活动理论视角下构建研究生英语课程思政活动系统

摘要

本研究基于社会文化理论和活动理论，构建了研究生英语课程思政活动系统模型，探讨了研究生英语课堂教学与价值观培育、文化认同建构的双向促进机制。模型通过教材价值观内涵的深度挖掘与教学活动的有机融合，结合“用英语讲中国故事”等多元化实践路径，实现了系统要素的协同作用，有效促进了学生语言能力、技能发展与价值目标的统一。实证研究表明，该教学系统显著提升了学生的学习动机、英语应用能力及中国文化阐释能力。研究结果为深化研究生英语课程思政建设提供了理论依据和实践框架，对增强学生文化认同、培养文化自信、实现文化自强具有重要的借鉴意义。

Abstract

This study, grounded in sociocultural theory and activity theory, proposes a systematic model for integrating ideological and political education into postgraduate English courses. It investigates the bidirectional promotion mechanism between English classroom instruction and the cultivation of students' values and cultural identity. The model fosters the synergistic interaction of system elements by thoroughly exploring the value connotations of teaching materials and seamlessly incorporating them into instructional activities. This approach is complemented by diverse practical methods, such as "telling China's stories in English." Empirical findings demonstrate that the proposed course system significantly enhances students' learning motivation, English proficiency, and ability to interpret Chinese culture. The results offer a solid theoretical foundation and practical framework for promoting ideological and political education in postgraduate English courses, providing valuable insights into strengthening students' cultural identity, fostering cultural confidence, and advancing cultural self-reliance.
