Teaching Plan for Unit 3——Computers
Period 4 Reading—Who Am I? 教学设计
By Zhou Jin（周晶） 鄂南高中
一、教学设计思路
本节课我采用自主型教学和任务型教学的方法，让学生对课文进行阅读理解。自主型教学是学生在老师的指导下自主地进行学习。任务型教学是英语新课标中倡导的一种英语教学方法。根据新课标的规定标准及课堂教学设计的特点，本节课的设计思路如下：
导 入：教师首先以图片的形式复习有关电脑的词汇和计算机的发展历程，让学生看文章标题和图片来预测语篇的内容，培养学生的预测能力；并让学生讨论计算机的应 用领域，为计算机产品按发展的时间顺序排队。教师播放课文录音，请同学快速地阅读课文，并回答教师提出的与课文有关的问题。然后让学生仔细阅读课文的每一 段，回答教师设计好的问题和任务。其间，教师让学生以不同的方式朗读课文。然后，教师通过让学生进行短文填空的方式来帮助学生总结阅读课文，并检验他们是 否理解文章。最后教师布置一项讨论的任务，让学生用语言来表达出未来电脑的模样及应用，激发他们的想象力和兴趣，升华主题。
