中学英语课堂教学中促进学生自主学习的策略摘要：传统的英语课堂教学以教师为中心、以“掌握基本知识和基本技能”为首要目标，难以帮助学生养成主动学习英语的习惯。本文在分析当前英语课堂教学现状的基础上,倡导旨在培养学生自主学习能力的英语自主学习课堂教学模式,并提出了促进学生英语课堂自主学习的策略。关键词：自主学习；英语教学；动机；自我调节学习1.Introduction1.1ThebackgroundofautonomouslearningItisurgenttorecognizethedrawbacksoftraditionalEnglishteachingstylesandtomakesomereformstocultivatestudents’abilityofindependentlearning.MostEnglishteacherslaytoomuchstressongrammarandvocabularyteaching.Teacherstakeinstructionastheprincipalthingandareeagerforquicksuccessandinstantbenefitsandteachforthesakeofcollegeentranceexamination.Onthebasisofsubjectiveexperience,teachersstilldominatemostoftheclasstime,decidesthecontentstoteachandcontrolthepaceofclassinclassrooms.Ontheotherhand,thoughstudentsaretheparticipantsoflearning,theyhavelittleornoopportunitytocommunicateinEnglishwithclassmatesandexpresstheirviews,forthereasonthatclassroomteachingcentersmainlyontheclass,teacherandthetextbook.Theyjustsitthere,listeningtotheteacherandtakingnotes.Furthermore,memorizingwords,recitinggrammarandfinishingexercisesarethestudents’majortask.ThetraditionalteachingmodeinEnglishclasswilldirectlyresultinhighmarksincollegeentranceexaminationbutlowcommunicativeabilityandimpedestudents’autonomy.ItisacommonphenomenoninourcountrythatmanystudentshavelearnedEnglishforalmosttenyears,butstilldifficulttocommunicatewithotherEnglishlearnersespeciallyforeigners.Autonomouslearninggivesusaninsightintochangingthissituation.Throughthisapproach,studentscanmakestudyplanbythemselves,chooselearningmaterialsandformtheirownlearningstyles.Autonomouslearnerscanobtainknowledgesactively,canprepareforthetaskwell.Furthermore,theycanseekforhelpfromteachersinlearningprocess.Mostimportantly,thisapproachcanmotivatestudentsinEnglishclassandregulatethemselvesinEnglishlearning.Itisessentialtostudyautonomouslearning,noticethecurrentsituationandnecessityandfindstrategiestopromoteautonomouslearninginEnglishclass.1.2ThebriefintroductiontothisstudyThisthesisrestrictsthetopiconhowtopromoteautonomouslearninginChinesemiddleschoolsbyoptimizingclassroomEnglishteaching.ItaimstoapplythetheoriesofautonomouslearningtoclassroomEnglishteachinginChinesemiddleschools.AftertheanalysisoftraditionalEnglishteachingmodeswhichstillexistinthefieldoflanguageteachingandthedefects,theauthoradvocatesanewEnglishteachingpatternwhichaimsatdevelopingthestudents’abilityofautonomouslearning.Thethesisintroducesthebackground,conceptandrelevantresearches,statesbrieflythefactorsaffectingonautonomouslearninginEnglishclass,andelaboratesonfourwaystopromotestudents’autonomouslearninginEnglishclass.1.3ThelayoutofthepaperFourpartsareinvolvedinthisthesis.PartOneservesasanintroductioninwhichthebackgroundofautonomouslearning,abriefintroductiontothisthesisandthelayoutofthispaperareunderdiscussion.PartTwoisLiteratureReview,whichfallsintotwoparts:adetailedintroductiontotheconceptofAutonomousLearningandrelevantresearchathomeandabroad.PartThreeisthemainbodyofthisthesis,whichconcentratesonthepromotionofautonomouslearninginmiddleschoolEnglishclass:factorsaffectingautonomouslearningandstrategiestopromotestudents’autnomouslearninginEnglishclass.Thelastpartisaconclusionofthispaper,includingmainfinding...
