On the Differences of English Teaching Between Chinese and Australian Teachers in Higher Vocational College: A Cultural Perspective

摘要

随着全球经济、文化、教育、科技的发展，高等职业教育的国际化进程明显加快，一大批高职院校与澳大利亚合作办学，引进澳大利亚先进的教育资源，提高办学质量。为此，我国高职院校在在课程结构、培养模式等发面做了重大调整。在新的培养模式下，英语教学成为合作教育中重要的一环，授课方式由中方教师独立授课变为中方与澳方教师合作授课。合作教学导致了两种教学文化之间、外来教学文化与学生学习文化之间的摩擦，在教学实践中，澳方教师教学文化与中方学生结合表现出一定的不适应性，导致合作教学效果不佳。
　　 本文将研究中澳双方教师英语课堂教学差异、寻找造成这种差异的文化原因，继而研究两种教学文化与中国高职学生学习文化的适应情况，最后提出提升高职英语教学效果的政策建议。本研究分为六个部分，第一部分介绍了本文的选题背景、研究意义与结构安排;第二部分为文献综述，首先介绍了高职院校中澳合作教学的背景，其次界定了相关概念，然后回顾了中外学者关于中澳合作教学的相关论文;第三部分中，笔者将介绍本文的研究问题，研究对象以及研究方法，并对调查数据进行分析;第四部分，笔者以刘庆昌教授对教学文化定义与内涵的界定为研究框架，找出了中澳教师课堂教学差异，以此为基础分析了教学文化差别与形成这种差别的更深层次原因;第五部分中采用问卷调查与教师访谈等形式调查了高职学生的学习文化，并研究中澳两种教学文化与高职学生学习文化的适应情况。第六部分在前几部分研究成果的基础上，总结本研究的结果与局限性，并根据中澳合作班与普通班教学模式的不同提出了改善高职英语教学效果的建议。
