1.教材案例分析　　　　

本课是第四单元的第一课，教材围绕人们对数字空间未来发展的设想展开话题。电脑及网络是目前多数中学生经常接触的事物，因此在教学中，可以在学生现有的知识基础上，引导学生进一步预测电脑和网络的发展，并思考这种发展可能产生积极和消极的影响。　　

    本单元的Warm-up 部分为第一课做了很好的话题和词汇方面的铺垫，因此本课可以从延续Warm-up 的话题入手，让学生进一步理解cyberspace 的含义，了解不同的人对数字空间未来发展的预测和态度。本课与第2课的话题Website 联系也很紧密，可以为下一课的话题做话题和词汇的铺垫。　　

     本课的生词也比较多，也比较困难。因此，最好在几个活动中分层次帮助学生学习，并在教学活动中不断复习和运用新词汇。教师也可以帮助学生围绕话题，按照一定类别记忆词汇。本课的语法教学重点和难点是will 和 be going to 在表达预测时的区别。但是在教学过程中，我觉得不要对这两者的区别过于细化和规则化，重点是让学生理解和使用。　　

 2. 教材重组　　　　

本课第一课时重点是获取互联网发展的有关信息，并用自己的语言转述信息，进行词汇学习。因此通过阅读，让学生能够找出人们对数值空间发展的预测和态度，并将这些信息进行归纳和整理。　　

在教学时将Warm-up, Tomorrow’s World中的Reading和Vocabulary,及Language Power中的练习题6 (page 55) 和 Word Corner(page 55)整合在一起上一节“阅读理解课”。
