随着语言教学的重点从注重认知过程逐步转向强调学习者的心智和非语言因素,越来越多的学者关注情感因素在知识的获取过程中所起到的作用。研究情绪智能的发展过程及这一理论和其他相关外语教学理论的一致性,有益于学生完整人格的发展,符合当代高等教育发展的趋势。 As the focus of language teaching has shifted from focusing on cognitive process to emphasizing learners’ mental and non-linguistic factors, more and more scholars pay attention to the role of affective factors in acquiring knowledge. Studying the development of emotional intelligence and the consistency of this theory with other related foreign language teaching theories is beneficial to the development of students’ complete personality and in line with the trend of the development of contemporary higher education.
