Research on the Reform and Innovation Strategies of College English Teaching from the Perspective of Core Competencies

The rapid development of artificial intelligence technology and the in-depth advancement of the concept of core competencies jointly constitute the dual driving force for the reform of college English teaching. Based on the four dimensions of language competence, thinking quality, cultural awareness, and learning ability of core competencies, this study systematically examines the current realistic difficulties faced by college English teaching and analyzes the empowerment mechanism and practical paths of artificial intelligence technology in English teaching. The research shows that deep learning and natural language processing technologies provide technical guarantees for the precise training of language competence, intelligent learning platforms make it possible to construct personalized learning paths, and multi-modal teaching environments expand the temporal and spatial boundaries and experiential dimensions of language learning. The research proposes innovation strategies oriented by core competencies: realizing the in-depth exploration of curriculum ideological and political elements through the integration and reconstruction of intelligent teaching resources, providing differentiated learning support services relying on the design of a tiered teaching system, constructing a human-machine collaborative teaching model to promote the transformation of teacher roles, and establishing a multi-dimensional dynamic evaluation system to achieve accurate monitoring of the entire learning process. The research aims to promote the organic integration of technology empowerment and competency cultivation, and to provide theoretical reference and practical paths for the high-quality development of college English teaching in the intelligent era.
