21、<p>　　當(dāng)今，因特網(wǎng)在社會(huì)的地位越來(lái)越重要。越來(lái)越多的人喜歡在網(wǎng)上做事，如網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物，網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲，在線教育等。這篇論文首先分析了傳統(tǒng)英語(yǔ)教育和在線英語(yǔ)教育兩種模式。如傳統(tǒng)英語(yǔ)教育缺乏英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)言環(huán)境，學(xué)習(xí)的方式也有限，學(xué)生總是在老師的安排下學(xué)習(xí)。但傳統(tǒng)英語(yǔ)卻更容易被中老年老師所接受，能使學(xué)生更好的掌握書本上的知識(shí)，老師和學(xué)生也能夠更好地進(jìn)行交流等。與之相對(duì)的在線英語(yǔ)教育功能強(qiáng)大，能夠給我們提供很多的東西，其中電子郵件是最方便的

22、交流方式，利用這一教育方式老師能夠創(chuàng)造一個(gè)生動(dòng)的課堂教學(xué)。但是，在線教育也有其弱點(diǎn)，如會(huì)使人與人之間產(chǎn)生情感距離，受一些特殊條件的限制，使一些學(xué)生越來(lái)越懶。本論文以傳統(tǒng)英語(yǔ)教育與在線英語(yǔ)教育的不同點(diǎn)為基礎(chǔ)，對(duì)所涉及到的各方面進(jìn)行了比較，如教師角色，教學(xué)資源利用，教學(xué)活動(dòng)組織等。通過(guò)傳統(tǒng)英語(yǔ)教育與在線英語(yǔ)教育的比較，我們可以知道在線英語(yǔ)教育很多的優(yōu)勢(shì)所在。希望更多的人了解這一新技術(shù)革命，并有更多的英語(yǔ)老師能將這一技術(shù)革新應(yīng)用于教學(xué)實(shí)踐。因

23、此，在教學(xué)中要靈活應(yīng)變，使傳統(tǒng)英語(yǔ)教學(xué)與在線英語(yǔ)教學(xué)相互結(jié)合是本文闡述的重點(diǎn)。</p><p><b>　　關(guān)鍵詞</b></p><p>　　傳統(tǒng)英語(yǔ)教育；在線英語(yǔ)教育；比較；結(jié)合</p><p>　　Introduction</p><p>　　In recent years, the developments of

24、 net technologies bring many advantages to the educational fields. As a result of these developments, a new branch which is Online Education by Computer Assisted Language Learning in applied linguistics is flourished. It

25、 is obvious to everyone that traditional model of classroom teaching can no longer meet students’ needs. The Online Education becomes an important approach to teaching English.</p><p>　　Generally speaking, i

26、t is possible to say that computer revolution has been done and it is impossible to keep it away from us. So the teachers must learn to live together with it, and benefit from using it. Through this new technology，classr

27、oom teaching will be more attractive and enjoyable; learning and teaching will be a real fun for both the students and the teachers.</p><p>　　Many teachers, researchers and educators analyze some problems ex

28、isting in Traditional English Education, such as the lack of natural language environment, the limitation of educational resources, the boring teaching and learning. So many teachers and educators introduce us a new teac

29、hing technology -- the Online English Education, and display some advantages of it. Most people are not familiar with it, so I hope more teachers will put it into the classroom teaching. With the comparisons between</

30、p><p>　　I. Analysis of Traditional English Education and Online English Education</p><p>　　The Traditional English Education in our country is based on the Classroom English Language Teaching. This

31、 English Educational pattern can be generalized as textbook-centered. In a most common English class, a teacher usually starts with explaining the new words and phrases of a text, and then the content in the text. After

32、analyzing the text, the teacher may give some assignments involving in the text for students and finally correct their homework. That’s how teacher organizes the class using </p><p>　　A. Some Problems in Tra

33、ditional English Education</p><p>　　1. Lack of Natural Language Environment </p><p>　　As for this traditional pattern, there exist some problems in teaching. For example, the students study Engl

34、ish without a natural language environment，their own native tongue always interrupt them.</p><p>　　2. The Limitation of English Learning</p><p>　　The ways of English studying are limited in one

35、or two books, such as the grammatical book, the reading and writing book and so on, which let the learners spontaneously think that the learning of English is just the reciting of grammars and vocabularies. How boring th

36、is studying way is! </p><p>　　Furthermore, the traditional pattern of English teaching is still focusing on examination. The knowledge about English language and background is very little, which causes a lac

37、k of cultural knowledge. So the learners cannot understand English in the whole facets and they cannot master the concrete language points flexibly.</p><p>　　3. All the Class under the Teacher’s Control</

38、p><p>　　In the class, the teacher’s words are all right. The students are absolutely under the teacher's control. In this pattern, there is no way to distinguish teaching from learning because students’ lea

39、rning activities are involved in teacher’s teaching activities. A great problem arising from this kind of education pattern is that students are used to waiting for learning knowledge instead of producing new things acti

40、vely.</p><p>　　Of course, this does not mean we should not use any Traditional English Education. Otherwise, the Traditional English Education also has some advantages.</p><p>　　B. The Advantage

41、s of the Traditional English Education</p><p>　　1. Easily Acceptation to the Old or Middle Aged Teachers </p><p>　　The old or middle age teachers can easily accept it. Now, in the junior or seni

42、or school, there are so many old teachers who have got enough experience in the teaching, but the fast development of the society and the reform of the education systems make them in the trouble. They suddenly don’t know

43、 what to do in the classroom and they are puzzled to face the computer. So it needs time for Online English Education to transform from Traditional English Education.</p><p>　　2. Making the Students Know Mor

44、e about the Textbook</p><p>　　At present, the government changes the traditional idea in the education, and takes the quality of the education as the most important aim, develops the students’ ability in the

45、 filed of the morally, intellectually, physically, aesthetic and labor. However, at the same time, we must get good grade or entry a famous university, so we must study very hard and take many exam papers. This Tradition

46、al English Education can make the students get more knowledge from the textbook, and the resource of th</p><p>　　3. Better Communication Between Teachers and Students</p><p>　　In the traditional

47、 classroom, the teachers and the students can comminute better. If the students have something that they don’t understand, the teacher can give more details to them. Also the teacher can give her or his love and care to

48、them not only in the teaching classroom but also in their daily life. The teacher and the students can be familiar with each other and get more on common. So the Traditional English Education is full of the emotion. More

49、over, the teacher can take her or his teac</p><p>　　C. Analysis of Online English Education</p><p>　　Nowadays, the Internet is becoming significant in our society. People believe that education

50、has the potential to mobilize people and to equip them with capacity of innovation and creation, versatility and adaptability. “Here the potential of new internet technologies offer such people new opportunities for lear

51、ning and achieving their aspirations” (Martino, 6).</p><p>　　1. Offering Us a Lot.</p><p>　　Online English Education is a comfortable way to learn English at your home or office. This education

52、is suitable for students who wish to improve their English level or for teachers who wish to continue to learn. </p><p>　　Firstly, let us look at what the Online English Education can offer us. As Martino ar

53、gues, “One of the main features of the Internet is its openness, its lack of structure or control”. Through the Internet, it is possible to extend learning and teaching activities. What the Internet technologies can prov

54、ide us is one-teacher-to-many students’ interaction mode. With regard to language learning, virtual reality has the potential to transport learners to the country where they are learning its lang</p><p>　　2.

55、 Emails Are One of the Most Convenient Communicative Ways.</p><p>　　Another chief channel of Online English Educational facilities is the email, which is a rapid way to communicate. “It doesn’t allow the imm

56、ediate interruption to our thinking processes” (Jones, K 89). But now the email allows our time to thought. Thanks to the email, the teacher can have convenient and prompt communications with the students, offering those

57、 necessary help and counsel whenever needed and available. For example, Warchauer analyzed the traditional hand-in-and- return method of the </p><p>　　3. The Teacher Can Create a Virtual Classroom </p>

58、<p>　　Currently, a large number of schools offer remote courses.</p><p>　　The Virtual Classroom is a teaching and learning environment located within a computer-mediated communication system. The obje

59、ctives of a Virtual Classroom are to improve the access of advanced educational experience by allowing students and instructors to participate in remote learning communities using personal computers at home or at work; a

60、nd to improve the quality and effectiveness of education by using computer to support a collaboratative learning process. This mode of learning can be mor</p><p>　　One cannot, for example, learn to paint by

61、viewing a finished painting; rather, one must see the evolution of the paining. The student must observe the instructor’s mental process and the instructor must observe that of the student. The special software structure

62、s incorporated in this system were specifically designed to support collaborative learning, including discussions, student presentations, joint projects, debates, role-playing games, etc. Participation is generally async

63、hronous; that is,</p><p>　　An excellent illustration is the Question-Answer Activity, where if the instructor asks a discussion question, every student must answer before facing the other students. This feat

64、ure in Virtual Classroom is equal participation in any discussion issue that the instructor triggers in this manner. It forces each student to think independently. </p><p>　　Another key facility is using of

65、anonymity or pen names. For example, many students with woke experience can point out mistakes without embarrassing their company. This sharing of experience is important to making many courses more relevant to the stude

66、nts who have not lived through such experiences. Many of the features of the current system are summarized in the communication structures table.</p><p>　　D. The Disadvantages of the Online English Education

67、</p><p>　　1. Making a Distance between People’s Emotion</p><p>　　The Online English Education needs the computer, if we need information that we want; we need by just click at the mouse. The stu

68、dents and the teachers communicate through the computer. Thus, they lack of emotion. If the students have some difficulties but they don’t want to ask the teacher, the teacher also doesn’t know about his or her students’

69、 level of the study, then the teacher can’t be flexibly to control the teaching classroom. So there is something wrong with the Online English Educatio</p><p>　　2. Restriction of Condition. </p><p

70、>　　As our country developing, so many high science and technology are used into the education system. In city, every school has her own multimedia classroom and almost every child can operate computer. However, there

71、are many poor places, the rural children have limited resource of the study, most of them still use the simplest tools, such as the stone desk, limestone as chalk, they love textbook but only to copy it by hand. So, it i

72、s still very hard to put the Online Education into widely use. But</p><p>　　3. Making Students Lazier.</p><p>　　The Internet is widely used, and it can be used in studying, playing games, shoppi

73、ng, surfing the material and so on. Many students may be good at study, but have no time to finish the homework, so they surf the Internet and copy other’s production. Moreover, some students aren’t interested in the stu

74、dy, when teacher explain the content of text, they may think it is very boring, so they play games or do what they want to do in the classroom.</p><p>　　II Comparison between Traditional English Education an

75、d Online English Education</p><p>　　Teachers, students and learning material are the three main factors in the whole process of English Education. Traditional English Education and Online English Education g

76、reatly differ from each other in the following aspects.</p><p>　　A. Teachers’ Role</p><p>　　Harmer says,“Teacher plays multiple roles in communicative activities as controller, as assessor, as o

77、rganizer, as prompter, as resource” （Wang Qiang, 69）. A teacher is a decisive factor in second language acquisition because the purpose of language teaching is not to pass on special knowledge to students but to train s

78、tudents to apply knowledge in communication. Only through a great number of practical activities both in and out of classroom, the abilities can be developed among students. So, </p><p>　　More than 900 unive

79、rsity English teachers in 48 universities and colleagues were interviewed by the Chinese Foreign Language Teaching and Research Center in early 2002. The result showed that more than 60% of the interviewed college Englis

80、h teachers chose pair work or group work as the rarest activities in their classroom teaching but they chose explaining the text and doing exercises in the textbook as the most frequent ones. 84.5% of the interviewed tea

81、chers thought it was a waste of time to l</p><p>　　However，in an Online English Class, a teacher may act as organizer, assessor, prompter, participant and resource, because it requires changes in teachers’ r

82、oles, approaches and attitudes toward teaching to use the network in language teaching. The Online English Class is learner-centered，because “Teaching with computer-assisted language learning tools brings an underlying a

83、ssumption that the more students do for themselves, the more learning takes place” (Berge, Z & Collin 235). SO “teachers mus</p><p>　　As we all know, the natural environment of language learning is most

84、significant, just as Hatch said, “While social interaction may give the leader the ‘best’ data to work with, the brain in turn must work out a fitting and relevant model of that input.”(Gu Y.G, 78)</p><p>　　

85、B. Applications of Teaching and Learning Resources</p><p>　　The biggest disadvantage for Chinese learners in studying English is lack of native environment. “For centuries, Traditional English Education has

86、primarily focused on building foundational knowledge and skills of languages via the transfer of grammatical knowledge and explanation of vocabulary usages from the teacher to the student; the tool for teaching is primar

87、ily the textbook determined by educational authorities” (Wang Qing, 89). To make up for this misadvise, linguists and educators have </p><p>　　Today, “both teachers and students have at their disposal much r

88、icher resources for education related information whether they go on line to take an online course, surf the net to look for reference materials, or use newspapers, multimedia packaged courses, or use CD-ROMs or DVD, etc

89、 for teaching and learning.” (Wang Qiang, 79). The World Wide Website, the largest database in the world can provide plenty of English language materials to teachers and students. E-mail makes it possible for student<

90、/p><p>　　Of course, this does not mean we should always use Online English Education, as well as Online English Education also has its fault.</p><p>　　C. Organization of Teaching and Learning Activ

91、ities</p><p>　　Organization of teaching and learning activities is a way to achieve the goals that the teacher intends. The goal of traditional English teaching has been to help students read and appreciate

92、the selected written passages in the textbook, and the most popular way is to explain to the students the necessary vocabulary, grammatical structures, difficult sentences and exercise parts. The traditional procedure in

93、 teaching vocabulary is that the teacher explains in detail about the usages of the word</p><p>　　However, now, the curriculum is reformed in china. The model of the curriculum based on the CLT (Computer Lan

94、guage Translator). Speaking is the central task for students’. But the problem for the learners is that they feel stress and anxiety when they have to speak in public. “They are embarrassing to raise their hands to answe

95、r questions in class; they are very nervous when the teacher asks them questions which they have not prepared for; they are afraid of making mistakes; that they feel very </p><p>　　The activity of group work

96、 and pair work in Online English Education offers a helpful attempt that students are quite willing to exchange their ideas in English study and cooperate with each other to work out the same work. In the traditional cla

97、ssroom, students compete against each other, which often lead to silence in class. On the contrary, students often feel secure and at ease when they work in small groups. “Learners can offer each other with the genuine c

98、ommunicative practice including ne</p><p>　　D. Teachers’ Supervision of Learning Process</p><p>　　Teacher’s supervision of students’ learning process is an essential part. With classroom English

99、 education pattern, teachers usually examine whether students are attentive to class and to what extent they have grasped the language points by asking them questions. Students are competitive in answering questions, so
