Abstract:	本文係根據作者為期一年的英語會話課程，旨在訓練學生各種語言技能的親身教學經驗。課程的活動之一是要求學生實際製作一齣電視短劇，強迫學生應用英文達到預期之教學目標。製作過程中，學生獲得人際關係之技巧，將有助於未來出社會之就業。本文發現透過教師認真的教學，可逐漸使學生擺脫傳統以來以教師為中心之教學法，改採學習動機高與全語型的學生為中心的學習法，充份發揮學生各別的優點。 This paper is developed from the author's firsthand experience in leading his English Conversation students through a yearlong class exercise designed to train them in a variety of skills. The activity, the actual production of a television sitcom, forces students to use English toward the accomplishment of an established goal. Along the way, they also learn a variety of interpersonal skills that will prove essential to success in their various careers. This pragmatic article demonstrates, in a step-by-step fashion, how energetic instructors can wean their students from a teacher-centered class with a focus upon a textbook, toward a more motivational and holistic student-centered method of learning and language use that takes advantage of the strengths of each individual.
