AI-Empowered POA Reform in Foreign Language Teaching: An Innovative Exploration of Shifting towards Spontaneous Communicative Competence
This paper explores the adjustment of the Production-Oriented Approach (POA) in the AI era, shifting the focus of classroom teaching from the cultivation of non-immediate communication skills to Spontaneous Communicative Competence. The paper first reviews the development of POA and analyzes its achievements and limitations in cultivating non-immediate communication skills. It then discusses the necessity, feasibility, and innovation of integrating AI technology to facilitate this shift, proposing an AI-empowered blended teaching model. Finally, through a specific teaching case, the paper demonstrates the application steps of this model in cultivating Spontaneous Communicative Competence. The study shows that the AI-empowered blended teaching model can effectively facilitate the shift in POA classroom teaching to focus on Spontaneous Communicative Competence, offering new ideas and methods for foreign language teaching reform.
