Applied Information Technology in Countermeasure Research on "Demotivation" of Non-English Majors with English Learning Difficulties in Private Universities

Abstract:

This paper explains and demonstrates how to throw away “demotivation” of non-English majors with English learning difficulties. Those learners usually attend English classes with little or no motivation. Teachers need to use proper teaching contents and strategies to motivate them. With restricted class hours, applied information technology plays a very important role in their English learning goals’ setting up and maintenance and in evaluation and in the process of interation.
