Literature Review on Teaching Strategies and Motivation of English Teachers in Higher Vocational Colleges in China
Abstract
Within the educational setting of Chinese society, the study of teaching strategies holds a prominent position, capturing considerable scholarly interest, particularly in the setting of higher vocational education. Despite the attention devoted to teaching strategies, there exists a noticeable gap in understanding the motivation of teachers to employ these strategies and the factors influencing their choices, especially within the context of higher vocational education. Furthermore, insufficient research has been conducted on the distinctive characteristics of higher vocational education students and the backgrounds of teachers in higher vocational colleges. This paper aims to address these gaps by conducting a thorough review of existing literature on English teachers’ teaching motivation and the influencing factors in higher vocational colleges. Through the synthesis of relevant literature, the study seeks to shed light on the research deficiencies and the significance of exploring the motivation behind teaching strategies in higher vocational education settings. By bridging these gaps, the research contributes valuable insights that can inform educational practices and policy development in the dynamic landscape of higher vocational education in China. The outcomes of this study hold the potential to reshape educational paradigms and enhance the effectiveness of pedagogical approaches in higher vocational institutions, fostering a more enriching learning environment for both educators and students alike.
