摘要:自高中英语新课程标准实施以来，为了更好地培养发展学生的英语思维能力，提高他们的英语综合运用能力，很多高中英语教师采取在课堂上让学生做daily report的方式来实现这一目的，但是实际情况并不令人满意。本文通过问卷调查、教师访谈和课堂实录的方法进行调查，采用观察法、比较研究法，旨在研究当前国内大班制教学下，分析高中英语课堂中daily report的实践情况，包括教师对daily report的理念，运用方式和运用效果，以及学生的daily report的认识和实践情况等等, 发现尽管大多数教师和学生都已经意识到了daily report对培养高中生的英语口语、听力、写作等能力，对提高高中生学习英语的积极性和兴趣的帮助，以及培养学生的英语思维能力，帮助学生构建其英语知识体系与框架等方面的重要性和有利之处，但是在高中英语课堂上，daily report的实践操作中还是存在不少问题的，主要原因还是教师缺乏相关的理论指导或实践经验，不少教师与学生之间的交流互动不够，影响了daily report对英语教学的作用。故本文结合互动式教学法和社会建构主义的理论知识，针对研究过程中发现的一些问题，从课堂教学实施层面提出具体可行的教学建议，并对本文研究的局限性进行了阐释。
