课后反思
这节课是阅读课类型。首先通过视频播放关于大象文化，整体感知，产生对大象的美好印象，然后通过创设情境引出本节课。通过在教学中设计不同的阅读任务：skimming and scanning, detail reading,不断激发学生的学习兴趣，让不同层次的学生不停参与，乐于参与。通过大量的阅读输入，层层递进，透过文本，挖掘文本中人文因素，培养学生的动物保护意识和情感价值观。本课最成功之处有：1）导入自然流畅：在学生观看了有关大象的视频后，大部分同学都能从自己的角度说出自己的所看、所感，图片生动、有趣，音乐欢快、轻柔，让学生不觉沉浸其中。2）微视频独具匠心：在阅读环节，通过任务设置，学生逐级阅读，在一步一步的掌握文章大意后，了解作者的意图。利用视频，帮助学生对于文本的文化背景有了明确的认识，把地球上其他濒临灭绝的动物现状以微视频的方式呈现出来，触目惊心的画面、清晰的解说词，更能唤醒学生们的动物保护意识以及自身的危机感，让学生有话想说、有话可说，让学生能抓住这个机会在课堂上充分表现自己的英语口语交际能力和拓展知识面（关于熊猫等动物的知识）。3）做熊猫的代言人，画龙点睛：由于整节课教师一直注重学生学习过程中的步步落实，尽量保证每一个学生都能有足够的时间进行练习、消化和吸收，所以留了足够多的时间给学生讨论、交流，以至学生能够根据讨论的结果比较自然地汇报、展示，学生的动物保护意识和人文素养得到了进一步的提高。4）主题升华水到渠成：教师引导学生感知文本所传递的情感，并通过图片和解说，让整节课的主题上升到“和谐自然，关爱地球，关爱他人”的高度，从而使得这节阅读课顺利达成情感目标。本节课的活动都是依据“任务型教学”理念设计的。这种教学理念就是要求我们新课程实施者在课堂设计和教学中，结合课标要求，通过设计一些贴近学生生活的活动，让学生用英语去做事，让他们在做事中感受语言，习得语言，提高能力，发展情致，开拓他们的想象力和创造力。本课要改进的方面是：1）在阅读第三段时，可以让学生讨论有关pandas的相关问题。2) 本节课讨论熊猫代言人的环节，充分体现了以学生为主体，面向全体学生的理念，在课堂实况中可以看出来确实有的学生能有出色的发挥，但有的学生只能完成基本要求。从这点看来，在今后的日常教学中也需要充分考虑学生的差异，分层次设定学习任务，或给学生提供一定的选择余地，就能更好地提高课堂效率，使每个学生都能得到更 充分的提高。
信息技术融合到课堂教学，解放教师，利用信息技术的辅助作用，解决了以往老师被多媒体束缚，只能站在讲台上，操作电脑，由被动的操作到主动的操作，更有利于教师走到学生中间，及时反馈学生信息，拉近与学生之间的距离，再有一点是，利用手机操控电子白板，及时的将学生的作业情况投到大屏幕上，与学生分享，这样老师能把全班共性的问题及时反馈出来，老师及时纠正点评，真正做到有的放矢。
