Innovative Practice in the Teaching of College Japanese Based on the Output-Oriented Approach

Abstract

This paper examines a restructured approach to teaching "College Japanese" in applied undergraduate institutions, designed to align with contemporary demands for interdisciplinary education and practical language application. Grounded in the Production-Oriented Approach (POA), the course integrates local cultural resources such as Wuyi Mountain’s heritage and professional knowledge from various fields to construct a student-centered, output-oriented teaching model. Innovations in content design, teaching methods, learning environments, and evaluation systems create a dynamic framework that addresses deficiencies in traditional language education. The findings demonstrate significant improvements in students' linguistic proficiency, interdisciplinary competence, and cultural engagement. These results suggest that this approach offers a replicable model for foreign language education reform in applied institutions worldwide.
