Higher education in China, English for academic purposes, Morality cultivation.

This study explores the integration of ideological and political education into English for Academic Purposes (EAP) courses at a Chinese university. It addresses challenges posed by the Western-centric focus of EAP and the issue of “Chinese cultural aphasia”. Using a case study, the research proposes task-driven teaching models, such as Team-Based Learning (TBL), to foster active student engagement and moral cultivation. The study highlights the need for developing resource packages that incorporate Chinese cultural elements, aiming to cultivate globally-minded students with a strong sense of national identity and social responsibility.
