Description

Join us to find out more about task-based teaching approaches for teaching Chinese as a foreign language online

公开课: 在线教学与任务型教学的接口

Abstract: The basic principle of the task-based approach is “to learn by doing". As both understanding and expression are manifestations of language use, the realisation of input by understanding and output by expression is the embodiment of "to learn by doing". Online teaching involves two forms of interaction: human-computer interaction and interpersonal interaction. Both forms can be implemented through input tasks and output tasks. From this aspect we can view the interface between online teaching and task-based teaching. Prof Wu Zhongwei will give a brief theoretical explanation of this idea. Following this, Xu Jing will demonstrate a model of teaching design and planning for a comprehensive Mandarin lesson for beginners, focusing on the topic "buying things".

提要:任务型教学的基本精神是“用中学”,理解和表达都是语言使用的表现形式。在理解中实现输入,在表达中实现输出,正是“用中学”精神的体现。在线教学包括人机互动和人际互动两种形式,人机互动和人际互动这两种形式与输入型任务和输出型任务具有一定的对应关系,从这种对应关系中我们或许可以看到在线教学与任务型教学的接口。吴中伟将对这一思路进行简要的理论阐释,许静将在这一思路下以“买东西”为主题展示一堂初级汉语综合课的教学设计。
