【摘要】 随着我国经济改革和对外开放的逐渐深入,社会对英语专业人才的要求已从单纯的语言交流走向多元化,社会需要的是既懂英语又懂得某方面业务知识的复合型人才。因此,英语专业课程设计应从以培养单纯的语言技能为主要目标转变为以培养语言技能加专业知识为主要目标,即培养英语复合型人才。高等学校英语专业英语教学大纲(2000)明确指出21世纪我国高等学校英语专业人才应具有扎实的基本功、宽广的知识面、一定的相关专业知识、较强的能力和较高的素质。本文旨在运用理论分析和实证研究的方法,对辽宁石油化工大学英语专业的课程设计进行改革。为了较为科学系统地分析该校英语专业课程设计,本项研究采用了定性和定量分析相结合的方法,以问卷调查和访谈的方式来探究学习者的学习目的和学习需求,并探索性地对该校英语专业课程大纲设计进行改进。新大纲按公共课、基础(含专业基础课)课、专业(选修及专业方向)课、任选(含学科任选)课、专题教育、实践教学六个模块结成框架。针对该校英语专业学生基础较为薄弱的特点,增加基础阶段(一年级和二年级)语言基本功的训练,打好扎实的语言基本功,注重各项语言技能的全面培养。学生在高年级阶段学习英语专业知识和相关专业知识,进一步扩大知识面,增强文化意识,提高综合运用英语进行交际的能力。在学生培养过程中注重课内学习与课外自主学习相结合、加强社会实践基地建设,鼓励学生积极参加与专业相关的各种社会实践活动,加强学生思维能力和创新能力的培养。希望本项研究可以在某种程度上有助于英语专业课程设计研究,进一步推动辽宁石油化工大学英语专业课程设计改革的发展。更多还原

【Abstract】 China’s economic reform and opening-up calls for talented personnel with multi-abilities who have a good command of English and master the relevant specialty knowledge in some fields. Therefore,the objective of curriculum design for English majors should be shifted to cultivate both language proficiency and specialty knowledge,that is,to cultivate talented English personnel with multi-abilities.The National Curriculum for English Majors(2000) points out explicitly that English talents are required to "have solid basic language skills,a broad knowledge scope,a relevant specialty knowledge,superior proficiency and higher quality".In this thesis,developing a new curriculum for English majors in LUPCT(Liaoning University of Petroleum and Chemical Technology) is justified from both theoretical and empirical grounds.A mixed-method research by both quantitative and qualitative approaches is employed so as to analyze the English major curriculum in LUPCT in a scientific and systematic way.Questionnaires and interviews with teachers and students are conducted to identify what the students’ learning objective and learning needs are.A newly shaped curriculum characterized by modularization is designed in the light of the data collected, which contains six modes:Public Courses,Basic Courses(including Specialized Basic Courses),Specialized Courses(including Elective and Specialty-oriented Courses),Optional Courses(including Specialized Elective and Public Elective Courses),Special Education,and Practical Training.In view of a low level of basic language proficiency of English majors in LUPCT,more basic courses concerning Language training in basic skills are added in the first and the second academic year so as to reinforce students’ language proficiency.English professional knowledge learning with a combination of creativity cultivation and improving cultural awareness is carried on in the third and fourth academic year.The proportion between classroom learning and extracurricular autonomous learning and construction of practice bases should be given special attention to.Students are encouraged to participate in social practice which is relevant to specialty aiming at cultivating students’ innovation and analyzing ability.The eventual purpose of this thesis is hopefully to contribute to the research of curriculum design and to promote the reform of curriculum design for English major in LUPCT.更多还原
