Abstract

Production-oriented approach (POA) is a foreign language teaching theory with Chinese characteristics created by Professor Qiufang Wen. Since its establishment, it has received eager attention from foreign language experts and teachers. This research explores the management of English training curriculum based on the POA teaching concept through teaching practice, determines specific English training projects, and constructs an English training teaching process oriented by “drive-facilitate-evaluate.” A ten-week teaching experiment was conducted with 225 students from Grade Two of English major in Zhengzhou University of Industrial Technology, an applied undergraduate university in China. The teaching design, teaching plan and teaching process based on POA were demonstrated. Experiments show that the management of English training curriculum based on POA teaching concepts can help improve students’ comprehensive English language application ability and creative thinking ability.
