用先进的语料库工具推进英语教学—首都师范大学英语教学语料库的设计与建设

摘要

该文以首都师范大学英语教学语料库及其索引软件的设计与开发项目为依托,侧重从英语教学语料库的初期设计与建设方面进行一种探索式的实践研究.该文首先对语料库与索引软件的发展历史和语料库在数据驱动式学习(data-driven learning),互惠式学习(reciprocal learning),教学大纲设计和语言测试中的应用进行了文献综述.通过对建构主义学习理论与交际式教学方法的分析,提出语料库辅助语言教学(corpus-assisted language learning)为实现建构主义学习理论与交际式教学方法的结合提供了环境基础,从而为英语教学语料库的开发提供了理论论据.其次,该文对国内外现有的一些英语语料库以及它们在英语教学中的运用进行了横向的比较与分析,在此基础上论证了开发英语教学语料库的必要性与实践意义.然后,该文围绕
