教学自评
此案例在2003年全国高中英语教学优质课比赛中获一等奖。
通过教学 "TO WEB OR NOT TO WEB" 这一对话课时，主要让学生通过对话的学习掌握用英语发表自己的意见、给别人提建议及如何做出相应回答的常用句式；并学会如何用英语主持会议；如何用得体的语言拒绝别人的建议；并使学生将所学内容与现实生活相结合真正了解有关上网的优劣及该如何利用网络服务于学习。在构思和设计该课的教学内容时，笔者做了以下尝试：
1．设计新颖的导入，激发学生的兴趣。
学生对所学材料感兴趣是激发其学习兴趣的最好办法。笔者在设计导入时注意自然的过渡，为学生进入正文的学习作好铺垫。通过打出图片及提问题与学生讨论、交流来激发兴趣并积极参与。
2．教学过程有序，并注意贯彻任务型教学。
注意教学内容的由浅入深、循序渐进自然过渡；突出每一过程的目的性，从未知——认知——再认知——实践——能力——完成任务（解决现实生活中的问题）。
3．创设真实情景，鼓励学生运用所学语言与他人交际。
学习外语的最终目的是用外语进行交际，因此，笔者注意为学生提供多种相关信息来模拟真实情景进行对话，因为只有通过有意义的交流才能学会一种语言。使学生在进一步理解所学语言材料的基础上创造性地运用语言，同时让每个学生的个性在交际活动中得到发展。
4．合理发挥多媒体体课件的作用，提高课堂效益。
课件能直观、形象、生动地展开语言交际的情景，从而增强语言的信息量和趣味性。
在本课的教学中，笔者注意突出以学生为中心，注意教师角色的转变，并为学生提供多种形式的分组练习，从而圆满地完成了本课的教学任务，较好地实现了本课的教学目的。
