内容简介
  随着我国经济、文化和科技的不断发展,社会对大学生的英语水平提出了更高的要求,大学英语教学改革已成为社会关注的热点之一。为了推动大学英语教学改革,教育部在总结近年来教学改革经验的基础上,对2004年颁布的《大学英语课程教学要求(试行)》进行了全面修订,并于2007年8月正式颁布了《大学英语课程教学要求》。与以往的《大学英语教学大纲》相比,新的《大学英语课程教学要求》从以下三个方面为大学英语教学带来了新的变化:1.培养目标的变化。《大学英语课程教学要求》提出,大学英语要培养学生的英语综合应用能力,在坚持其通用基础学科定位的同时,提出了与专业学习相结合的专门用途英语,以及以人文、国际交流为核心的文化素质课程的定位;2.教学思想的变化。提出了自主学习的思想,鼓励学生自主选择学习内容和学习方式;3.教学模式的变化。鼓励在教和学的过程中使用以计算机为基础的教育技术,拓展英语学习的渠道,增加语言练习的机会,提高语言输入和输出的质量。
