Abstract

This paper investigates the application of the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) concept in reforming computer professional English instruction. The research is student-output oriented, with the aim of improving students' professional English proficiency by clarifying course objectives and learning outcomes, carefully selecting teaching content and resources, and designing a variety of teaching activities and methods. At the course design level, it delineates the professional English skills that students should acquire and establishes corresponding evaluation standards. At the course implementation level, through case analysis, project practice, and other activities, it fosters students' interest in learning, enhances their practical abilities, integrates ideological and political education into the course, and promotes students' comprehensive development. At the course evaluation level, a diversified evaluation system is established, combining formative and summative evaluations, with a focus on students' self-reflection and continuous improvement. Furthermore, this paper analyzes how to stimulate students' intrinsic learning motivation under the OBE educational concept and discusses the role transformation of teachers as emotional laborers. The ultimate goal is to optimize the computer professional English curriculum system through these reform practices, providing valuable references for the cultivation of IT talents in applied universities.
