Дифференцированный контроль аудирования в обучении английскому языку

Дифференцированное обучение предполагает разный уровень усвоения учебного материала, при котором глубина и сложность одного и того же учебного материала различна: от владения базовым уровнем знаний в соответствии с требованиями образовательного Стандарта до углубленного, расширенного усвоения данного учебного материала.

С целью реализации дифференцированного подхода в обучении английскому языку используются технология дифференцированного обучения (т.е. разноуровневого обучения) с последующим разноуровневым контролем усвоения учебного материала.

Дифференцированный подход в обучении английскому языку – это организация учебного процесса, при котором индивидуальные особенности каждого школьника учитываются во время организации учебной деятельности на уроке в конкретном классе, т.е. учащиеся разного уровня обученности специально объединяются в учебные группы “A”, “B”, “C” по следующим индивидуальным признакам:

в группу “А” отбираются высокомотивированные учащиеся, одаренные дети, легко справляющиеся с заданиями, отвечающими Стандарту образования (высокий уровень обученности);

в группу “В” отбираются мотивированные учащиеся, хорошо успевающие по предмету, но у которых все-таки иногда возникают трудности в выполнении того или иного задания контрольной работы, отвечающих Стандарту образования (повышенный уровень обученности);

в группу “С” отбираются “слабомотивированные” учащиеся, которые нередко либо плохо успевают по предмету, либо вообще не успевают.

Критериями отбора учащихся на тот или иной уровень (группы “A”, “B”, “C”) будут служить результаты тестирования, основанного на материале, заданиях и требованиях базового уровня владения английским языком на каждой ступени обучения.

Учет желания учащихся обязателен, если он хочет из группы “С” (по распределению учителя, основанного на результатах теста) перейти в группу “В”, но не наоборот.

Необходимо предоставлять нашим ученикам возможность взять на себя ответственность за самостоятельный выбор уровня усвоения и сложности учебного материала в зависимости от индивидуальных потребностей учащихся, т.к. это позитивно сказывается на мотивации к изучению английского языка, но ни в коем случае нельзя допускать преднамеренного занижения своих способностей.

Не следует забывать, что стандарт образования обязывает всех учителей английского языка дать своим подопечным среднее образование, т.е. усвоение базового уровня, при этом количество часов, отводимое на изучение той или иной темы, остается без изменений для всех учащихся данного класса.

Таким образом, используя дифференцированный подход к контролю усвоения учебного материала по английскому языку, мы гибко подошли к личностно-ориентированному обучению, при котором максимально раскрываются индивидуальные способности каждого ученика, имеющего возможность самостоятельно выбрать его доступный уровень и получить оценку по выбранному именно им уровню, а также реально помогающее ему добиваться новых, более высоких результатов.

Следовательно, дифференцированный подход в обучении английскому языку – это необходимость и актуальность нашего времени, времени информационно-компьютерных технологий и инновационных методов обучения в образовательной среде.

А теперь я хочу привести вариант дифференцированного контроля аудирования для седьмого класса общеобразовательных школ по английскому языку (3 часа в неделю) и занимающихся по учебнику М.З. Бибалетовой Enjoy English.

Цель: проверить уровень сформированности навыков аудирования у всех групп учащихся (level A, level B, level C).

“Mr. Holland’s Dream”

I shall read you the text three times by intervals. And after that the pupils of the first group (level A) have to put the sentences in a logical order according to the text. The pupils of the second group (level B) have to answer the questions according to the text. And the pupils of the third group (level C) have to circle the correct answer in their papers.

When Mr. Holland was a young man, he played a lot of football, and he had always been thin and very strong. But then he worked in an office for many years, and he drove to work in a car, so when he was forty, he was fat and very soft, and he didn’t wish to get fatter and softer every year.

One day one of his friends said to him: “Would you like to be thinner, Fred?”

“Of course, I would”, Mr. Holland answered.

“Well”, his friend said, “stop going to your office by car, and get a bicycle”.

Mr. Holland had not ridden a bicycle for many years. “It’s very hard to learn to ride a bicycle again at your age,” his wife said.

But it was not too hard for Mr. Holland to do. He usually sat in his living room and read the newspaper in the evening, but he bought a bicycle for his birthday and practiced riding it every evening instead. He hoped that it would help him to get thinner, and he got a lot of pleasure from it.

He found little roads which were not really very narrow, but were too narrow for cars, and there he got away from the nasty noises of the city, which were becoming too much for him. They were not really very loud, but they were too loud for Mr. Holland.

Then he began to go to his office by bicycle. Sometimes all the cars stopped at a red light, and he went past them to the front, because his bicycle was narrow. Then he was very happy.

Yesterday he stopped at a red light, and a man came up behind him on another bicycle. He stopped too and said to Mr. Holland, “Have the police taken your driving licence away too?”
