Abstract

This paper explores the integration of Ideological and Political Education (IPE) into English teaching methodology as a strategy for sustainable development in English learning among Chinese college students. It tries to replace the conventional teacher-centered, test-oriented methodology with student-centered, interest-oriented, and culturally-integrated approach, using English Teaching Methodology course as a case study to investigate how the integration of IPE into English teaching methodology can bolster autonomous learning and thus, sustainable development of English language learning among Chinese university students. It inspires students with patriotic feelings and the mission of spreading Chinese culture in English, ultimately fostering a more engaging and continuous learning environment for students.
