摘要

本文采用案例研究设计,探讨了乌干达中学英语教师在实施 2020 年英语能力本位课程创新时所面临的现实生活中的适应性挑战。研究结果表明,教学材料匮乏、时间限制和班级规模过大、规划和利益相关者的支持有限、当地文化和学习风格之间的不协调等,都是英语语言教师在全球南部低收入国家的英语课堂上适应和实施基于能力的课程创新时所面临的复杂问题的重要原因。乌干达教师的经历引起了全球南部大多数 ESL 教育环境的共鸣。这些经验说明,在撒哈拉以南非洲和更广泛的全球南部地区,英语教学的前提是促进学生掌握英语语言以进行有意义的互动,教师在实施以能力为基础的课程时面临和可能面临的挑战具有普遍性。

Competence-based language curricula: implementation challenges in Africa
Drawing on a case study design, this article examines the real-life adaptive challenges secondary school teachers of English in Uganda face while implementing the 2020 English language competence-based curriculum innovation. Findings indicate that scarcity of instructional materials, time constraints and large class sizes, limited planning and stakeholders’ support, dissonance between local culture and learning styles significantly underlie complications ESL teachers face adapting and implementing competence-based curricula innovations in English language classrooms in low-income contexts in the global south. The experiences of teachers in Uganda resonate across most global south ESL educational contexts. They illustrate the universality of challenges teachers face and are likely to face when implementing competence-based curricula in sub-Saharan Africa and the wider global south where the teaching and learning of English is premised on facilitating acquisition of English language for meaningful interaction.
