Abstract

CoursebookS have always been one of the basis and content-providers in teaching. Advanced English (hereinafter AE) teaching stands a significant stage in that it guides students from the focus on language forms to the deepening of subject matters in language learning, thus the evaluation of the coursebook is of great significance. This study explored the users’ satisfaction towards CECL4 based on needs analysis through questionnaires and interviews. 137 students and 3 teachers from an Independent College in Southwestern China were randomly selected as the subjects. The results revealed that both teachers and students generally thought that CECL4 was slightly above average as an AE coursebook. Suggestions were made by both teachers and students, referring that more topics of value orientation and classics appreciation should be strengthened in the coursebook. The result is of great significance for the coursebook compilation for users at Independent Colleges.
