Abstract

In order to solve the pain point problems in teaching, the teaching team of Oral English Course has carried out a hybrid teaching reform and developed a provincial-level first-class online course. The course content was reconstructed and a number of integrated online and offline course resources have been developed. Adhering to the educational philosophy of “student-centered and outcome-oriented”, the course team optimized the BOPPPS teaching design model and established a hybrid teaching mode for Oral English Course that progressively integrates online and offline activities that organically integrates the teaching objectives of “knowledge, ability, and quality”. Through the teaching reform, the interactivity of classroom instruction, the expansiveness of extracurricular learning, and the autonomy of online learning are organically integrated. By utilizing an interactive online teaching platform, the breadth, depth, difficulty, and challenge of learning are scientifically enhanced.
