2018年3月26日晚，外国语学院院长、党总支书记陶文好教授在乐育楼C212为本科学生举办了一场名为“新时代英语专业教育模式重构(上)--践行十九大文化自信”的专题讲座。
陶文好教授通过互动的形式，首先向同学们提出“为什么全民学外语”的问题，随后提出了英语专业教育现状的四大问题以及英语所应学习的七大模块等。他认为，新时代下的英语专业教育模式，应体现民族性与国际性的统一，既要保留现有的英语专业国际课程体系，更要融入更多中华元素类课程，形成一种新型的符合我国国情的英语专业的教育模式，构建具有中华元素的英语专业课程体系，如中华文明类课程、中华文化类等，以促进英语专业的可持续发展。同时，改革需注重全人教育，强调让英语专业学生通过对英语和汉语语言和文化的学习，努力成为全面发展、具有民族自信、通晓英汉语言文化知识和国际视野的人才。
作为在世界舞台上发挥重要作用的英语，其人才的培养也不断面临各种新的机遇和挑战。深化现有的国际化英语专业课程体系以及构建具有中华元素的英语专业课程体系无疑是当代英语教育模式的重构目标。
Reconceptualizing English Major Education Pattern under the Background of New Era: Fulfilling the Cultural Confidence of the 19th National Congress of CPC
On March 26th, 2018, Professor Tao Wenhao, the Dean and the General Party Branch Secretary of SFL, gave students a lecture named Reconceptualizing English Major Education Pattern under the Background of New Era: Fulfilling the Cultural Confidence of the 19th National Congress of CPC. This is the first class given by the General Party Branch Secretary of our school this semester.
Through interaction, Professor Tao firstly introduced a question that why there exists a nationwide enthusiasm for English learning. Then he put forward four main problems of current situation of English major education, and stressed seven aspects students are required to study in learning English. In his view, the English major education pattern under the background of new era should embody both national character and international character, which means that the English curriculum system should be integrated into Chinese element courses of Chinese civilization, Chinese culture, Chinese literature, Chinese history and Chinese philosophy in English under the premise of remaining the existing National English Standard Curriculum so as to form an English curriculum system suitable for our national conditions. Meanwhile, he emphasized that the talents cultivation should focus on holistic education, and the necessity of cultivating English talents with all-round development, self-confidence, and knowledge of English, Chinese, culture and international view.
The English has been playing quite an important role in the international stage, which brings both opportunities and challenges for the cultivation of English talents. It is beyond doubt that deepening the existing international English major curriculum system and establishing English curriculum system with Chinese element will be the goal in reconceptualizing the English major education pattern.
