Abstract

At present, the application of multimedia technology in English listening teaching in higher vocational colleges (HVC) has attracted much attention. This article aims to explore the innovative application of multimedia technology in English listening teaching in HVC and its influencing factors. By combing the theories of multimedia technology and higher vocational English listening teaching, this article analyzes its innovative application strategies in the integration of instructional resources, the reform of instructional mode and the creation of teaching environment. With the help of several targeted tables, the factors affecting the application effect are analyzed from three aspects: teachers, students and teaching management. It is found that although multimedia technology brings new opportunities to English listening teaching in HVC, it is restricted by many factors. Teachers' multimedia application ability, teaching design level, students' learning attitude and autonomous learning ability, and school multimedia facilities and teaching platform management all affect the instructional effect. Based on this, this article puts forward that teachers' ability should be improved, students' awareness of autonomous learning should be cultivated, and teaching management should be improved, so as to give full play to the advantages of multimedia technology in English listening teaching in HVC and improve teaching quality.
