The “production-oriented approach” or POA theory believes that foreign language teaching should embrace such focus as “learning-centered”, “learning and use integration” and “key capabilities cultivation”. Besides, foreign language teaching should be designed as a process that starts with production and ends with production. In view of the merits of network resources and platforms in blended teaching mode as well as teaching process of “driving, facilitating, and evaluating” in POA, this paper explores the combination of POA and blended teaching to research on the feasibility and effectiveness of applying it to the teaching of college English writing in private undergraduate colleges. By analyzing the relevant research theoretical basis and research status, the author further elaborates on the specific implementation process of applying POA based on blended teaching in the college English writing teaching of private undergraduate colleges from the aspects of research significance research subjects, research methods, research content and data analysis. In terms of research content, the author specifically expounds the procedures from such detailed parts as before-class stage: production drive + online autonomous learning, in-class stage: input facilitating + offline classroom teaching, after-class stage: evaluation to promote learning + online correction and classroom display. This paper is expected to promote students’ writing interests and proficiency so as to provide a valuable reference for the reform of college English writing teaching methods.

The paper presents methodological foundations of conducting mediation in the process of teaching foreign languages to students that do not specialize in translation. Outcomes of the research are the following: principles of the concept of conducting mediation described in the Companion Volume to Common European Framework of Reference for Languages CEFR are analyzed and principles applicable for teaching mediation to students are outlined; typical communicative situations in which mediation is carried out are analyzed; the practical orientation of the mediation process in foreign language teaching is explained; algorithms for creating mediation tasks are developed; possibilities of optimization of educational process through the integration of mediation tasks are considered; examples of tasks for execution of mediation are suggested. It is concluded that in light of the significance of functions that mediation serves in the nowadays society, it is necessary to take into account the problem of incorporating teaching of meditation into the process of foreign languages teaching. Advanced mediation concept, which is presented in the Companion Volume to Common European Framework of Reference for Languages CEFR, provides theoretical principles for the development of methodologies for teaching mediation. Social functions of language use in mediation lay the foundations of these methodologies. Peculiarities of mediation tasks are the following: tasks are based on the educational goal that is formulated on the basis of illustrative scales with competencies for mediation that are provided in the Companion Volume to CEFR, tasks have natural for students communicative situation, which indicates for whom and with what purpose mediation is carried out. Provided that these requirements are met, mediation tasks fully and completely correspond to the activity-oriented approach in foreign language teaching and help to optimize educational process.

In order to overcome the disadvantages of "separation of learning and using" in foreign language teaching in China, Professor Wen Qiufang and her team have put forward their theoretical and practical achievements of POA (Production-oriented Approach) after more than ten years of research and exploration. The Production-oriented Approach conforms to the reality of foreign language teaching in China in the aspects of teaching concepts, teaching hypothesis, and teaching process jumps out of the dilemma of needs analysis and passes through the theory of second language acquisition and the practice of foreign language teaching. It has profound theoretical and practical guiding significance for language teaching at colleges and universities in China. This paper, based on the introduction of POA theory and the current ESP teaching research achievements in China, combining with the practice of English ESP teaching for majors of textile engineering at Tianjin Polytechnic University, attempts to construct a set of feasible ESP teaching mode for the major of textile engineering based on POA (Production-oriented Approach).

AbstractMore than a decade has passed since Wen Qiufang (2007) first proposed that foreign language teaching could benefit from output-driven practices in the classroom. Her original ideas were reformulated and further elaborated in the Production-Oriented Approach (POA), which aims to deal with the input-output separation in foreign language teaching in Chinese universities and colleges to optimize students’ learning (Wen, 2015, 2016b). Integrating the strengths of Chinese traditional pedagogy and Western instructional approaches, this approach engages learners with production, merging the learning and use of language to enhance the efficiency of language teaching (Illes, 2018, p. 242) in a Chinese context.This introduction to the special issues includes three major sections. It starts out with an overview of what the POA system includes and how it works with a focus on its teaching procedures. The second section is about dialectical research (DR), a new research paradigm specifically designed for instructed second language acquisition (Wen, 2017b) with “dialectical materialism as its philosophical basis” (Wen, 2019, p. 385). Finally, seven papers collected in this issue are introduced. We hope that this special issue sets a research agenda towards a better understanding of the POA.

<p>Production-Oriented Approachwith Chinese characteristics is the latest feedback of foreign language teaching theory supporting classroom practice in recent years. Based on the practice of college English class, it shows students' basic attitude and evaluation results in cultivating their individual thinking ability, which can promote the continuous improvement of foreign language teaching theory. As college English teaching adopts the "Production-Oriented Approach", it can not only stimulate students' interest in learning English, but also cultivate students' ability of information analysis and processing, rational presentation of personal views, raising and solving problems and thinking quality of listening to others. Therefore, this paper studies the practical effect of using Production-Oriented Approach to cultivate students' key English learning abilities, so as to promote the overall improvement of students' English personality, quality and practical skills in English application.</p>

Some of the solutions employed in the field of teaching languages for special purposes have turned out to be useful also in the field of general didactics, e.g. the task-oriented approach. What is particularly valuable in the legacy of teaching languages for special purposes is its eclectic nature, which gives one the possibility to choose and combine the best-tested methods depending on the individual characteristics of every learner. Such an undogmatic approach and search for the best possible technique, which takes into account individual characteristics of each student, appears to be a particularly valuable and enriching one in the days of certain reluctance towards an overtly rigidly defined concept of communicative approach in foreign language teaching.
