精彩书摘
It is well to note that our work in large multilevel classes will never beeasy. And there will always be days when we feel frustrated. This is parfor the course. Nevertheless, there will always be many more good thanbad days. We will always know that our work is important, thatthrough our work we have contributed to the welfare of people andof society, and if today was bad, chances are that tomorrow will bebetter. If the class we have right now is impossible, next semestersgroup may be ever so much better. If the material we are working withjust doesnt click, we can always choose something more appropriatewhen we teach the same topic next time.
If you have read Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell, youknow that its heroine, Scarlett OHara, had a special mantra when thingsgot too tense: I will think about it tomorrow, she said. This philosophymay prove helpful in dealing with the frustrations that accompanyteaching large multilevel classes. No matter how good we get to be, nomatter how much personal fulfillment we may find in our work, there isno escaping the fact that the job will always present us with challenges.In fictional or filmed teacher stories, the hero teacher usually strugglesmightily during his/her first year of teaching and then through somemiraculous epiphany understands why things have not worked out well.Or, our hero teacher changes his/her tactics/attitude/technique/strategyand presto he/she becomes the most wonderful and beloved teacher inthe world. No wonder real teachers get fed up with the stories! In reallife, the struggle, in all its various forms, continues throughout onescareer. Of course, we all develop and learn many things, but the job iseternally challenging and that perhaps is one reason why so many of uslove it!
前言/序言
外研社从剑桥大学出版社出版的“Cambidge Handbooks for Language Teachers”中选出10本,结成“Learning in Doing?剑桥英语课堂教学系列”,在中国大陆出版发行。
应外研社要我为这套丛书写一个总序的要求,我通读了全部10本书,同时看了原系列其他书的书名。我发现,在所有这些书都涉及外语教学中的重要问题的同时,编者选出目前这10本来先期出版发行,是有道理的。
首先,从这10本书的书名就可看出,它们都是关于当前外语教学中的一些最关紧要的问题。读这套书的教师朋友们会发现,它们是如此切合我们国家当前外语教学(尤其是基础阶段外语教学)所面临的突出问题,用一句俗语说,它们是如此符合我国的“国情”:大班教学、以学生为中心突出个性化教学、课堂设计、口语教学、词汇教学、如何利用多媒体教学手段等等,方方面面,不一而足。
好的,这是一份关于其他主题的图书简介,旨在提供详尽内容,避免提及您提供的书籍信息,并以自然、专业的语气撰写。 --- 《数字时代的叙事重塑:从信息茧房到社群构建的媒介实践》 本书导言: 在信息洪流与算法驱动的时代,我们获取、理解和分享世界的方式正在经历一场深刻的变革。传统的线性叙事模式受到挑战,取而代之的是碎片化、交互式乃至“活态化”的表达形式。本书深入探讨了数字媒介如何重塑我们的叙事结构、认知模式以及社会关系。我们不再仅仅是内容的消费者,更是信息生态系统的共同参与者和生产者。理解这一转变,对于任何希望在当代社会中有效沟通、建立意义联系的个体或组织而言,都至关重要。 第一部分:数字叙事的基础逻辑与技术演变 本部分聚焦于理解数字叙事赖以生存的技术基础与思维范式。 第一章:从印刷术到超文本的媒介史观 追溯叙事形式的历史演变,重点分析互联网技术如何催生了“超文本”这一核心结构。超文本的非线性、多路径特性打破了传统阅读的确定性,要求读者主动参与路径选择,这直接影响了信息的接收效率和深度理解。本章将讨论超文本理论如何与用户体验设计(UX/UI)相结合,塑造现代数字阅读界面。 第二章:算法与过滤器的双重效应 算法在信息分发中的核心作用被置于聚光灯下。我们探讨推荐系统如何通过预测用户偏好来构建“个性化信息流”。然而,这种个性化是以牺牲信息的广度和多样性为代价的,形成了“信息茧房”(Filter Bubble)现象。本章详细分析了算法偏见(Algorithmic Bias)的产生机制及其对公众舆论形成的潜在负面影响,并引入“算法透明度”作为应对策略的讨论起点。 第三章:跨媒介叙事(Transmedia Storytelling)的生态构建 现代叙事往往不再局限于单一平台。跨媒介叙事要求故事元素在不同媒介(如电影、游戏、社交媒体、播客)中协同工作,共同扩展世界观。本章通过分析成功的案例,解构跨媒介叙事如何实现叙事的一致性与平台适应性的平衡,并探讨其对品牌营销和文化产品消费的深远影响。 第二部分:叙事的互动性与参与式文化 数字环境的显著特征是互动性,这要求叙事者放弃对意义的绝对控制权,拥抱读者的参与和再创作。 第四章:用户生成内容(UGC)的赋权与挑战 社交媒体平台极大地降低了内容生产的门槛,使得“人人都是作者”成为现实。本章探讨UGC的爆发如何民主化了叙事权,但也带来了内容质量参差不齐、版权界定模糊以及“注意力经济”下内容极端化的困境。我们将重点关注用户如何利用模因(Memes)等快速传播形式进行即时社会评论。 第五章:沉浸式体验与虚拟现实中的情感共鸣 虚拟现实(VR)和增强现实(AR)技术正在将叙事推向三维、可感知的空间。本章分析沉浸式叙事如何通过第一人称视角和空间化叙事,增强观众的情感投入度(Presence)和道德代入感。讨论的核心是如何在提供高度沉浸感的同时,保持叙事意图的清晰传达。 第六章:协作式叙事与集体智慧 从维基百科到开放源代码项目,协作叙事展示了群体在构建复杂知识体系方面的潜力。本章考察了在线社区如何通过集体编辑、讨论和版本迭代来共同塑造一个持续演进的“活态文本”。探讨了如何设计有效的协作机制来避免“群体极化”或“集体失智”的风险。 第三部分:社群、身份与数字公共领域 叙事不仅仅是信息的传递,更是身份的构建和社群的粘合剂。 第七章:身份构建:数字人设与多重自我 在数字空间中,个体往往需要管理多个“数字人设”(Digital Personas)。本章探究了不同社交平台(如LinkedIn的专业形象与Reddit的匿名身份)如何引导用户构建差异化的自我表达。分析了这种多重身份的切换如何影响个体的心理状态与真实社交的连接。 第八章:社群的形成、边界与“回音室”效应 社群是通过共享的叙事和共同的价值体系凝聚起来的。本章深入研究了在线社群(Online Communities)的形成机制,包括其内部语言、文化规范和排他性。重点分析了“回音室”(Echo Chamber)现象——当社群叙事高度内循环时,如何加剧群体间的对立,损害跨社群的对话基础。 第九章:重建信任:去中心化叙事与事实核查的未来 面对“后真相”时代的挑战,重建公众对信息来源的信任变得尤为迫切。本章讨论了区块链技术在构建不可篡改的叙事记录方面的潜力,以及去中心化社交媒体(Decentralized Social Media)如何从根本上改变信息权力结构。同时,探讨了面向大众的批判性媒体素养教育在维护健康数字公共领域中的决定性作用。 结语:迈向有意识的媒介公民身份 数字时代的叙事工具无比强大,它们既是连接世界的桥梁,也可能是隔绝思想的高墙。本书的最终目标是赋能读者,使其不仅能驾驭这些工具,更能以一种更具批判性、更负责任的方式参与到全球叙事生态的构建中,从被动的接收者转变为积极的、有意识的媒介公民。 --- 本书特色: 跨学科视野: 融合了媒介理论、认知心理学、计算机科学和文化研究的前沿洞察。 案例驱动: 大量引用了近年来全球范围内的数字叙事前沿案例,进行深入的技术与文化剖析。 面向实践: 为内容创作者、市场营销人员、教育工作者及政策制定者提供了理解和应对当前媒介挑战的实用框架。 前瞻性思考: 不仅回顾现状,更对AI生成内容(AIGC)的未来趋势对叙事范式的潜在颠覆性影响进行了审慎的展望。
