摘  要

图式理论是一种结构，也是一种框架。它将所学的课本知识有效地转换成记忆画面，有助于提高学习效率。现在普遍存在英语写作耗时长、效率低的现象。在对相关的文献进行了梳理之后, 笔者归纳整理了目前写作教学的现状和存在的主要问题。与此同时还梳理了国内外学者对图式理论进行的相关研究,结果发现将图式理论应用于英语写作教学不仅可以改变传统的英语写作教学,并且还能有效地提高学生的英语写作能力。因此，本篇章主要研究如何把图式理论应用于英语写作教学当中。教师可以首先让学生展开词汇的联想，然后在词汇的基础上展开短语的联想，在短语的基础上再进行句子的联想。图式理论可以改变传统的教学法，从传统的填鸭式教学到启发式教育。

Abstract

Actually, schema is a structure and a frame. It can help students draw the learned knowledge into painting which can promote the efficiency of study. Currently, there is a phenomenon of wasting time and low efficiency. After organizing the related literature review, the author summarizes the teaching situation of English writing and the existing problem. At the same time, the author has done some related research on schema theory, the result states that the schema can not only change the traditional teaching method, but can improve the ability of English writing efficiently. Through the study, by applying schema theory into the teaching of writing, it can improve students’ writing ability. After many researches, we find that schema is a suitable learning method to improve students’ writing skill. Consequently, in this paper we mainly study how to put schema into the teaching of English writing. Firstly, teachers should help students expand the conception of vocabulary, based on which, students can expand the conception of phrase. And then, they can launch the conception of sentences. This theory can change the traditional teaching method: from forced-feeding method of teaching to heuristic education.
