数码与网络环境下的外语教学

章节摘录

　　The participant of AR， according to previous study， varies from differentoccupations in the society， such as nurse， business people. However， in the areaof educational research， AR has changed the teacher s role from "a consumer ofsomeones research results" to "teacher as researcher" （Johnson & Button，2000; Stenhouse， 1975）， which has turned out to be a revolutionary slogan inthe history of AR. This paper argues that we should involve both teacher andstudents into the study of AR participants. In addition to the idea of "teacher asresearcher"， "student as researcher" could be conceptualized in the discussions ofAR-related issues.　 Shneiderman （1997） said "we must do more than teach students to surf thenet; we must also teach them how to make waves". We know "making waves"should be designed in a variety of activities. So， the involvement of studentsparticipation in CALL activities should correspond to the notion of "student asresearcher". On the side of the students， there are three main interpretationsassociated with their learning in China： autonomous learning， research-orientedlearning and collaborative learning， which also represent the mainstream of studyon learners （Pang， 2003）. Moreover， a large number of terms —— problem-basedlearning， project-based learning， action learning， inquiry learning， research-oriented learning， self-regulated learning， active-learning， self-planned learning，and autonomous learning and so on （Pang， 2003） are coined to describe theirlearning though they resemble each other quite a lot， which results in the fact thatmost readers feel puzzled about distinguishing one from another. Is it possible tounify all terms with one concept？ Consequently， the introduction of AR seems necessary and significant. InCALL activities， AR can be interpreted in a broad and a narrow sense. In anarrow sense， AR is teachers （sometimes other practitioners， or even advancedresearchers） attempt at trying out ideas in practice as a means of improvementand as a means of enriching understanding about the curriculum， teaching， andlearning in search for the applications of computer. Broadly speaking， CALLactivity includes the actions of both CALL-practitioners and CALL-learners. ForCALL-learners， AR can be an umbrellas term identifying a project-oriented，task-based or inquiry-based learning activities in the technology-enhancedlanguage course and programs.

　　This book is a collection of selected papers from the 2006 InternationalSymposium of Computer Assisted Language Learning （CALL） （June 2-4，Beijing）. The symposium was initiated and coordinated by Gary Motteram of theIATEFL Learning Technologies SIG committee， Wang Wei of the NationalResearch Centre for Foreign Language Education of Beijing Foreign StudiesUniversity （BFSU）， and Liu Xiangdong of Foreign Language Teaching andResearch Press （FLTRP） and China English Language Education Association（CELEA）. The four above organizations they represented were the co-hosts andorganizers of the symposium.

The symposiums officialwebsite http：//call2006， fltrp， corn/ plays a very important role in providingcrucial information to the participants before the symposium and in giving theman opportunity to discuss and share their experiences after the symposium.　　Wen Qiufang of National Research Centre for Foreign Language Education ofBFSU talked about corpus-based learner language research in her keynote speechwhile Gu Yueguo of the Institute of Beiwai Online Education of BFSU discussedissues arising out of his five-year hands-on work on EFL online education inChina. Among the three invited keynote speakers from abroad， Phil Hubbard ofStanford University （US） lectured on CALL teacher education， Gary Motteramof Manchester University （UK） introduced social computing， and Mike Levy ofGriffith University （Australia） reviewed CALL research in detail.
