Research on the Ideological and Political Teaching Design of College English Courses Based on POA Theory
College English ideological-political teaching often faces a separation from language instruction. Based on POA, this paper proposes a teaching pathway driven by output, mediated by language, and centered on values. It demonstrates the inherent compatibility of POA’s “learning-application integration” with value education and introduces a “backward design, forward implementation” approach. Through case analysis, it shows how POA’s three stages facilitate natural integration. The research confirms that POA effectively addresses shallow or difficult integration, achieving coordinated development of language skills and value cultivation.
