Abstract

In view of the low efficiency of college students’ autonomous independent learning, this research was aimed at building the OBE-oriented college students’ blended English learning community in a smart environment. Its effectiveness is tested by a 12-week experiment of joint learning  for CET-4. The results showed that (1) in the process of joint learning for CET-4, the average score for each part and the total average score of the students in the experimental group have been continuously improved, (2) compared with the initial mock CET-4, in the final CET-4, the average score for listening, the average score for reading, the average score for writing and translation, the total average score and the pass rate of the students in the experimental group have been more significantly improved than those in the control group.
