台大多国语言交换社 缘起: 我有一位从小在法国长大的朋友,她到国中时才回到台湾;我学日文的时间满久了, 虽然离Native Speaker的程度还有一大截,但对於初学者可给予有效的帮助.我有短时间 内把法文念好的需求,不断地寻求练习的机会,於是我问她语言交换的可能性.一开始,我 们都很怀疑这样是否真的能有效互助,很担心amenalism(片利共生)的情况发生.然而,结 果都令我们满意.所以,我相信,即使不是Native speakers之间的语言交换,也是可以达 到效果的. 此外,就现行学校的外语课程来说,说的机会实在很少,若能与志同道合的朋友 有外语聊天,一定会进步的很快.这个社团,除了语言交换之外,还有练习会话的功能. 创社之理念: 传统上,语言学习可分为"听,说,读,写"四项,"读"的能力很容易自修取得,持之以恒的必定 有所成果;"听"在过去可能是语言学习者的忧虑,但在网路发达的今日,听的来源不胜枚举, 以英语为例,BBC,CNN,ICRT,STUDIO classroom...,自行在家养成优良听的能力,并非难事; 属於输出的"说"和"写"就很难自修,其中,写的训练是最麻烦的,不但需要有耐心持续的写, 还需要一位老师帮忙批改,所费不赀."说",一般人可能觉得一定要找个老外聊天才会进步. 没错,到了极高级的境界,的确需要母语人士的有系统的指导,会话能力才能有所进步.但对 口说能力属於中下程度的学习者来说,只要有许多说的机会,很快就能掌握会话能力. 此外 ，有监於语言交换难寻，我们想建立一个提供语言交换的平台，让更多人能找到学习语言 的夥伴。 社团活动进行之方式: 1)社员间的会话练习暨语言交换: 我们依语言别分组，从社员中选出学有专精的小组长，社员可依自己的兴趣在 活动时间自由参加不同组别。在每个语言组别中，只能以该组指定语言交谈，小 组长会准备讨论题目、教材，让大家在交谈中不但增加口语能力，也能学的新的 字汇与表达方法。如果真的无法用别的语言沟通说明,才以英文辅助.在这样的环境中,大 家自然而然地会习惯说英文,不但可以练习说第二外语,英文也会越说越流利.此外，我们 的教学团队会不断研究游戏、活动，让大家在自然而然在各种情境中增进口语能力。 2)语言交换之募集: 至各大中文学校作广告,请想学中文的外国朋友来跟我们做语言交换 3)社课:关於外语学习的各种课程,外聘老师或请学有专精之社员授课 指导老师 --- 史嘉琳 外文系 美利坚合众国明尼苏达州人,从小对语言就很有兴趣,语言学是她的专长,其中语 音学是她最自豪的学门. 最令人惊讶的,莫过於她的中文,说的完全跟我们这些native speakers 一模一样.此外,她还通晓德、西、法、义、葡等印欧语系的主要语言,"会"的语 言则不胜枚举,实为担任本社团指导老师的第一人选,我们很高兴能请到史教授担任我们的 指导老师. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ NTU Multi-Language Exchange Our objective: Learning a language can be a costly undertaking, especially when it comes to writing and speaking practice. Good written materials and online audio and video resources are easily available in many languages, so reading and listening practice in the target language can be done on one's own without too much help from others. Writing and speaking practice, on the other hand, require someone to give you feedback and corrections. Privately-arranged one-to-one language exchanges are free, but their effectiveness is limited. Our objective is to offer, at minimum expense, a flexible platform for language exchange that focuses on speaking ability. Through diverse activities, members can spend pleasant hours not just their polishing language skills but also making friends. We invite everybody interested to come and enjoy the activities of our club - and to bring your friends! Club activities: 1. Conversation in different languages: Club members choose a group in which their target language, e.g. English or French, is spoken. Each group is assigned a leader who excels in the target language, and who provides topics and materials for discussion. Club members are free to join different groups based on their needs and interests. Group members are expected to communicate only in the target language of the group they have joined. Through this exchange, group members can learn new words, expressions, and correct grammatical usage in the target language, and maybe pick up some interesting cultural background as well. 2. Language exchanges: For those wishing to practice their Chinese, the club can help set up an individual language exchange with a club member or members. 3. Language Courses: The club will offer a variety of language courses taught by skilled club members or non-member instructors. Club Advisor: Karen S.
