Study on the Teaching Mode of Scientific Foreign Language Course under MOOC Background

MOOCs might be exciting in a lot of ways, and the ability of MOOCs to connect experienced professionals with motivated learners is a potent pedagogical combination. It seems obvious that the instruction of English for special purposes is not soundly developed in China since English for general purposes is still grabbing the limelight in foreign language education. It's suggested that three main areas in the teaching mode of scientific foreign language course be considered and stressed under MOOC Background, i.e. filming high quality video lectures, moving towards flipped classroom, and enhancing student-centered learning opportunities, so as to yield better learning outcomes in scientific foreign language learning. It's hoped that this thesis provides a useful reference for future English language education among college students.
