图式三分学说对外语教学的启示

图式作为一种认知框架,是先存知识或背景知识。认知心理学界传统上将图式分为内容图式和形式图式。Oller以皮尔斯的符号学理论为基础,将传统的图式划分标准扩展为三分法,从而使图式理论更趋完善和合理。本文从认知心理学角度出发,分别探讨了图式三分学说的具体内容以及图式三分学说对外语教学的启示作用,旨在说明图式三分学说对外语教学的积极促进作用。

Implication of Schema Trichotomy in Foreign Language Teaching

As a cognitive frame,Schema is interpreted as pre-existent knowledge or background knowledge.Traditionally,sche-ma,from the view of cognitive psychology,is divided content schema and formal schema.Based on semiotic theory,Oller puts forward schema trichotomy,which is added abstract schema to the traditionally established content schema and formal schema.The present article attempts to explore two aspects as follows: the content of schema trichotomy;and how to apply schema trichot-omy to achieve better teaching-efficiency.
