Theoretical FrameworkAs it is the first part of the paper, some theories that assist the application of multimedia in foreign langu

24、age teaching will be put forward to support the thesis statement. They are the Theories of the National English Curriculum Standards (The Ministry of Education, 2020) and theories of CAI.

25、sh Curriculum Standards for Nine years Compulsory Education and they provide theoretical support for multimedia application. These principles are different from the traditional syllabus in many parts. The principle of quality-oriented educationThe basic aim of the National English Curriculum Standar

26、ds is to educate all students, and emphasis quality-oriented education. The new standards “take care of students affective needs as well as other needs” (Wang Qiang, 2006:42-43). The application of multimedia can stimulate their interests in learning, help them have an audio-visual of the teaching c

27、ontents, and it can reduce the difficulty of learning. That can help students experience the sense of knowing and they can gain self-confidence in this process. Therefore, the objective to develop students comprehensive ability in using English language can reach easily. The great variety sources of

28、 multimedia such as pictures, sounds, and images can cultivate students cultural sense, develop their practical skills, and cultivate their creative spirit. The principle of student-centered modelThe National English Curriculum Standards changed the teacher-centered teaching model to student-centere

29、d model. The change of the role in learning and teaching shows the social trend of respecting students and their differences. When teachers use multimedia in teaching, they not only just use words, texts and blackboard to teach knowledge, but also use different sources to arouse students interests.

Students have more opportunities to express themselves by using the target language they are learning when teachers using multimedia in class. Using multimedia in class suits to the pr

Multimedia courseware can combine different con

The application of multimedia by teachers can provide rich and interesting resources that are practical, lively, newly to students. In the learning process, students have more opportunities to take part in activities and use the target language they are learning.
