ABSTRACT

College English course serves as the main way to expose media students to foreign cultures and ideologies, and also an important medium for them to understand the world. In college English teaching, it is necessary to effectively integrate moral education into the course. Teachers can seek changes actively by updating teaching concepts and methods, enhancing the abilities and literacy of media students as well as conducting in-depth research on course construction. Starting from the perspective of the supply side in education, teachers can promote the process of moral education in the English course based on the basic laws of teaching and the diverse needs of media students. Meanwhile, to meet the diverse needs of media students, the source supply of college English teaching can be optimized from the perspective of supply side reform. The article first explains the connotation and logical relationship between supply side reform and moral education in the college English course. In addition, it conducts the analysis of the diverse needs of college students in the new era. Finally, the implementation strategies of the supply side reform of the moral education are explored from the following three aspects: course system construction, school-based policy guidance, and main groups of moral education.
