Abstract:

Learning community has become a new way of learning, and online learning community provides a new approach for college English reading. Based on the theories of constructivism and connectivism, the study explores college English reading course both in theory and in practice. A model of online learning community for college English reading class was firstly proposed, and then implemented in pedagogical practice for one semester among a college English teacher and the students who had passed CET 4. The teacher first instructed the students to collect and select suitable learning materials on the Internet. Then, the students divided their work, read the selected materials in depth and made slides to assist with their oral presentation in class. At the stage of class report, the teacher guided the students to interact and share with each other their thoughts and encouraged them to reflect upon their own reading habit, thus laying foundation for further study. Students’ feedback reflected a certain degree of improvement in terms of learner autonomy and cooperation, proving the validity and effectiveness of the model proposed. This study provides a useful reference for the follow-up college English curriculum reform.

Keywords: online learning community; learner autonomy; CET-4; follow-up college English curriculum

摘要:

学习共同体已经成为一种新的学习方式,网络学习共同体为大学英语阅读提供了新的思路。本文以建构主义、联通主义为理论视角,针对网络环境下的大学英语阅读课程进行理论和实践上的探索,建构大学英语阅读网络学习共同体模型;同时,以某高校大学英语后续课程为案例,探讨阅读网络学习共同体的建构与实施中的选材、加工、共享和反思等具体问题,运用实证数据说明该学习共同体模型有助于学生提升阅读素养,培养其自主学习、合作学习等能力,希望能为大学英语后续课程改革提供借鉴。
