以经典为载体，视听课中学科核心素养的培育
——选择性必修第四册 U4 Listening, Viewing and Speaking 课例分析
本单元主题为 Approaching Classics，旨在让学生通过本单元的学习唤醒对于 跨文化交流中经典文学的意识，学会批判性地接受他人观点，提升思维品质，从 而培养正确的经典作品的阅读和理解方法。基于这样的单元设计意图，开篇 Reading A 介绍了经典文学名著《老人与海》的一个选段；之后在视听说板块安 排了两个内容，一是哲学家 Russell 对 1000 年后的人类的寄语。二是电影 Dead Poets Society 中教师 John Keating 和学生们谈论什么是诗歌的画面。在这两个板 块 的铺垫 ，在本单元 的 Reading B 环节呈现 了英 国浪漫主义诗人 William Wordsworth 的诗 Written In March，让学生在欣赏诗歌文学的魅力中进一步强化 文化品格和思维品质的培育。由此本版块的 Listening and Viewing 在单元中起到 了链接、贯通的重要作用。本节课的设计很好展现了如何将核心素养融入日常教 和学中。英语学科核心素养的几个维度：语言能力、文化品格、思维品质、学习 能力都体现其中。尤其是在思维品质的培育上，目标清晰，方法得当，能产生非 常好的教学效果。
本视听版块的共通特点是内容都比较深奥、抽象，如果没有深层次的思维是 无法理解的。Listening 环节是著名哲学家 Bertrand Russell 在 1959 年所做的访谈， 寄语未来人类生命的价值与意义在于拥有智慧和道德。智慧源于尊重事实，追求 真理；所谓道德是要学会爱，懂得宽容与忍让。Viewing 环节是 Mr. Keating 通过 引导学生思考医学、法律等“实用 ”知识来体会和领悟诗歌对人类的作用同等重 要(Poetry is “what we stay alive for”, and it’s as important as “what is necessary to sustain” .)。本节课的设计者从介绍人物背景知识入手，以层层递进的问题方式引 领学生了解目标内容，激活背景知识，在此过程中润物无声地渗透了文化品格的 培育。如在 Listening 环节预估到学生对于 Bertrand Russell 不甚了解，设计者并 没有直接宣读一段 Russell 的生平介绍，而是以贴合学生认知水平的提问来引起 学生的注意力和兴趣,并在问题中让学生了解罗素的主要成就，这为之后的听懂 奠定一个基础。听必须要在懂的基础上才有意义，而要真正懂得，必须要有深度 思维的配置。了解了 Russell 是一个伟大的哲学家，再去听他对未来人类提出的 关于智慧和道德的人生意义，学生的思考更会有深度。虽然设计者所采用的教学 步骤简单而清晰：Make a prediction --- Answer questions--- Listen for details。但是 对于思维品质的挖掘非常深刻。在听取细节环节中抓住关键信息：“When you are studying any matter, ask yourself only what are the facts and what is the truth behind them” “I should say love is wise; hatred is foolish” .让学生听后讨论：What are the factors important for intellectual development 以此来激发学生的创新性思维和批 判性思维。
同样在 Viewing 部分，通过图片，问题等快速引导学生了解视频故事背景及 主要情节，不仅渗透了文化意识的唤醒，并且还为后面的高阶思维 What is poetry
做出有益的铺垫。在引领学生进入高阶思维之前，还巧妙地进行了学习能力培养， 设计了一个问题：What makes Mr. Keating’s class different from most classroom experience 教 导 学 生 应 满 怀 激 情 的 投 入 到 学 习 当 中 Everybody should be involved in class activities with passion and enthusiasm. 本节课设计最为出彩部分 是引导学生看细节，让学生注意在 Mr. Keating 讲述诗歌的意义过程当中，他的 学生的面部表情变化，判断学生的心理感受，以此来感知 Mr. Keating 所说的诗 歌的魅力及诗歌对人生的意义。通过细节观察，再加受主人公情绪感染，学生自 然的从心里感受到什么是诗歌的魅力：诗歌是人生的光芒，它看似无用，实则是 生命的依托。最后部分老师把视频素材中的内容做了强调和深化，引导学生再一 次思考 Why poetry matters。正是有了前面部分的层层铺垫，老师在教学的过程 中能及时有效的抓住学生思维中存在的问题点，能因势利导地引发学生的思维碰 撞，促进高阶思维的产生。
纵观这节基于核心素养的视听课，教师的引导者的角色清晰，问题设置开放 性强，学生的主体性更加显现。整体教学设计体现了“以学习者为中心、以学习 经历为基础、以学科核心素养培育为目标”。教学过程中通过创设情境的导读， 层层递进法提问的导思，循循善诱启发表达的导行，落实了对学生语言能力、文 化品格、思维品质和学习能力的培养。上外版 高一年级 必修三 第三单元 第 4 课时 学案（学生版）

1. What do you know about Bertrand Russell
A British philosopher, logician, mathematician, historian, writer, social critic, political activist, and Nobel laureate(得主).
Have you read or heard of any of his works
For Chinese language learners, Russell is well-known for his works like “The Three Passions I Have Lived for”, “On Science”, “On Education”, etc.
2. What are Russell’s two main suggestions for the future generation
For intellectual development, when you are studying any matter, ask yourself only what is the fact and what is the truth behind them. It is advised that we should not be led either by what you wish to believe, or by what you think would have good social effects if it were believed.
For the moral aspect, love is wise; hatred is foolish. In this world, which is getting more closely and closely interconnected, we have to learn to tolerate each other. … we must learn a kind of charity and a kind of tolerance which is absolutely vital to the continuation of human life on this planet.
3. What else might be fundamental for intellectual development
4. What do you know about the film Dead Poets Society
Set at the conservative and aristocratic(贵族的) Welton Academy in the northeast United States in 1959, it tells the story of an English teacher John Keating who inspires his students to look at poetry with a different perspective of authentic knowledge and feelings.
5. What makes Keating’s class different from other ones
In normal classes, the teachers stand on the platform giving lectures while the students are listening with attention or taking notes.
However, in Mr. Keating’s class, everybody is involved in the passion and enthusiasm lightened by him. They are being led to a new land, are being drawn to the beauty of poems and are proud of the mission they have as a member of human beings.
6. How do students ’ expressions change as Keating talks to them
The students look puzzled, even not interested first. As Mr. Keating talk about how poems could express beauty, romance and love that we are alive for, they started to show understanding and agreement. Their faces are illuminated(照亮); they start smiling or looking serious as if they were thinking about their own verse.
7. Why poetry matters
