The adaptative studies on teacher's roles in bilingual classroom teaching

Abstract

Based on Jef Verschueren's, Yu Guodong localizes it into the Adaptation Model to analyze and explain the English-Chinese code-switching indicating that the reason why communicators choose two or more languages in the same communicative discourse is that they want to adapt to the linguistic reality, the social conventions, or the psychological motivations so as to reach the particular communicative goal. This echoes with the teaching practice language use in bilingual education and can help bilingual teachers to clarify their roles in classroom teaching to enhance the teaching effect. © 2013 ACADEMY PUBLISHER Manufactured in Finland.
