Analysis of teaching material
Status and function
This unit talks about the topic of the silver screen, which is one of modern civlisations. Nowadays the silver screen has been one way of people’s entertainments and leisure， so it is very actually performed for us. At the same time, this kind of material just fits the need of new curriculm, and the reading part has provided lots of knowledge and information of foreign directors and films. That is, it is the main and most important part of this unit.(2). The teaching part contains pre-reading, reading and post-reading a. In pre-reading part the information of Steven Spielberg’s earlier experience of making films is introduced briefly. First let students imagine: If they have a chance to make a film, what kind of film will they make? This kind of design is good for the students’ imagination, and also it is a good start to do next. However, maybe it is difficult for our students here to do so. Instead I will show some photos of famous directors and some pictures of films to the students, and get them to learn more information about some famous directors. It will inspire their enthusiasm for the films. When the photo of Steven Spielberg is shown, I will make students say something about Spielberg. Then I will introduce his earlier experience of making films, and then move to the next part (reading) naturally.b. Reading part is a short biography of Steven Spielberg. His career and some famous works are talked in this part. By reading this part, students can learn something more about the famous director and his works, and also can help them understand the meaning of success.c. There are five questions in the first part of post-reading. In order to improve the students’ readingcomprehension and train their logic abilities, the students will discuss these questions in groups. The other part is a chart which talks about Spielberg’ several famous films. The main purpose of this part is to train the students’ writing a brief introduction for the films. So I will have the students finish this part in the reading part after they learn some Spielberg’s films from the text.(3). The advantages of learning the silver screenculture are to broaden the students’ view of culture and develop their communicative competence. At the same time, through teaching of this part, the teachers also can strengthen our own culturelearning and widen our own knowledge fields.
