Dạy học Vật lí bằng tiếng Anh ở Trường Trung học phổ thông chuyên Lào Cai theo tiếp cận EMI (English as a Medium of Instruction)
Tóm tắt
Teaching Mathematics and Science in English is an inevitable trend of education in the integration period. Official Letter 955/BGDĐT-DANN clearly states that “Regarding integrating foreign languages in some other subjects, teaching other subjects (such as Mathematics and science subjects) in foreign languages: implementing /piloting the program at educational institutions that are in need and are eligible”. However, teaching natural science in English in general and Physics in English in particular has been facing some difficulties in using appropriate English vocabulary to present concepts, Asking questions, building hypotheses, conducting experiments, interpreting and clarifying the content of Physics knowledge, etc. Using English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) in teaching Physics in English contributes to overcoming the above challenges, improving students’ learning efficiency. The article presents some overview of EMI and the application of EMI in teaching Physics in English at Lao Cai High School for the Gifted as well as provides descriptive statistical analysis of students' responses after school. That is the basis for considering the use of the EMI approach in teaching Physics in English in particular and natural sciences in English in general.
