A Study On Interactive Teaching Model In College Oral English

Based on theoretical and practical considerations, this thesis aims to illustrate the improvement of the interactive teaching model on college students'interest in English learning. Some guidelines on college students'interest activation are proposed, and some suggestions on the implementation of the interactive teaching model are listed. In the mean time, it aims at drawing people's attention to the significance of interest activation in English classrooms in colleges. It is hoped that the thesis might help to improve the students'English abilities.The thesis begins with an introduction of the general conditions of English classrooms in colleges, revealing the problems of language teaching, i.e. not only is the activity process in a single way, but also the activity form is monotonous. The outmoded teaching model has to assume great responsibility for this. In view of these problems, the purpose of the research is further presented.On the theoretical basis, the thesis provides a rather detailed review of the research findings on students'interest in English learning. It also summarizes the researches on the interactive teaching model, which is for long a cross-disciplinary issue in the field of psychology, pedagogy, and linguistics. In practice, evaluation of students'achievement is conducted by comparing the students'participation rate with Flanders'Interaction Analysis System in the traditional class and the interactive class; a questionnaire is designed to get a whole idea of the students'interest and attitude in English learning both before and after the experiment; two tests are used as the pretest and the posttest; and at last the results and the analysis are followed. The research tries to test the feasibility and effectiveness of stimulating college students'interest in English learning by the interactive teaching model.The data analysis and discussion shows that students have made great progress. However, some problems and challenges arising from the implementation are also found. Some strategic suggestions are proposed in order to improve the constructions of the interactive teaching model.The research goes deep into the observation of the interactive teaching model, which helps people penetrate classroom language behavior to understand the real state of the interactive teaching model and take a correct attitude towards interactive teaching.
