利用网络互动提高外语交际能力

由于课堂交际具有线性特征(the linier feature),互动教学方法对提高学生外语的接触量和使用量具有一定的局限性。网络交际与外语教学相结合的方法不但可以解决上述问题,而且还可以为学生提供真实的语言输入和更多的参与目的语社会文化语境的机会,提高他们的语言能力和语用能力。同时,网络互动可以为学生提供均等的语言输出的机会,激发他们的学习动机,提高他们的学习自主性。

Use of Internet Interaction to Develop EFL Learners' Communicative Competence

In EFL classrooms,teachers have gradually adopted the CLT approach focusing on meaning and language use,due to the linier feature of face-to-face interaction,the learning outcome is still not efficient enough.EFL teachers now urgently need a solution to increase exposure and use of the target knowledge both inside and outside of the classroom.This paper assumes that the integration of CMC(Computer Mediated Communication) into EFL learning can provide learners with more authentic input and more opportunities to participate in the target sociocultural contexts;both linguistic and pragmatic knowledge can be promoted.Moreover,motivation,learners' autonomy and equal opportunities for output can also be encouraged through the use of CMC inside and outside of the classroom.
