Abstract

Embodied cognition holds the view that human beings’ cognition is fundamentally grounded in the body and external environment. In this paper, we summaries the problems in current higher vocational college English teaching and learning, analyzes the relation between embodied cognition theory and higher vocational English teaching and learning, and explores the embodied cognition strategy in teaching, attempting to help us understand what embodied cognition is in foreign language teaching and learning at a theoretical level and improve students’ English application ability at a practical level.
