摘要
鉴于传统意义上的大学英语已不能满足新时期大学生英语学习的需要,西安交通大学从2016年9月起开设了面向二年级本科生的两门通用学术英语课程。本文从设计思路和课程实践两个方面对其中的"学术英语读写"课程进行介绍和总结。该课程采用宏观与微观相结合的ESP体裁分析方法,贯彻以学习者为中心的支架式教学思路,使学生通过完成项目来达到学习目标。这门课程的教学实践和学生反馈证明,为本科生开设通用学术英语课程不仅能满足新时代的需求,而且对提升其英语学术写作水平十分有效。
To meet college students’ demands for English learning in the new age, Xi’an Jiaotong University offered two new courses("EGAP listening and speaking" and" EGAP reading and writing") to non-English major sophomores in September 2016. This paper reports the design concepts and teaching practice of EGAP reading and writing course. In this course, teachers facilitated students’ learning by means of scaffolding. Students learned to analyze research articles by doing ESP genre-analyses at both macro and micro levels, and they also carried out a project and wrote a term paper on the basis of the project. Practice of this course and students’ feedback demonstrate that academic English courses for undergraduates can efficiently improve students’ academic writing ability in English and can therefore meet their English learning needs in the new age.
