Research on the Application of the BOPPPS Teaching Model in Oral English Courses for Early Childhood Education Majors in Vocational Colleges

Abstract

With the increasing attention of the public to children’s English, it has become an important trend for vocational colleges to cultivate qualified bilingual teachers in early childhood education majors. Oral English ability is one of the essential core qualities of bilingual teachers, which plays a key role in the process of children’s English enlightenment. However, there are still some issues in the cultivation of English speaking abilities for students majoring in early childhood education in vocational colleges, such as inadequate professional skills training and low student engagement. BOPPPS teaching model puts students in the central position and encourages active participation of students in classroom activities to improve the learning quality of students. In response to these issues, this study applies the BOPPPS teaching model to oral English courses for early childhood education majors in vocational colleges, aiming to consolidate students’ language foundation, and explore a classroom teaching model that can improve students’ classroom participation, learning interest, and oral English ability.
