贾国栋
简历:中国人民大学外国语学院副院长,教授,博士。研究方向为计算机辅助语言教学,语言测试,英语写作,语料库语言学,文学文体学等。主要开设英语听力、英语演讲、英美小说阅读等课程。
发言主题:
1.《中国人民大学英语写作能力标准》开发及写作教学实践
2.眼动追踪与键盘记录在英语写作研究中应用
摘要:
1.英语写作教学一直是各高校重点内容之一,但如何规范、高效地教授写作能力也一直是教师和学者们探讨的核心内容。中国人民大学花三年时间开发的校本特色的写作能力标准就是迈向这个方向的重要一步。本讲重点介绍该标准的开发理念、过程、结果,以及教学实践,以便与各高校共享开发和教学经验。
2.基于眼动追踪和键盘实录的写作认知过程研究是目前国际上写作研究的热点之一,但从国内近几年的文献来看,该方面的研究成果还非常有限,值得进一步探索。本研究通过TOBII TX 300眼动仪和Inputlog的使用,尝试观察语言测试语境下本科学生英语写作和修改过程中的思维模式,以发现学生写作中存在的问题,从而对症下药,改进教学。

Kenneth Ferguson
Bio: Kenneth has been an educator for over 10 years both in America, where he taught middle and high school students, and in China, where he instructs university students. He has a Master’s degree in ancient culture and is CELTA certified. He currently works at Renmin University of China in the School of Foreign Languages teaching Advanced English Writing.
Topic: From Fundamental to Phenomenal
Abstract: Students have studied English more than half their lives before they reach university. However, English is still a foreign language and causes many students to stumble academically. How can a teacher help their students function at a higher cognitive level and produce better writing? This session will introduce you to Krashen’s Theory of Second Language Acquisition and Blooms Taxonomy. Then after examining some of the common errors Chinese students make, we will use a combination of Krashen and Bloom to evaluate and elevate your students’ essays.
John Berra
Bio: John Berra, Film Studies Ph.D., University of Sheffield, United Kingdom. His current research areas are contemporary Chinese cinema and media trends in East Asia. He is the co-editor of the East Asian Journal of Popular Culture. He has published peer-reviewed articles in such journals as Asian Cinema, Film, Fashion and Consumption, and Science Fiction Film and Television.
Topic: Fundamental Strategies for Academic Writing
Abstract: Different academic disciplines have different writing conventions. For instance, a piece of scientific writing can be very different from philosophy. However, there are fundamental strategies that should not only be employed across all disciplines but need to be instilled at undergraduate level if future research excellence is to result. This presentation will outline undergraduate teaching methods for a number of related or alternative strategies pertaining to the processes of idea generation and the structuring of essays–mind-mapping, pre-writing, and outlining. Adopting a set of proven academic writing strategies is to be conscious of the fundamental practices that provide any piece of work with its foundations, thereby facilitating a sound base from which learning can be achieved and further research can be developed. This presentation will illustrate how building this set of strategies enables students to develop control and confidence with regards to their academic writing from a critical early stage.
