A sample lesson plan for Using Language

(ANDY— THE ANDROID) 教学设计说明

本单元的话题是Computers, 介绍计算机的发展历程和现代电脑的工作原理。“现在完成被动式”是本单元的句法项目。Using language 是一节包括听说读写单项技能或组合技能训练的“综合技能课。因此,对于这节课的设计,我首先设计了一个引导学生围绕IT进行听、记得活动；其次再进行主观性说、写活动，鼓励学生活用本单元学到的词汇、短语、结构和话题；然后是读、说活动，让学生读一则足球机器人的自述，并谈论对机器人的看法；最后帮助学生以机器人口吻写一则告示，做到活用本单元学到的词汇、短语、结构和话题。

Procedures 1. Warming up by talking about IT Computers

is the topic this week. And they are a part of IT technology. But what is IT or Information Technology? Information technology (IT) or information and communication technology (ICT) is the technology required for information processing. In particular the use of electronic computers and computer software to convert, store, protect, process, transmit, and retrieve information from anywhere, anytime. 2. Talking about how to choose a computer Suppose you and your partner are going to help choose computers for your school. Now talk

about how to choose which computer in groups of four.

If you are a student or you are going to be using this computer for such purposes as: research, surfing the web, playing card games, word processing, book keeping, or anything of the like, you may get a processor that is planned for these activities. You

do not need anything super fast, but you do not want to get too low end either, otherwise you will be left in the technological dust when the new processors come out and everyone you know upgrades. To know more about computers turn to page 18. 3. Reading, underlining and speaking It is said that computers could be put into androids or robots. Read the text Andy—The Android, underlining all the expressions and think of the fun you could have!

Expressions from Andy—The Android part of a football team, once a year, on the football team, think like a human, shout to…, in computer language, have a good shot for a goal, get second place, win the first place, have a new kind of program, improve one’s intelligence, create a better system, play against a human team, in a way, program…with…, make up…

4. Closing down by writing a letter Suppose you are an android. What would say to a spoiled child who would not do his homework? Write a letter to the boy. Hi, everyone.

I am Alu, a 321 model android. I work for the Wang family in Taiyuan. I look like a pretty Chinese girl in her twenties. I am planned to work only in the daytime. The boy I look after asks me to do almost everything for him. That’s too much for me, because I am not paid. I am here to serve the family. But I have my own android feelings. I like to be treated like a real human girl.

Next time the boy asks me to do his homework for him, I’d report to his teacher. If his teacher does not give the boy a good lesson I will certainly do that.

I am an android with feelings and emotions!
