英语作业批改,是英语教学过程中不可或缺的环节,是检查教学效果和获得重要信息反馈的一个重要手段。英语作业批改本身也是一门教学艺术,传统单调等级制,如A,B,C,已经不能适应现代教育发展的需要。经过十几年的教学经验,我发现,根据学生的不同情况,有针对性地添加些激励性语言及评语,对激发学生的学习兴趣,提高学生的学习效果,改善师生关系,能起到良好的辅助作用。
我在作业批改中,依据初中生现有的语言能力,经常用以下几种英文批语。
一、表扬型
任何学生都有自尊心和荣誉感,希望自己的能力和学成绩得到老师的认可。所以,作为英语教师要该赠与时就赠与,不要吝啬笔墨。除常见的"Beautifu1! Wonderful! Great! Nice! "等简单批语外,还可以用各种生动活泼的句子,如:You 've done so nicely !
Well done!What a wonderful work you've done!
I am pround of you !
Better than the last! You won the first place !
Your dandwriting is so beautiful!等等。 简短的批语,充分肯定了学生的能力和学习态度,使他们倍受鼓舞,从而产生了新的学习动力,继续攀登高峰的愉快心情。
二、鼓励型
对于部分成绩不稳定或者对学习缺乏信心的学生,写上鼓励性语言,从而使他们树立信心的信心和勇气。常用的批语有:I think you can do better!
If you work harder,you'll make better progress!
Where there is a will , there is a way !
I wish your work would be as excellent as your name.
If you want to be successful ,at first you must believe yourself , then work hard !(Madam Curie)
假如,在考前可以在作业本上写上:I expect your good news in the coming exam !或 Can you give me an exciting news in the exam ?
How I wish you could stand in the forefront of our class.
I think you can , will you ?等寄语,学生就有可能会发挥出超常水平。
三、温暖型
有的学生因生病缺课,家庭困难或其他特殊原因出现了情绪波动,教师应及时发现并能在作业本中给以关心问候。比如:I'm very sorry to hear that you are ill.
Are you feeling better now ?
Have a good rest ! Don't worry about your lessons ,I can help you, OK ?或者 Difficulty is a weak enemy !But you're a brave man !Please come to me when you need any help .老师给予学生的一点儿入微关怀,往往会使学生倍感温暖。他们会把教师视为值得信赖的朋友或尊敬的长辈。他们也许会因为这种友谊而更加喜欢英语这门课,从而更加积极主动地学习。
四、指导型
学生作业质量在班级中,学生英语水平是参差不齐的,教师要依据学生英语水平的不同层次批改作业。对于基础较好,能力较强的优等生要提出较高层次的要求,如:Excellent! But try to make your handwriting better !对于作业马虎,小错不断,学习忽冷忽热者,如:What do think of your work?to make so many mistakes !
How I wish you would be more careful !
Keep on !You've made good progress recently !
You've done a good work except for a few spelling mistakes !对于学习困难者,在不同学习阶段应及时发现他们的闪光点,如:You r handwriting is very good ,but try not to make so many mistakes !
Can you do well in grammar, just as well as your pronunciation ?
You've studied hard ,but avoid making mistakes in grammar!
五、警钟型
假如个别优等生产生骄傲自满情绪或其他原因作业不如人意,在作业批改后可写这样几句:Tom, Lily , Rose and Kate have made good progress recently,You'll fall behind them if you don't work harder .
Li hua ,can you keep on being one of the best students in our class ?
对于中等生,给他们制定赶超目标,具有可比性,可行性,让学生在通过一段努力后有所收获,享受到成功感,可这样写: Can you catch up with Li Ming this term ?He only does a little better in word learning than you !对于学困生,与别人进行横向比较的可能性也存在,但并不具备优势,别让他们与中等生,优等生进行比较,否则他们会容易产生畏惧心理,丧失信心。让他们与自己的前后对比,评语不妨这样写:
If you made fewer mistakes in grammar ,you could have done much better .
总之,评语的方式多种多样,如果教师在作业批改中能灵活运用,“对症下药”能够发挥学生学习的主动性,激发学生斗志,帮助学困生树立自信,变后进为先进。英语教师的确需要对作业批语的重视,它可以促进教学质量的提高。
