【摘要】 大学英语大班教学是目前我国高等院校中普遍采用的外语教学的主要形式。研究大班英语教学中的问题,寻找解决问题的途径,对改进我国大学英语教学的现状,深化高等教育改革,提高人才培养的质量有积极的作用。 大学英语大班教学在我国已有许多年的历史,其中存在的问题也由来已久,但由于大学英语教学在过去一直强调以知识传授为中心,教学方法主要以讲授法为主,班级的规模对这种教学思想和教学模式的冲击并不明显,因此,大班英语教学中的许多问题没有引起足够的重视。近年来,随着高等学校扩招的实施,大学英语教学的班级规模越来越大;同时,随着素质教育的理念对学校教育的逐步渗透和大学英语教学的目标从传授语言知识向培养学生语言交际能力的转变,大班英语教学中的问题变得越发突出,直接影响着教学质量的提高。因此,如何解决大班教学的问题,改进和完善大班教学的形式,就成了提高大学英语教学质量的关键。本论文在借鉴国内外学者有关大班英语教学理论和实践成果的基础上,对大学英语大班教学中存在的问题做了进一步归纳和分析,并在实践的基础上得出了一些解决问题的办法和措施。另外,还提出了三个有待进一步讨论和研究的问题。 全文共分四个部分: 在第一部分中,作者首先简要地回顾了班级教学的历史,并在引证国内外学者对大班教学所做出的不同概念的基础上,对大学英语大班教学的概念进行了重新认定,对我国大学英语大班教学产生的原因进行了分析。 在第二部分中,作者从教学活动的主体、教学环境、教学模式、教学反馈等四个方面对大学英语大班教学的现状做了分析,指出了大班教学中存在的九个突出问题:师资队伍数量不足,教师素质有待提高;学生基础薄弱,程度参差不齐,教学要求难以统一;座位编排不合理,难以组织教学活动;教学设备不足,设备利用率低;班级规模大,课堂管理效果差;师生个别交流少,对教学对象了解不够;教学方法陈旧,教学手段单一;作业批阅不及时,教学反馈不理想;学业成绩测试试题质量差,应试现象严重。 在第三部分中,作者立足教学实际,分析并提出了解决大学英语大班教学问题的十个方面的对策,即加强教师业务培训,提高教师专业素质;发挥学生学习的主动性,培养学生的自主学习能力;合理编组,发挥小组在课堂管理和课堂教学中的作用:提高教学媒体的利用率,丰富课堂教学的手段;根据英语语言能力编班,强化课堂教学和管理;针对不同层次的班级运用相应的教学模式;实行分课型大、小班授课方式;认真研究教学实际,精心设计教学活动;改进作业评阅方式,切实提高作业质量;完善测试形式,强化测试功能。 在第四部分中,作者从宏观的角度出发,提出了留待进一步探讨的、涉及高等教育体制和决策的、影响大学英语教学改革的三个问题:教学和科研的关系处理不当;官本位现象严重;师资队伍建设不力。

【Abstract】 Teaching College English in big classes is the main format of foreign language teaching commonly adopted in colleges and universities in our country at present. To discuss the problems arisen in this format and elucidate feasible solutions to them will play active roles in improving English teaching in colleges and universities and deepening the reformation of high education so as to cultivate more high qualified talents.The format of teaching college English in big classes has a long history in our country, and the problems of it have been existing for years up to now. In the past college English teaching kept focusing on the linguistic knowledge centered mode, and the method of teaching was accordingly the spoon-feeding. The mode and the method were affected little by the size of classes, so the hidden problems in teaching failed to catch enough attention. With the enrolment expansion in colleges and universities in recent years, classes of English teaching become bigger and bigger. Meanwhile, the quality system education is carried on more and more widely, and the goal of college English teaching is transforming from imparting linguistic knowledge to cultivating students’ communicative competence. The problems are becoming more clearly and doing great harm to the quality of college English teaching. Therefore, how to solve them in order to perfect the format works as the decisive factor to improve the quality of college English teaching. On the basis of the results of the theories and practice of college English teaching in big classes by the experts at home and abroad, this thesis manages to make a further induction and analysis of the problems in college English teaching in big classes, and works out some solutions and countermeasures to them. It finally puts forward three problems that need further discussion and study.The thesis consists four parts:In the first part, the thesis briefly recalls the history of class teaching system, and renews the concept of college English teaching in big classes on the basis of different notions of teaching in big classes by the experts at home and abroad. Then it probes in the reasons why college English teaching in big classes is widely adopted in our country.In the second part, the thesis analyses the situation of the college English teaching in big classes, and points out the nine problems that concern with teaching subjects, teaching environment, teaching mode and feedback: The quantity of teachers is insufficient and the quality in available needs to be improved. Teaching can not be carried out according to the standard requirements because of the weak bases and various levels of students. The way in which seats are arranged in classrooms is not suitable for performing teaching activities.The means of teaching is monotonous because of the lack of language teaching instruments and the low rate of making use of the available. It is difficult to organize the teaching activities because of the large number of students and limited teaching space. The individual communication between teachers and students is so little that teachers can not understand much about aspirations and needs of students. The methods used in teaching are traditional and out of date, and as a result, the teaching tasks can not be well fulfilled. Teaching feedback is not ideal because the papers of students can not be corrected and commented in time. The papers of schooling achievement tests are poorly designed and organized, and the examination-oriented phenomenon dominates the teaching.In the third part, the thesis, on the basis of the teaching practice, puts forward ten countermeasures according to the problems in college English teaching in big classes: Strengthen the teachers’ professional training and improve their specialized aptitude. Give full play to the students’ initiative of study and cultivate their ability of self-teaching. Form groups reasonably in class and play their roles completely in classroom teaching and management. Make good use of the teaching mediums
