Constructivism learning theory and English teaching( 三 )
1.2. Teachers should organize collaborative learning, discussion and exchange when possible. In traditional teaching, in order to improve students' thinking ability, they usually advocate "independent thinking", which exercises students' ability to solve problems independently, but each learner only carries out their own information processing in their own learning space, and their observation ability, cooperation ability and communication ability have not been developed, especially in English language learning for the purpose of communication. Constructivist learning theory emphasizes the importance of cooperative conversation between teachers and students and between students. Therefore, teachers should encourage students to use their language knowledge, communicate effectively in specific situations, and organize students' cooperative learning.
1.3. Teachers should set the teaching of language knowledge in a specific language situation, urge students to connect the new knowledge with the original knowledge, and endow the new knowledge with some meaning. In traditional teaching, vocabulary, sentence patterns and grammar are always taught in a single - situation, ignoring the flexible use of English in different situations under real conditions. Constructivist learning theory holds that learning is carried out in a certain situation, that is, under the social and cultural background. It is very necessary to create a situation in English teaching. Situational teaching can stimulate students' imagination, and learners can use relevant experience to understand the new knowledge they have learned, such as learning. Teachers put the learning environment. In the situation consistent with the reality, it not only encourages learners to explore, but also allows students to explore in different situations Learn to use the language knowledge and skills learned in communication situations.
In short, English is a practical basic course. The mastery of language skills depends on students' individual practice, and the teaching effect largely depends on students' subjective initiative and participation. Constructivist learning theory plays a great guiding role in English teaching, emphasizing that students are subjects and meaning constructors; It emphasizes that teachers should be student-centered in the teaching process, create situations, and encourage students' cooperative learning and conversational communication. Based on constructivist learning theory, English teachers must change their roles in English teaching, take students as the center, contact the actual situation, and encourage students' conversational communication and cooperation. They should not only meet students' learning requirements, but also effectively cultivate students' autonomous learning ability and autonomous knowledge construction ability, so as to meet the new requirements for talent training in the new era.
