［案例反思］

　　 时代在变，世界在变，事物都在发展，教育理念的更新也是势在必行。由David Nunan倡导的任务型语言教学主张learning by doing,掀起了英语教学改革的浪潮。这给工作在第一战线的英语教师带来了希望，也使得英语课堂教学更具挑战性。如今，互联网无处不在，网上分布着无比丰富的英语教学资源，多媒体和网络技术的应用已经成为英语教学不可缺少的教学辅助手段，确实为英语课堂教学带来了生机与活力。英语教师也因此用一种新的眼光来看待英语教学。“它(互联网)拥有如此令人惊讶的无限资源，它可以使我们每一位教师变得更富有创造性，更紧跟时代，更令人满意。”

2、　 Get the Ss to do some consolidation exercises. T goes around and gives some help to Ss.

［1、让学生来做课堂小结，抓住了学生“敢于开口说英语”的心理，突出主动学习的重要性；教师作综合陈述，犹如给学生一颗定心丸，给学生增添了信心。2、强化练习，重点训练听写能力，进一步巩固本课所学内容。］
