Implications of Task-based Teaching Approach for College English Teaching

摘要

Under the traditional mode of college English teaching, students are passive recipients of information in class, while teachers dominate the class most of time. Under such circumstances, grammar-translation approach and audio-lingual approach are mainly applied in teaching. However, the application of task-based teaching approach in college English teaching makes a big difference. The students are no longer the passive recipients of information but the active participants. The advantages of this approach are well embodied in various aspects of college English teaching, including reading, writing, listening and speaking.
