Smart Platforms and Interactive Design: Enhancing College English Listening and Speaking Educational Management via a Three-Stage Framework

Zhou Xinyan(Xi'an Eurasia University)

Abstract

Traditional college English listening and speaking courses for non-English majors suffer from low student engagement and inefficient instructional management against the backdrop of higher education's digital transformation. Based on a mixed-methods case study of 109 undergraduate students at a Chinese institution, this study investigates how to optimize course management through an integration of interactive design and smart teaching platforms from the perspective of educational management. The findings show that while this integrated model improves the effectiveness of classroom monitoring and individualized feedback, it also significantly boosts students' freewill and willingness to engage in cross-cultural communication. Furthermore, a reproducible three-stage management framework—pre-class resource allocation, in-class interactive monitoring, and post-class individualized feedback—is proposed, providing useful insights for the digital modernization of college English educational management in institutions of higher learning.
