人工智能在少儿英语自然拼读课程设计中的创新应用研究

Research on the Innovative Application of Artificial Intelligence in the Design of Children’s English Phonics Curriculum

摘要: 英语自然拼读法(Phonics)是种国际主流的英语教学方法，尤其在美国儿童语言启蒙中广泛应用。如何提升对少儿英语自然拼读课程的设计水平，成为新时期下少儿英语教学工作者所探究的热点议题之一。为研究人工智能技术(Artificial Intelligence，文中简称AI)在少儿英语自然拼读课程设计中的创新应用，此次采取文献资料法、案例分析法与实践经验法来展开分析。首先，对AI与少儿英语自然拼读的两个核心概念进行了简要阐释，明确其内涵；其次，分析AI用于少儿英语自然拼读课程设计的优势，如能精准匹配不同学生的个体差异、能激活学生的学习兴趣。最后，以短元音“a”的自然拼读课程为具体案例，重点分析AI用于少儿课程设计的创新实践策略，并总结出可行化的教学设计方案，包括教学目标、教学准备、教学流程、教学评价与反馈等内容，详述如下。

Abstract: Phonics is an internationally mainstream English teaching method, especially widely used in the language enlightenment of children in the United States. How to enhance the design level of children’s English phonics courses has become one of the hot topics explored by children’s English educators in the new era. To study the innovative application of Artificial Intelligence (AI for short in this paper) in the curriculum design of children’s English phonics, this time the methods of literature review, case analysis and practical experience are adopted for analysis. Firstly, a brief explanation of the two core concepts of AI and children’s English phonics was provided to clarify their connotations. Secondly, analyze the advantages of using AI in the design of children’s English phonics courses, such as accurately matching the individual differences of different students and activating students’ interest in learning. Finally, taking the phonics course of the short vowel “a” as a specific case, this paper focuses on analyzing the innovative practical strategies of applying AI to children’s curriculum design, and summarizes a feasible teaching design plan, including teaching objectives, teaching preparations, teaching processes, teaching evaluation and feedback, etc. The details are as follows.
