第一部分是绪论,对本文的研究背景、研究内容、研究方法、本文涉及的一些重要概念的界定以及本文所涉及的研究现状进行阐述,为更好地进行主体部分的论述打下基础。
第二部分是高职院校英语教学存在的普遍问题,这部分主要对浙江省丽水市两所高职院校教师、学生的问卷和访谈调查数据进行分析,从教学目标、教材、教学方法、学生基础以及师资力量几个方面对我国高职英语教学中存在的主要问题进行调查研究。
第三部分是运用专门用途英语理论指导高职英语教学的可行性分析,通过论述专门用途英语的教学原则符合高职英语教学要求、专门用途英语的教学理念与高职英语培养目标一致、高职学生具备接受专门用途英语教育的基础、高职教师具备专门用途英语教师的潜质,对ESP应用于我国高职英语教学进行分析,得出可行性结论。
第四部分是基于专门用途英语理论的高职英语教学改革实践,从以“需求分析”为基础确定高职英语教学目标、针对学生专业选择和编写高职英语教材、以学生为中心进行有效的课堂教学、校内校外实训结合提高学生英语运用能力、建立科学合理的评价与考核体系、联合学校与企业加强师资力量的建设六个方面进行具体的分析与论证。使英语教学同专业需求相结合,帮助学生获取将来工作所需的英语能力。
第五部分是专门用途英语理论对高职英语教学的启示。主要包括转变高职英语教学观念、形成独立的高职英语教学评估标准、高职师资建设要引起政府和高校的重视。
