內容簡介
《美國歷史文化》是在內容依託教學理念指導下，依託國家哲學社會科學項目“英語專業基礎階段內容依託式教學改革研究”推出的系列英語內容依託教材之一，是大連外國語學院和遼寧省兩級教學成果一等獎並獲得國家級教學成果二等獎。這套系列教材的推出具有重要的理論意義和重大的現實意義。
隨著我國英語教育的快速發展，英語專業長期貫徹的“以技能為導向”的課程建設理念及教學理念已經難以滿足社會的需要。專家教師們密切關注的現行英語專業教育大、中、國小英語教學脫節，語言、內容教學割裂，單純語言技能訓練過多，專業內容課程不足，學科內容課程系統性差，高低年級內容課程安排失衡及其導致的學生知識面偏窄、知識結構欠缺、思辨能力偏弱、綜合素質發展不充分等問題日益凸顯。
