In the college English teaching system, we need the network-based autonomous teaching mode, and effective evaluation system of English teaching is also necessary. A complete set of teaching evaluation system can truly reffect the teaching effect, and can promote the optimization of teaching activities as well. Therefore, in order to realize the effectiveness of English teaching and to expand the diversifi ed teaching mode, we need to build a complete set of English language system. Classroom teaching evaluation is one of the effective means to improve the teaching efficiency, which reffects the characteristics of college English courses. After the digitalization of the teaching methods, the network information produced in the teaching and management has obvious characteristics of large data. The optimized evaluation system of college English classroom teaching has realized the diversifi cation of evaluation subjects.展开更多

Campus sports culture is a combination of basic social culture and sports culture in the campus group products, with cultural characteristics. System science is to provide the comprehensive approach for us, whether it is system engineering or operations research, whether the system analysis and network planning, the system provides the scientific research methods are first in the whole system of standing height above, students through the independent thinking, listening carefully, hands-on operation, active speech and other explicit behavior, and while constantly internalized teaching content and enrich their knowledge structure. Under this basis, this paper proposes the new idea of the teaching model of the physical education in colleges based on interactive teaching method and participatory teaching.

The following questions are proposed: (1) What is interactionist theory?; (2) How can we improve interaction between international students and faculty?; and (3) How can we improve interaction between international students and domestic students? According to these questions, literature review was conducted to explain interactionist theory, and the possibility that interactionist theory can be applied in internationalized curriculum was discussed in two aspects: (1) enhancing the interaction between international students and faculty when teaching internationalized curriculum; and (2) enhancing the interaction between international students and domestic students when teaching internationalized curriculum.展开更多

Consequently, educational programs for teaching engineers should work with the fact that the capability of communicating with people with different background competences is important, nevertheless the engineering education has traditionally focused on technical skills rather than on personal development. In order to reform the B.Sc. courses to guide students to become better and more efficient engineers on all levels, the DTU (Technical University of Denmark) and Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences (Metropolia) modified their education according to the CDIO (conceive, design, implement and operate) approach in the autumn of 2008. The CDIO pedagogy encouraged to develop an interactive course in interpersonal skills, where the students have to take an active part in the exercises as well as involve themselves in the interactive communication process. The course consists of various exercises from which the participants will develop their awareness and knowledge of communication. It is the intention to give the students a personal understanding and idea of a different approach to communicating between people. The students evaluated the course, and the four key questions dealing with the quality of the course show a very high satisfaction with the instruction. The grades one and two (1 best/very much, 5 worst/very little) of the responses "to these four questions are ranging on average from 69.5% to 88% (on a yearly basis). The positive responses indicate that the students are very satisfied with the course recognizing the need for education on international communication.展开更多

In the future research, we will combine the advances of multimedia teaching with our clothing design major education to make it more effective.展开更多

The schema embodying the learners background knowledge of cultural familiar materials facilitates the understanding of the text (Pritchard, 1990). Also Steffensen, Joag-Dev, and Anderson (1979) and Nelson (1987) proposed that the schemata embodying background knowledge influenced how well the text would be comprehended. However, Hudson (1982) and Carrell (1984) found there was no significant background effect in advanced level learners. From those studies, it seems that background effect is different at different language proficiency levels. Thus, the present study examines the interaction between background knowledge and language proficiency in reading comprehension. The participants were freshmen of National Chiayi University. They were divided into three language proficiency levels based on the General English Proficiency Test. Four reading comprehension tests were constructed to assess their reading comprehension: cultural familiar/unfamiliar text and topic familiar/unfamiliar text. The results of this study showed that participants had better performance on the culture/topic familiar text than the culture/topic unfamiliar text. Thus the findings suggest that the teacher can use teaching activities, such as pre-reading activities or vocabulary teaching to increase the background knowledge when teaching readings to EFL (English as a foreign language) learners展开更多

In quite a long time, college English teaching still continues to use the traditional teaching methods. Students' ability to use the language in real communication does not seem to conform to the scores that they have achieved. At present, college English has met the trend of quality-oriented education and provided new thoughts for English classroom teaching. This paper puts forward the problems in domestic college English teaching based on many theories and studies. It clarifies the concept of interaction, the features and models of interaction.

It demonstrates that the second decade of the present century marks a shift, albeit nascent, in a) Iranian teachers and officials' attitudes towards the content and method of English language teaching in terms of the need for greater interaction in the classroom, and b) raised awareness of the importance of culture in language teaching. We pose the question: "how can Iran continue to build on new ideas about English language teaching at school and tertiary levels with a view to improving not only pupils'/students' performance but also embracing modernity in a globalized world?" The discussion is based on a survey of literature addressing the current state of English education in Iran.展开更多
