A Design of CBI-Embedded Course System in College English Teaching: A Case Study of Economics Major

摘要

The ultimate goal of College English teaching is to produce bilinguals with specialized knowledge in technical, scientific and other specialty related fields, who can use English to communicate with native speakers, especially specialists and professionals. However, the present foundation stage curricula especially in most of the ordinary colleges and universities in which knowledge of the English language dominates the main role can hardly prepare students for the demanding and difficult bilingual education. In this paper endeavors are made to provide a way to solve the problem mentioned above by offering an case study of Economics Major in an ordinary university. This paper studies how CBI can be embedded into the existing College English course systems and how CBI can be enacted in a language classroom by giving solutions to problems CBI has encountered.
