摘要

参考目前关于科技教学大纲和教科书设计的大量文献,人们严重怀疑目前的科技教科书是否可能能够满足对它们提出的要求和它们所引起的期望。报告对十个代表性教材的教学内容进行了调查,调查的参数包括:每本教材中涉及的教学要点在多大程度上涵盖了正式科学和技术话语的主要交际特征,所给出的解释和例子的数量和相关性,所提供练习的数量、覆盖范围和充分性,以及为教师和学生提供的辅助工具的种类和程度(视觉、注释、词汇表,等等)。结果表明,所研究的教科书存在着严重而普遍的缺陷,并对科技英语/ESP的现状和未来状况提出了启示。讨论了导致这种情况的可能原因,并提出了初步解决办法。

The EST textbook situation: An enquiry

Reference to the now extensive literature on EST syllabus and textbook design gives rise to serious doubts as to whether the present EST textbooks are likely to be capable of fulfilling the claims made for them and the expectations they arouse. An enquiry is reported into the teaching contents of ten representative texts, based on parameters which include the extent to which the teaching points dealt with in each textbook cover the main communicative features of formal scientific and technological discourse, the amount and relevance of the explanations and examples given, the number, coverage and adequacy of the exercises provided, and the kinds and extent of the supplementary aids for teachers and students supplied (visuals, notes, glossaries, etc.). The results reveal that there are serious and widespread deficiencies in all the textbooks studied, and the implications for the present and future state of EST/ESP are drawn. Possible reasons which have led to this situation are discussed and tentative solutions indicated.
