在英语教学中培养学生合作竞争意识的新探究

广西南宁市南宁外国语学校 林万春

在英语教学中培养学生合作竞争学习意识，有利于更好地激发学生学习英语的热情，提高英语学习的乐趣与效率，同时也符合社会发展对人才的要求。在小学低年级英语教学中，笔者尝试从以下几个方面培养学生合作竞争学习意识。
一、在情景对话中培养学生合作竞争学习意识
在情景对话中有角色的分工，一般我以四人为一组，如果遇到两个人的对话还可一拆为二。我让组内学生自己挑选角色，这就为学生踏上社会后承担一定的社会角色起了模拟的作用。
例如，在学习高中英语必修①Unit 1 Friendship这一课时，I first get the Ss to listen to what a Canadian say about making friends. After listening, please talk about the two questions in groups of 4. Try to use the following expressions. 学生挑选完角色以后，精心操练和表演这段对话。
1 Do you agree with her?
2 What do you think of people from foreign countries?
Agreement
Disagreement
I think so.
I don’t think so.
I agree.
I don’t agree
That’s correct. Exactly
Of course not.
That’s exactly my opinion.
I’m afraid not.
You’re quite right.
I don’t think you are right.
学生在与他人合作表演的过程中，学会正确评价自己，学会理智地协调相互合作的关系，树立起对未来社会生活需要担任的特殊角色的责任感。合作竞争学习为学生健康的发展提供了一面“镜子”。
二、在合作创作中培养学生合作竞争学习意识
英语教学中，我常把音乐、美术和手工等融合进来，扩大了英语教学的内涵，使学生感受到学习英语是一件愉快的事情，有利于激发学生的学习积极性和潜能。在学习高中英语必修①Unit 2 English around the world这一课时，我是这样设计两个任务：
Task1 Make notes about the paragraphs for the writing. Work in groups of four.
T: Turn to Page 53. Read the Writing task and tell what you are expected to do.
T: What can you learn?
S: We are asked to write a passage about “My Experience of Learning English”. We can write it on four aspects. What we need to do is to make a list of ideas for each paragraph.
T: Good! Work in groups of four to make notes.
My problems
Ideas for improvement
Why I like English
My future with English
Listening Writing words
Listen to BBC.Get an e-pal.Memorize new words every morning.
Listen to music and movies.
Enjoy original works.
Travel.
Help me realize my dream.
Task2 Write an article.
After their discussion.
T: Now, write an article according to your notes in twenty minutes and hand it in.
[The Sample is below.]
I have made great progress in English learning. But at first, I had many difficulties in learning English. I found listening really hard. Sometimes, it’s just impossible to understand. Besides, my written English was not very good. And it was hard for me to memory new words.
How could I improve my English? Take listening as example. I bought a radio and listen to BBC English every morning. The more you listen to English, the easier it becomes. At the same time, I got an English e-pal and my written English improved quickly. Meanwhile, I made a plan to memory new words. Every evening memory twenty new words and review them the next morning. Then put them up on the wall to review in my spare time.
English is my good friend. With the help of English I can listen to English music and movies. I’m very interested in English novels. Thanks to English I can enjoy original work. Also it will make my journey comfortable, if I travel in English speaking countries.
My dream is to be a doctor. It’s necessary for a doctor to be good at English. I love English. It will help me realize my dream.
学生展开丰富的想像，互相合作，扬长避短，优势互补，创作出了一幅幅富有幻想的画。我从学生创作的美丽的大上海的画中，可以感受到他们思维的活跃。同时，学生在合作创作画的过程中体会到集体智慧的巨大力量。这种相互探讨、相互启发的学习，使学生思维活跃，联想丰富，注意力集中，从而更易于理解和掌握新知识；这种合作学习还有助于培养学生的创造力和开朗、合作、乐观、坦率的性格。
三、在模拟场景中培养学生合作竞争学习意识
让学生在模拟的真实语境中，通过小组内成员合作努力与小组间的竞争，培养学生合作竞争学习意识，有助于学生相互支持和优势互补。例如，在学习高中英语必修①Unit 2 English around the world这一课时，In this way, I plan to revise patterns for language difficulties in communication.
T: A (loudly), can you lend me your dictionary (lowly)?
Sa: Pardon?
T: Can you tell some similar expressions?
Sa: I beg your pardon? / I don’t understand. / Could you say that again, please?/ Could you repeat that, please? / Can you speak more slowly, please? Sorry, I can’t follow you. / How do you spell it, please?
T: Great! Turn to Page 48. Read the expressions loudly and try to memory them.
Task 2 Make a dialogue, using the expressions. Work in pairs.
T: Turn to Page 49. There are three situations. Read them carefully to know the situations.
Ss read the three situations to decide which one they would like to choose.
T: Make a dialogue with your partner, using the expressions above.
A few minutes later.
T: Which group will come and act you dialogue in class?
Ss: We will.
Sample dialogue for Situation1 A-foreigner B-you
A: Excuse me, but I can’t find my friends. Can you help me?
B: Could say that again ,please？
A: Oh, sorry. I said that I need to find my friends.
B: Oh, I see. Where are they?
A: They are waiting for me at the Science Museum. But I can’t find it.
B: Sorry, I can’t follow you. Can you speak more slowly, please?
A: Sorry. I said I want to go to the Science Museum.
B: Well, wale along this street and take the first left turn on your left. Walk on until you reach the gate.
Sample dialogue for Situation2 A—your father B—your mother C—you D—waitress
A: Excuse me, but I can’t find the toilet. Can you help me?
D: Er… toilet? It’s over there.
B: Restroom? But we don’t need to have a rest.
C: Oh, sorry. But where is the WC?
D: Pardon?
C: W-C.
D: Sorry. There is no WC. Oh, I see. I know what you want. It is on the second floor.
C: Thank you very much.
Go up two floors.
AB: No toilet but empty rooms. Where is the toilet?
C: We are in the USA. The second floor? Let’s go downstairs. It’s on the first floor.
Sample dialogue for Situation3 A-your teacher B-you
A: Now for homework, you must write a dialogue about difficult language problems. Is that clear?
B: Sorry, Miss Li, but Li Lin can’t follow you.
A: Pardon?
B: Li Lin doesn’t understand what you said.
A: Oh, I see. Well let me say it in a different way.
学生小组间相互展开激烈的竞争。我让合作较为成功的一组上台表演。这组成员往往很自豪，增加了小组的凝聚力。同时，我鼓励其他三组赶超这一组。通过模拟场景，我让学生得到这样一个启示：小组优秀成绩的取得，取决于全体组员的共同努力。
