摘要随着经济和全球化的发展,培养和提高学生的英语语言交际能力就显得非常迫切。基于英语在中国是外语,缺乏真实的语言环境,中国学生英语语言的获得更多靠的是“学习”而不是“习得”,所以语法仍然是中国学生学习英语所必须的工具。然而传统的教学法已不能适应现在的社会需求。70年代末,交际教学法被介绍到中国,中国一些教育工作者开始探索如何在语法教学中引入交际教学法,为中国英语语法教学提供了一定的理论和实践启示。但是交际法在我国实施多年以来,中学教师是否真正将交际教学法应用到了语法教学的实践中?应用情况到底如何?笔者深入教学一线,以天津新华中学、第一中学、实验中学、南开大学附属中学、天津大学附属中学、育红中学和第二十五中学的高中师生为调查对象,通过问卷、课堂观察、访谈的方式对高中英语语法教学中交际教学法的应用情况进行研究,着重分析在交际语法教学中出现的问题,并从评价体系、中国教学环境、教师、学生等方面进行反思,并提出了可行性建议,希望能够开拓出一条适合中国学生的交际语法教学的道路,丰富和充实外语教学理论,提高高中英语语法教学水平和教学效果,提高学生的交际能力。关键词:语法教学交际教学法交际语法教学交际能力
