在小学英语教学中渗透美育,既可以激发学生学习的内部动机,还可以让学生的人格在学习中得以完善。文章还提出了实现美育渗透的途径,即从英语的韵律美、形式美、意义美和文化美四个方面挖掘英语的内在美,此外还要不断优化教师的教学语言。     

汉壮接触与平话副词后置

汉、壮民族接触秦代已有文献记载,而汉、壮语间之接触至今未止,由此产生的相互影响,渗透至语言的各个层面。因长期受到壮语之干扰,平话,作为汉语方言之一,其副词呈现出后置动词的特点。基于语言接触及类型学之理论视角,有利于深入探讨语言接触对平话副词位置的干扰问题。     

标话的形成

标话、上坊话和下坊话三种语言应在1000多前就在怀集共存了。原始标话与汉语方言长期交流融合,逐渐发展成为今天各地的标话。这种语言吸收了很多汉语的成分,但少数民族语言的底子没有变。     

区域化对外汉语教材编写之我见——以《泰国人学汉语》为例

由于汉语与学习者母语之间在发音、语法、书写等方面差别很大。任何一套教材都无法“通吃”,编写区域化的汉语教材的需求越来越强烈。以《泰国人学汉语》为例,考察、研究教学实际可知。编写区域化的对外汉语教材应遵守交际原则,体现地域特征、时代特征和文化特征。     

Scholarly Information Seeking of Academic Engineers and Technologists

This study aimed to investigate the scholarly information-seeking behavior of academic engineers and technologists working at the University of the Punjab. The purpose of the study was to investigate the various information sources being used by academic engineers and technologists for their scholarly tasks, with a focus on use patterns of e-journals. A quantitative study employing “survey” method was conducted to achieve the research objectives. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to all regular and contractual academic engineers and technologists working at the university and a response rate of 61% was achieved. The study findings showed that the respondents' most-used information sources were e-journals, e-books, discussion with colleagues, and electronic research reports. They accessed e-journal articles through general search engines, Google Scholar, and open access e-journal websites. Majority of the respondents used e-journals for keeping themselves up-to-date and supervising researchers. While previous studies have investigated academic and practitioner engineers' information-seeking habits, this study is valuable as it investigated academic engineers' and technologists' scholarly information-seeking behavior in relation to their e-journals use patterns.     

Chinese Students in Kennesaw State University Libraries: Their Perceptions and Patterns of Use

With the globalization in education, there has been an influx of Chinese students studying in the United States. The needs and challenges of understanding their backgrounds and their perceptions about libraries are becoming more present and urgent for librarians who are on the frontline of serving this special cohort. To discover and address the growing needs and challenges, we surveyed 42 Chinese students at Kennesaw State University, analyzed the data collected, and discussed the research results. Our goal is to identify the characteristics common to this group and to provide some insightful information to our fellow librarians.

Pragmatic Adaptability of Teacher's Codeswitching in English Classes

In this paper,the author applies Jef Verschueren's Pragmatics as a Theory of Linguistic Adaptation as the theoretical basement.And the generation of code- switching is discussed under the guidance of Yu Guodong's Adaptation Model as well.Conclusions can be drawn as: teacher's English/Chinese codeswitching is an adaptation to linguistic reality,social conventions and teacher's psychological intentions,the first two being considered as passive switching and the last being active switching.Teacher's codeswitching as understanding-facilitating strategy forms the most important factor that triggers teacher's English/Chinese codeswitching.     

欧洲语言教师教育纲要述评与启示

教师语言倭化研究

语言倭化僭越了教师对学生进行批评教育的合理限度而演变成一种教师言语道德的失范行为.教师语言倭化现象的产生有其师源性、生源性和制度性等原因.遏制教师语言倭化现象,从教师方面应采取师德师风建设,建立师生平等的对话交流机制;学生方面应采取加强学生权利意识教育,提高学生自我保护能力;制度层面应采取完善教育法规和学校管理制度,建立教师师德监督机制等措施.
