Abstract

How to innovate teaching models so as to improve the quality of teaching has already been one of the hottest topic of a new-round teaching reform in China nowadays. Based on the previous research findings, this thesis, by using the existing platform of campus network, created a FCM (Flipped Classroom) Model for English-major courses from the perspective of MOOC, which was then applied successfully to classroom teaching of English course for English majors of a Chinese university. The results indicated that compared with traditional teaching model, the FCM had a more obviously positive effect on motivating interest and correcting attitude of Chinese students’ learning, and was more able to effectively promote English proficiency and learning autonomy of Chinese students.
