As a basic compulsory course, public university English has the characteristics of long hours, large span and wide coverage. It is also a course that most directly faces the diversification of current social thoughts. This course is rich in the exchange and collision of Chinese and Western politics, cultures, and ideas, which plays an important role in improving students’ ability to judge the right and wrong of Western cultural values under the background of Chinese and Western cultural conflicts. It is of great and practical significance to carry out “moral education” in public English course, but there exist various problems of the ideological and political education in this course. Based on project teaching mode, exploring the ideological and political elements in the textbooks and designing a series of project tasks that match with the English communication scenes, “moral education” of university public English course helps students improve their language competence and interdisciplinary knowledge skills, and their ability to interpret Chinese culture is also enhanced, which is the realization of the goal of strengthening moral instruction and cultivating young university students through ideological and political education in English Course.
