Abstract

This study addresses the challenge of "disconnection between skill training and ideological-political education" in Audio-Visual-Oral English courses at applied universities. Using a quasi-experimental design with 108 students (53 in the experimental group, 55 in the control group), it constructs a trin-ity curriculum model of "skill contextualization, local ideological grounding, and technology-enabled teaching." The model integrates a three-tiered skill training framework (phonetic discrimination, information capture, meaning construction) with a dual-track "skills-ideology" design, incorporating local cases (e.g., Zhejiang’s "Five Water Cohabitation") into multi-modal train-ing via the BOPPPS blended learning model. Teaching experiments show significant improvements in students’ digital listening accuracy and cul-tural identification, validated by quantitative data (independent sample t-test, p<0.01) and qualitative interviews. The research provides a replica-ble blended teaching pathway for "skills-ideology synergy" in foreign lan-guage courses at applied universities, enhanced by AI-generated local re-sources and cross-disciplinary lesson planning.
