Abstract

Moral education has always been an important mission in Chinese education. English textbooks, as one of the vital elements in English teaching, are the main vehicle for transmitting English disciplinary knowledge, and the essential medium for teachers’ teaching and students’ learning. In fact, the values are often not directly presented in textbooks but are “hidden” in vehicles such as figures and storylines constructed by complex multimodal symbols (Feng, 2015). Therefore, it is essential to explore the images of figures and their values in Chinese English textbooks. This study takes one version of Chinese senior high school English textbooks published by BNUP in 2019 as the research objects. Based on the data collection and thorough analysis, the results show that Chinese senior high school English textbooks published by BNUP emphasize the moral education of students, and the selection of role models is relatively reasonable. Nevertheless, several shortcomings still exist, such as the unbalanced selection of role models in terms of gender and age.

中国高中英语教材角色塑造案例研究——以北京师范大学2019年版高中英语教材为例

德育一直是中国教育的一项重要使命。英语教材作为英语教学的重要组成部分之一，是传递英语学科知识的主要载体，是教师教学和学生学习的重要媒介。事实上，这些价值观往往不是直接呈现在教科书中，而是“隐藏”在由复杂的多模态符号构建的人物和故事情节等载体中(Feng, 2015)。因此，探讨汉语英语教材中的人物形象及其价值是十分必要的。本研究以北京师范大学2019年出版的一版中国高中英语教材为研究对象。通过数据收集和深入分析，结果表明北京师范大学出版的中国高中英语教科书强调学生的道德教育，榜样人物的选择相对合理。然而，仍然存在一些缺点，例如在性别和年龄方面选择榜样的不平衡。
