工程管理专业英语教材评估-英语语言文学；英语语言文学专业论文.docx

摘要 摘要 I I 摘要 本文尝试对出版于不同时期的三本工程管理专业英语教材（1997，2003， 2006）进行了评估和比较。作者首先回顾了专门用途英语（ESP）教学在中国的 发展历史，揭示了当前 ESP 教学中存在的诸多问题，从而突出了本文研究的重要 意义。作者进而综述了本文研究涉及到的有关理论发展和研究动态：一方面，界 定了 ESP 的内涵，梳理了 ESP 理论的发展，并对国内有关 ESP 的研究进行了归纳； 另一方面，探讨了几种英语教材编写观，梳理了教材评估理论的发展，重点突出 了几种颇具影响的教材评估理论，并对国内近年来有关英语教材评估的研究进行 了总结。 在此基础上，作者参照乔·麦克多诺与克里斯托夫·肖提出的评估细则，对上 述三本工程管理专业英语教材进行了较为细致全面的评估。评估过程分为三个阶 段，即外部评估、内部评估和整体评估；在每个评估阶段，作者严格依照评估细 则给出的对照表，较为详细地对研究对象进行审视和分析。研究结果表明：从教 材组成、教材涵盖的语言内容、教材涉及的语言技能、教材的编排设计等方面来 看，三本教材均差强人意，不能单独作为专业英语课程教材，需补充其它资料配 合使用。基于教材评估的过程和结果，作者列出 ESP 教师在选择专业英语教材时 需要考虑的几方面因素，以此改进专业英语教学。 关键词：专门用途英语，工程管理专业英语，教材，评估 Abstract Abstract Abstract In this thesis, the author tries carrying out an evaluation of and making comparison and contrast between three versions of Subject-based English (SBE) textbooks for students majoring in Project Management, which were published in different times (1997, 2003, 2006) respectively.
