能力。

  • 主题贴近生活,由小见大:本课程从衣、食、住、行、娱等贴近生活的角度出发选取主题,充分展现文化的灿烂多姿,让学习者通过领略不同的民俗风情,探索不同文化的丰富内涵。

  • 融合内容与语言,一举两得:本课程基于先进的CLIL教学理念,在注重增加学习者文化知识的同时,也顾及其语言知识和技能的提高,从而提高了英语学习效率。

  • 每个单元以优秀的中国传统文化入手,将“课程思政”贯穿课程始终:把民族自豪感、文化自信等思想导向与本课程的知识、技能传授有机融合,实现了显性与隐性教育的有机结合,以文化人,提高学习者的审美和人文素养。
