A Critical Examination of China's 2007 College English Curriculum Requirements: A Lifelong Learning Perspective

Abstract Details

2015, Master of Arts, University of Akron, Educational Foundations-Social/Philosophical Foundations of Education.
As a trend in education, lifelong learning is playing an increasingly important role in China’s education system. The integration between lifelong learning and College English education is a necessity. It is a response to the demand for high-quality College English education, and also has great significance for the actual realization of lifelong learning in China’s school education. This study conducted a critical examination of the integration from a policy level. The study result indicates that the current guideline document for College English education (the 2007 College English Curriculum Requirements) reflects the key ideas of lifelong learning. Although there is room for further improvement, we can still trust that the 2007 College English Curriculum Requirements would provide great policy support for the realization of lifelong learning ideas in College English classrooms. Due to limited resources, this study has its limitation. But I hope it could be a modest spur to induce more valuable contributions to this issue.
