With 18961903 Dewey Chicago experimental courses in school activities the United States began to criticize the traditional courses. Instead of it are the outofclass educational activities. These activity courses are based on the pragmatism, lasted more than 50 years in American schools, and their affects are profound and widespread. Researches in ChinaIn our country, no matter what stage, these courses have different names, for example, outofclass activities, the second classroom, class activities, integrated social practice and so on. The process of changes is closely related to our theoretical study courses. In history, the development of activity courses is closely related the progress and reform and guiding rules of the government.3. Presentation of the English Teaching The Drawbacks of Traditional Teaching MethodsReviewing the traditional English teaching method, in the past decades we have indeed made the very big progress. But with social progress and development, its shortings are also increasingly revealed.First, because the Chinese test system is imperfect, the traditional English teaching method is just an examinationoriented education model. In this teaching, evaluation of English level is to see the scores. This causes many students to get a high score, but they can not municate with people using English. Secondly, in the traditional English teaching, teacher is the leader, takes the most important part in the classroom. The teacher stands on the platform proposing the questions, analyzing and explaining them, grasping the entire teaching process. And the student is just passive audience, understands the content passively, and records the massive notes. Such teaching method does not have interaction。 major character and employment need, make sure student39。 requiring the students to participate in the meaningful munication in the way of learning mother tongue, not only displaying the grammar or glossary knowledge. In addition, the design of learning tasks should provide clear and real language information, so that students can study English in a natural, authentic context, master the language applied. Outofclass activities should be looked as the same as the activities in the real life. We must create an environment similar to real society。s spoken English in the outofclass activity bees one effective study method gradually. With a long history, it is more widely respected in our modern time. But there are still a lot of people who do not understand the true meaning of it, so they can not apply it fully in the actual teaching and learning. In order to provide some solution for the problems existing in the college students’ outofclass learning, an outofclass English learning center is designed to provide learners with strategy training.In short, the theory and practice have proved that the outofclass English activities can stimulate the curiosity and interest in study, training students’ language skills, thinking ability, the ability to innovate, and autonomous selflearning ability, as well as munication and cooperation capacity.Bibliography[1] A.
