Abstract

With English the increasingly dominant language across the globe, it is of tremendous significance for college students to have a good mastery of oral English as an instrument in the workplace as well as other applied skills. This paper investigates the feasibility of incorporating PBL into college oral English courses through elaborating on its definition, characteristics and advantages. The author also takes one unit themed career from her oral English class as an instance to demonstrate how the real implementation of PBL overcomes the problems existing in the course and facilitates the learning activities of the students.
