Situational Teaching of College English from the Perspective of Constructivism

Abstract

From the perspective of constructivism, the concept of situational teaching of College English has changed significantly. It emphasizes student-centered and guides students to use the accumulated knowledge to actively construct an understanding of English knowledge. Teachers create teaching situations that are consistent with the actual situation by combining online and offline methods, such as simulating workplace exchanges and foreign tourism scenes, to stimulate students’ interest and participation in learning. Situational teaching mode can better stimulate students’ interest in learning, improve students’ autonomous learning ability, students’ autonomous exploration, cooperation, and communication in the situation, improve their language useability and communicative ability, help to cultivate their innovative thinking, and create a good atmosphere for better mastering college English knowledge and skills.
