Transformation of English Education in the Digital Era: A New Paradigm for Holistic Development

Abstract

This paper explores the transformation of college English education in the digital era, proposing a new paradigm for holistic development. Information technology is driving educational reform, and government policies are facilitating its modernization and digitalization. College English education must evolve to cultivate students' practical application abilities, as current teaching models have limitations. The new paradigm for holistic development emphasizes the comprehensive cultivation of student abilities, including the integration of interdisciplinary knowledge as a core element. The transformation requires top-level policy guidance, needs analysis, curriculum design innovation, teaching model innovation, practical-focused instructional design, addressing implementation challenges, and innovative assessment methods. These initiatives can drive the transformation of English education, foster the development of well-rounded talents, modernize education, and lay the foundation for national progress.
