The Role of Recitation in the Process of English Learning for College Art Students

Recitation-the traditional teaching method should be taken seriously again in English teaching. This is a survey report on the role of recitation in college art students' English learning. The research questions are: (1) Do you think recitation is useful for improving English? (2) Which recitation materials do you prefer to focus on, words, sentences, or articles? (3) Have your English teacher ever required for recitation and regular recitation? (4) Where did your recitation materials come? (5) What is the English result of the last final exam? According to the results of the survey, we come to the following conclusions: (1) College art students believe that recitation plays a positive role in improving their English level. (2) College art students think that recitation should be based on the text content while adding some extra-curricular materials to expand the scope of knowledge. (3) Recitation is a matter within students' duties, but teachers should regularly check the students' recitation, which will promote their learning.
