13、 effect to achieve the teaching objective and satisfy the need of the society and personal education. Form 90 time end 20 century, the study of the effective teaching has been started in our country. But people, at that time, didnt pay too much attention to it. Since 2001, with the start of the new

14、elementary education curriculum reform, the study of the effective teaching became the one big popular topic in the educational circles. Actually, people could learn this teaching thought since the every early timethe time of John Dewey(18591952). John Dewey pointed out that the education should be

15、the one to inspire childrens mind. He also made a mention of the “five-steps teaching method”, which had a deep influence on the educational theory and practice in America at the first half of 20th century. Roland Tharp(1930), the professor of the university of California, has mentioned the five sta

Until 2008, there are 4 PhD dissertations on China Excellent MA and PhD Degree P, Analysis of Effective Communication in Class (张希希, 2001), Studies of

These five standards of effective teaching would be the guidance standards in this thesis. According to the reports from the education departments in our country, at presen

Many colleges and universities are driving to set up the English department and enlarge the enrollment. Though government spends a lot of time and money on the English ed

Children between 5 to 8 have their own advantage of foreign language study. They have their own way of thinki

The second language educators should take advantage of the childrens characteristics, teach in an effective way by observing the effective teaching theory, and build up a good start for childrens life.The thesis consists of three parts. Part One is an introduction to the e

Part Two is a detailed analysis of the effective teaching application on the spoken English education. It is divided into four chapters. Chapter One is the res

The Meaning of Spoken English Teaching between the Age of 5 to 8 in ChinaEnglish has become more and more important in our social and economic development. Due to the emphasis on English education, many primary schools start the En

28、glish class since the early primary education and many universities set up the foreign language department to satisfy the social need of the English talents. But it also brings a lot of problems. The language educators dont have enough time and energy to take care of each student in large classes. T

29、hey could not satisfy all the students need. And this phenomena leads to the issues of ineffective teaching. The current situation of the foreign language education in China has stuck in a dilemma2.1 The current situation There is a growing tendency of English leaner that the English Language abilit

30、y can be tested by means of some testing, for example, TOTLE, GRE and ect. Actually, it cant prove anything even if students have the ability to pass these exams. As people arrive America, the only way for them to survive is opening the mouth, trying the best to express themselves and voicing themse

31、lves loudly to be heard. If someone can only read in English but communicate, then he or she would have a hard time in these English speaking countries. In China, English corners would be found easily in every schoolelementary schools, middle schools, collages and universities, even in the Foreign L

32、anguage Training Agencies, and every participant with high enthusiasm talk with each other in English. But these unprofessional practices cause the unprofessional English presentation. Consequently, Chinese are used to communicate with the foreigners in their Chinese-English which make the foreigner

33、 confused and Chinese also cant get the meaning of the native speaker. For the language study, it supposes to follow the order of listening-speaking-reading-writing. If the language education couldnt follow this order and the students are unable to hear and understand what the native speaker said, t

34、hen all the other higher developments would only be told in the paper. 2.1.1 The scale and the social needs According to the reports from the education departments in our country, at present, there are over 70% of the elementary schools of the cities and towns has set up the English courses and over

35、 30% in countries. The numbers of the pupils in the whole nation, nearly 13 million, mean that there are at least 5 to 6 million pupils has begun to learn English in different times. According to the requirement of China, the foreign language education should be set up as early as possible, generall

36、y, in the grade three. With the rapid development of the social and educational system, many areas start the course at grade one, or even in the nursery school. Now some schools have set up the bilingual education since grade five or grade six, and some of the nursery schools start the bilingual edu

37、cation at the beginning. Truly, Chinese education enterprise，especially the higher education, has developed in a very high speed in nearly two decades with the economical development of rapidness. In 2005, the number of students in junior colleges and university undergraduates has reached 16.25 mill

38、ion. Its fact that 90% of the foreign language courses, which have been set up by all these schools, are English. It means that there are over 100 million enrollments learning English. With the addition of the pupils and adults who learn English, it is no exaggeration to say that China possesses the

39、 largest population of English learning. In recent years, the demand of high English applied ability is raised by the enterprise concerning foreign nation. More and more colleges and universities are drive to set up the English department and enlarge the enrollment by the growing tendency of the nee

40、ds of English talents. 2.1.2 The dilemma situationThough Chinese government emphasizes the importance of English education, most of the English learners, accepting the English education more than ten years, are unable to understand the English, communicate with English, not to speak of writing their

41、 own resumes in English. Many graduates, including the postgraduates, are inclined to take the English courses by their own in some educational agencies while they enter the services. The professional experts and social critics voice their skeptical view highly about the quality of the English educa

42、tion systems, and some of them air their opinion of incisiveness. At present, the biggest controversial problem of the elementary English education system is that it takes too much time on it. On the one hand, government brings forward the minimum age for starting to English study time after time. I

43、n the past, students began to learn English in the middle school, but now, they adopt them in grade one. On the other hand, government lengthens the time of the elementary English education again and again. In another word, a doctor also needs to acquire the elementary English education and a master

44、 must spend him or her over eighteen years to accept this kind of education. Though government spends a lot of time and money on the English education, their strategies of personnel training of English are wrong and very few attain the ability to master English for general technical communication. T

45、here is no denying fact that it is a kind of waste to invest the massive manpower, physical resource and financial resource. Compared with the cost of time, expense and opportunity, the profit from the English education are actually limited. English examination is just one of methods to evaluate the

46、 education in the process of English education, but not the only one. The situation of the status in quo is completely reversed to passing the exam has became the aim of study to a great deal of students. Not only the students, but also the leaders of school, the teacher and the parents have the voi

47、ce that the passing rate of the exams is one of the teaching evaluation criteria to measure the educational effects of the school. At present, there are three kinds of English standardized tests implemented in China. The first one is the high school entrance examination, to pick out the high school

48、for the students. The second one is the college entrance examination, to find out which kind of university students have the qualification of enroll. The last is the CET4 which most of the sophomores are asked to pass. Some of the colleges and universities require the juniors and seniors to take the

49、 CET6 when they have passed the CET4. For the English major students, it is obliged to pass TEM4. The excellent students could take the TEM8 to prove their ability. The colleges and universities bind the degree with the CET4 certificate or TEM4 certificate. In order to get their degree, students have to do a lot of exercises to pass CET4 or TEM4 and regard the result o
