- Abstract
College English Teaching and Learning Reform aims to cultivate students’ comprehensive abilities, especially in listening and speaking. With the dramatic development of computer, global networks and information technology, foreign language teaching under interactive network platform has gradually become the trend of college English teaching. An integrated part of College English Teaching and Learning Reforms is to remold the existing unitary teacher-centered pattern by introducing new teaching mode with the help of network technology. Based on the theory of constructivism and combined with experiences and theoretical analysis, college English teacher’s roles in the new teaching mode are making an all-around change. Under Interactive Network Platform, college students are encouraged to become the center of the classroom, while college English teachers should serve as designers of the curriculum, constitutors of the syllabus, suppliers of teaching materials, planners of specific teaching tasks, and managers, organizers, active assistants, guiders and co-operators in the process of teaching. Besides, teachers are required to be researchers and educators. The thesis also analyzes the responsibilities of teachers under Interactive Network Platform, and makes some suggestions on what teachers should do to meet the needs of the students under Interactive Network Platform.
