The role of language teacher has changed from a dominator and a director in traditional language teaching to a facilitator in the teaching of using multimedia as assistance. In traditional language teaching, the teacher is at the center of the class and teaches language with academic purposes. In contrast, in the teaching of using multimedia as assistance, the teacher is a facilitator, "monitor, counselor, consultant, or orchestrator, and initiator". [18] By using multimedia he/she creates more authentic language environment to facilitate his/her students' learning.
"The teacher also works with very different kinds of teaching materials if he is to encourage learners to communicate in order to develop their own language learning --- rather than to learn language in order to communicate. In other words, the teacher will teach a 'living language' through the textbook instead of teaching the textbook. In traditional English teaching mode, the book often reigns alone, and the teacher often teaches the book, neglecting the language which lives around us. By using multimedia as an English teaching tool, the teacher will use of every source possible to facilitate learning."[19] He will use audiotapes, videotapes, CDs and so on to supplement the textbook.3. Some misunderstandings in using multimedia
But in fact there are some misunderstandings in using multimedia. Some teachers think that using multimedia is pointing and clicking the mouse. They know that chalk and blackboard are out-of-date. They type the content of the textbooks into the computer. In the whole class, they still thoroughly explain the grammar and the words that would bring difficulties and translate the important and difficult sentences to students or ask the students themselves to translate them. Even some teachers read aloud the content on the screen from the beginning to the end to the students. They ignore that "teaching is guiding and facilitating learning, enabling the learner to learn, setting the condition for learning (Douglas Brown, 1983)". [20] As for students, they are busier with copying the script than before, because with the help of multimedia, everything to be taught has been typed into computers before class, so a lot of time can be saved and therefore, more things can be crammed into them. Therefore, there is no time left for them to think or to communicate. English is still learned for examination not for communication. So, for them English is still a burden and a nuisance.共2页: 1 [2] 下一页 论文出处(作者):
