内容記述 | The literature on teaching English as a foreign or second language, is predicated on students' desire to study. Such assumptions are, however, inadequate for seeking "solutions" to education problems endemic at Japanese universities. Thus while teachers are obliged to keep abreast of theoretical developments in pedagogy, they are forced by the contingencies of classroom reality to resort to empirical methods for devising curricula to meet the specific needs of Japanese students. Drawing on theoretical lines and empirical examples from the fields of film and literature, as well as from traditional EFL/ESL literature, and incorporating insights from psychology and cultural studies, it will be argued that an alternative direction for language teaching has become necessary, one that requires a firm philosophical foundation with the radical aim of fostering individuality and maturity in students by means of a motivating subject-centered pedagogy that pays more attention to their intellectual and emotional needs and to the development of an ethical and aesthetic sensibility than does the grammar-translation approach which up to the present, despite the lip service paid to "communicative" English, has been the predominant model at Japanese universities. The thesis leads to the conclusion that English study as communication may be best served by a subject-centered approach that promotes an intellectually higher level of student self-expression through writing (and discussion) rather than overemphasizing the development of student competence in the spoken language which the literature appears to indicate has produced intellectually meagre results.\ \ Note: this paper is the preliminary section of an MA thesis in Communication awarded in July 1998 by Greenwich University, Hilo, Hawaii, USA. |
