图式理论在初中英语阅读课堂的应用_英语论文

Application of Schema Theory in English reading class of junior high school

摘要

本文介绍了图式理论的相关研究以及主要的观点， 指出了现有的英语阅读教学的方法中存在的一些问题，并从图式构建的角度，对英语教学提出了一些建议。初中学生处于英语学习最基础的阶段，引导他们将图式应用于阅读理解当中去，可以提高他们英语阅读的速度和阅读的有效性。阅读理解并非"自上而下"或者"自下而上"这样单一的过程，它是这两者相互作用的结果。图式的建构也是基于内容图示和形式图式的相互作用。所以，要将图式理论充分利用到阅读理解当中，就需要这几个方面的相互作用。而本文正是基于这样的论点展开的。
