ABSTRACT

Objective: To discuss the effects on the cultivation of college students' humanistic qualities and English language abilities of "sharing" teaching activities applied in college English teaching. Methods: In routine college English teaching, the good news and events with positive energy in students' life are shared before textbook study. After one year of teaching practice, a questionnaire survey was conducted on college students, and SPSS 21.0 statistical software package was used for data analysis. Results: The statistical analysis showed that the scores of college students' acceptance of "sharing" teaching activities were 4.13±0.865. The students thought that the score for improving their oral English ability was 4.27±0.866, the score of listening comprehension ability was 4.53±0.630, the score for improving English learning interest was 4.48±0.604, the score for reducing English learning anxiety was 4.48±0.681, while self-confidence score was 4.35±0.663, self-optimism score was 4.44±0.602, and self-help qualities scored 4.28±0728. Conclusion: The statistical results reflect that most college students like “sharing” teaching activities and believe that it can greatly improve college students’ interest in English learning, improve their oral English and their English listening ability, reduce their learning anxiety in the English classroom, and cultivate their positive and optimistic attitude towards life and the quality of mutual support, so that students become more confident.
