Features: To promote the reform of college English teaching, we have compiled a large-scale survey report and some excellent sub-project conclusion reports into this book. The book is divided into two parts: the first part is macro-level research, consisting of seven chapters that cover key issues such as the necessity of college English teaching reform, the basic qualities of college English teachers, the current state of teaching and research, the current situation of teaching reform, textbook development, and teaching evaluation concepts. The second part is micro-level research, with three chapters. The first chapter of the second part explores the learning strategies, learning styles, and motivational structures of college English learners; the second chapter of the second part mainly studies the learning status of college English learners; the third chapter of the second part conducts a survey and analysis of teachers, teaching, and teaching evaluation. This project involved many participants, had a wide survey scope, and addressed numerous research questions, making it the largest-scale research project on college English teaching reform in China so far. Its findings hold significant practical value. We hope this outcome can provide educational authorities with decision-making references and offer useful information to English teachers nationwide, thereby promoting the reform of college English teaching.
