甘文平主編的《新國標大學英語視聽說(附光盤
1)》是在認真學習《大學英語教學指南》和全國各地
大學英語教學改革的經驗後，密切結合大學英語教學
改革新動向，專門為我國普通高等院校大學生量身定
做的通用英語繫列教程。教學目標主要針對基礎級別
，兼顧提高級別。與高中新課標和四六級考試無縫對
接，使大學生通過快樂、友好的英語學習體驗，掌握
《指南》規定的基礎目標和提高目標語言技能，提高
跨文化交際能力和批判性思維能力。
本教材專門針對初次步入大學校園的非英語專業
大學生而量身打造的作為基礎層級的通用英語教材。
教材力求素材和話題密切結合學生學習和生活實際，
以大學校園生活為核心，適當在時空兩個維度進行拓
展，時間上兼顧大學生的成長經歷（過去）和未來的
職業發展（將來），空間上橫跨中西大學生學習和生
活上的文化差異。每個單元貫徹“主題教學模式”和
“以學生為中心”的思想。素材和練習盡量采用學生
喜聞樂見的多媒體呈現方式（如圖形化的平面展示，
多媒體的素材輸入）；在練習設計上倡導“以教師為
主導，以學生為主體”的師生關繫和“任務式、合作
式、探究式和項目式”的教學方式，為學生們帶來學
習的快樂。
