A Study of EFL Teachers' code-switching in Vocational College Intensive Reading Classroom

In the past 30 years, code-switching has been a focus in the field of linguistics in western countries. Researchers stud?ied it from different angles and have made a lot of findings.However, the researchers in China begin their studies on this issue un?til the last decade. Thus,the relevent empirical studies were less and most of them only use students from the classrooms in the sec?ondary schools or the undergraduates in the universities as the subjects.They paid little attention to the EFL classrooms in the vo?cational colleges. Vocational college students are poor in English foundation. English teachers can not finish their teaching mission in English classroom, so the use of code-switching becomes a very common phenomenon in EFL class of vocational college. In order to make teaching and learning promote and enhance each other, according to previous research findings, this paper do a fur?ther study about the teachers' use of code switching in the vocational college English intensive reading classes in China.

Effect Evaluation of CBL Combined with Rain Classroom Teaching Method in Medical Statistics

Objective: To explore the application effect of CBL combined with rain classroom teaching method in medical statistics courses. Methods: The undergraduate students of medical imaging technology in 2019 and 2020 in a university were selected as the research objects.

Conclusion: The CBL combined with rain classroom teaching method can improve the teaching effectiveness of medical statistics courses.

The Code-Switching Dimension of Guided Fantasies in Young Learner L2 Classroom

The paper reports on a study of young L2 （second language） English learners＇ dual code use as activated through a series of specially designed guided fantasies. The original concept of guided fantasies as a monolingually organised relaxation technique was extended to the area of bilingual reception and production. The goal was to examine the relationship between child imaginative faculty and a tendency to transfer understandings across the L1 （first language） and L2. The research consisted in exposing a class of I 0 nine-year-old children to eight guided fantasies expected to playfully attract their conscious attention to language properties and enable them to profit from L1 knowledge in L2 learning. The data were collected through the heuristically oriented qualitative study drawing on participant observation accompanied by field notes and recordings of student behaviours. The findings highlighted guided fantasies in their redefined form as a useful tool for encouraging young learners to rely on L 1 competence in making sense of L2 underlying principles.

The Application of“Problem-Based Learning+Flipped Classroom”Teaching Model in Bilingual Education

This study focuses on the application of the“PBL(problem-based learning)+Flipped Classroom”teaching model in bilingual education,aiming to explore its potential to enhance the quality and effectiveness of bilingual teaching.PBL emphasizes learning through the resolution of real-world problems,while the Flipped Classroom advocates that students acquire basic knowledge through self-study before class,dedicating class time to in-depth discussions and practical activities.The integration of these two teaching models in bilingual education aims to stimulate students’interest in learning,improve their autonomous learning abilities,enhance critical thinking,and foster cross-cultural communication skills.Through literature review,case analysis,and empirical research,this study first examines the current applications and challenges of PBL and the Flipped Classroom in bilingual education.Subsequently,it elaborates on the specific implementation steps of the“PBL+Flipped Classroom”teaching model in bilingual education,including problem design,preview material provision,cooperative learning,classroom activities,and language support.A comparative experiment is then conducted to analyze the impact of this teaching model on students’learning motivation,academic performance,and cross-cultural communication skills.The results indicate that the“PBL+Flipped Classroom”teaching model significantly improves students’learning motivation and participation,enhances academic performance,and effectively boosts their cross-cultural communication skills.Furthermore,this model aids in cultivating students’autonomous learning abilities and critical thinking,providing an innovative and effective approach to bilingual education.This study offers new ideas and insights for the field of bilingual education,which is of great significance for promoting the innovation and development of bilingual teaching models.
