Abstract

Computer assisted teaching (CAT) has been widely used in College English Teaching (CET) in China, while whether CAT is conducive to its classroom climate finds few studies. Based on the data obtained from interviews and focused description, this paper attempts to evaluate the classroom climate in College English Teaching with CAT. The main findings are: 1) Teachers’ perceptions of a good classroom climate with CAT are different from that of the students’; 2) classroom climate indicators show that the intellectual aspect of the classroom climate is positive, while the emotional and physical aspects are not very satisfying. Suggestions for language teachers on how CAT can help to build and maintain an effective classroom climate beneficial to students’ learning and growing are offered in the last part.
