Abstract

Based on the learning characteristics of English majors in independent colleges and focusing on the technical advantages of the online environment, this study systematically explores effective teaching models for English listening courses through the research path of theoretical exploration, model construction, empirical testing, and optimization and promotion. It aims to break through the bottlenecks of traditional teaching, enhance students’ initiative and effectiveness in listening and learning, and provide replicable and promotable practical experience for the digital reform of English courses in independent colleges.
