《英语课程标准》在实施建议中指出:教师要设计探究式的学习活动,促进学生实践能力和创新思维的发展;引导学生运用观察、发现、归纳和实践等方法,学习语言知识,感悟语言功能。探究式教学不仅被作为重要的理念强调,在教学建议提出,而且被列入了课程目标和内容标准之中,作为必须实施的内容要求。探究式教学指教学过程是在教师的启发诱导下, The English Curriculum Standards pointed out in the implementation recommendations that teachers should design inquiry-based learning activities to promote the development of students’ practical ability and innovative thinking; guide students to use observation, discovery, induction, and practice methods to learn language knowledge and understand language functions . Inquiry teaching is not only emphasized as an important concept, but also proposed in teaching suggestions, and it is included in the curriculum objectives and content standards as content requirements that must be implemented. Inquiry teaching means that the teaching process is inspired by the teacher’s inspiration.
