- Abstract
In order to investigate oral English learning needs of students in a vocational medical college, 114 nursing majors were selected as research subjects. Through a questionnaire survey, classroom observation and semi-structured interview, students’ status quo, learning problems and needs of oral English learning in English specialty classes of nursing majors were examined. Using SPSS17.0 as the research tool, 7 factors were summarized and used to analyze students’ opinions, attitudes and conceptions in regard to oral English learning habits, problems, strategies, aims, testing needs, applying ability, course evaluation and feedback. Based on the findings, mending measures and feasible suggestions were drawn from 3 dimensions, i.e. school, teacher and students. Finally, this article discussed how to balance teaching and learning in college oral English course, such as taking advantage of online-and-offline combined model to improve students’ oral English learning efficiency and communicative competence. Accordingly, “double qualified” vocational and technical talents who master both professional skills and English proficiency can be cultivated for the nation and society.
