The Interactive English Teaching Method Based on Constructivism in Junior Middle School Abstract With the promotion of teaching reforms, many scientific and efficient teaching methods are strongly advocated in classroom teaching. Among these, interactive teaching method is an effective and popular method. In recent years, constructivist theory which emphasizes students’ initiative learning has been widely applied into education in all parts of the world. However, the traditional “teacher-centered” method has dominated English teaching for a long time, which makes students bored and accept knowledge passively. For the sake of inadequate interaction, students’ communicative competence and second language acquisition are not well developed. Neither is their initiative learning. Constructivism holds that students are an essential part in classroom teaching. They construct knowledge and meaning from an interaction between their own experiences and ideas. Therefore, it is quite essential that teachers should provide more interactions with students to communicate. This thesis combines these two theories, trying to show their importance and to find an effective way to learn English. Key words: Constructivism; Interactive teaching method; Classroom teaching 摘要 随着教学改革的推进，很多科学而有效的教学方法展现在课堂中。其中，互动教学法就是一种有效而受欢迎的教学方法。近些年来，注重学生主动学习的建构主义理论也被广泛运用到全世界的教学中。 然而，传统的以教师为中心的教学方法一直在英语教学中处于领导地位。这种教学模式使学生感到厌烦并且被动地接受知识。由于缺少足够的互动，学生的交际能力和第二语言习得能力没有得到很好的发展。学生的主动学习能力同样没有提高。建构主义认为学生是课堂教学的主体，他们对自己的经验和思想进行互动从而达到知识和意义的建构。因此，教师给学生提供更多的互动机会进行交流是非常必要的。本文结合建构主义理论和互动式教学，体现两者对学习英语的重要意义并尝试探求学习英语的有效途径。 关键词：建构主义；互动教学法；课堂教学 contents Acknowledgements i Abstract ii 摘要 iii 1.
