The Application of Corpus Data-driven Learning Model in College English Language Teaching in China

Abstract

In recent decades, corpus linguistics has developed rapidly, and corpus data-driven learning has provided new ideas for English language teaching research and practice. The concept of data-driven learning highlights the advantages of corpus in assisting language teaching and cultivating students’ autonomous learning ability, research ability, and ability to use modern information technology. China’s college language English teaching is still confined to the traditional teaching model, and corpora are rarely used for teaching innovation. Starting from the concept of corpus and data-driven learning and the actual teaching needs, this paper briefly introduces the necessity of implementing this learning concept in college English language teaching of vocabulary, grammar, translation and writing, in order to promote corpus-assisted English language learning in college English classrooms and improve the advanced and innovative nature of Chinese college English language teaching.
