讲座内容简介：
Foreign Language Education is handicapped by paradoxes that prevent it from furthering its mission. Methods are often taught without epistemology, students tend to communicate without contents. Teaching of cultures is often sanitized and stereotyped. Teacher educators professionalize student teachers who rarely understand their own cultural identity, potential foreignness and otherness. The way to deal with these contradictions is to articulate new priorities and reconceptualize the field as the inescapable branch of learning for world peace and social justice. Deep content-based learning places the emphasis on the quality of professional development within the accomplishment of projects. Professor Tochon offers a new perspective on educative practice, which targets transdisciplinary aims. The deep learning process gives rise to a variety of outcomes that cannot always be fully anticipated. Therefore, deep evaluation is open and focuses on creative work. Deep content-based learning places the emphasis on the quality of the acquisition process and proficiency development within the accomplishment of projects.

Dr. Francois Victor Tochon is a Professor in the Department of Curriculum & Instruction at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

From 2001 to 2007, he headed World Language Education and since 2008 the Graduate Program in World Language Education. Prof. Tochon worked on intercultural issues related to bilingualism in various countries and international language policies, looking for new ways to organize language teaching and learning. In 2009-2011, he received an award from the U.S. Department of Education to create, research and evaluate a “Deep Approach” to foreign language curricula that would respect a pluralistic and federative view of language policies. It allowed him to format an interface between language policies and classroom curricula and practices. He was also awarded grants from Spencer and Tubitak—National Science and Technology Foundation of Turkey—to study ways to internationalize Education through e-portfolios, world languages and an intercultural approach. With twenty-five books and more than hundred fifty articles and book chapters to his credit, Prof. Tochon has also been Visiting Professor in many universities around the planet. He is currently published in 11 languages. Among his books: Tropics of Teaching: Productivity, Warfare, and Priesthood (University of Toronto Press); The Foreign Self: Truth Telling as Educational Inquiry (Atwood); Help them Learn a Language Deeply (Deep University Press).
