文摘This paper is about a reflective practice happened in the author' s College English teaching.Since 2005,a 5-minute oral-presentation was required for all the students in turn,in order to raise opportunities for them to practice oral English.But the students' responses were always disappointing since they only took the task as a burden.After the teacher lift the limits on presentation time,form,sequence,partner,etc.,better learning outcomes were achieved.When reflecting on this change,Biggs'3P Models of "constructive alignment" is taken into account.Any teaching and learning activity (TLA) cannot put the students' and the teacher' s presage aside since the students' ability,interests,motivation as well as the teacher' s objective,assessment approach and so on are co-determinants of a successful TLA.Further suggestions are given based on this reflection at the end of the paper.
