In the digital era, higher education English classroom teaching faces both innovations and challenges

Abstract

Against the backdrop of deep integration of digital technology into higher education, English classrooms in universities face the dual challenges of structural reconstruction and transformation of teaching mechanisms. This study focuses on "Innovation and Challenges in University English Classroom Teaching in the Digital Era," emphasizing the impact of digital media intervention, reorganization of teaching elements, and spatiotemporal extension on the teaching ecosystem. It constructs innovative approaches from perspectives such as cognitive differences, intelligent feedback, and multimodal interaction. The article also identifies existing issues in current teaching practices, including insufficient teaching consistency, lagging adaptation of teacher capabilities, and imbalanced evaluation mechanisms, aiming to provide theoretical support and practical pathways for systematic optimization and intelligent upgrading of university English teaching.
