ABSTRACT

Establishing an English-language course system for building construction is a major requirement for the training of international students majoring in civil engineering under the background of the “Belt and Road Initiative” The paper analyzes the problems existing in the teaching of international students and then proposes suggestions for the construction of an English course system of building construction from the aspects of teaching mode, teaching plan, and teaching content. By constructing a flipped classroom teaching model, adapting to the characteristics of international students, and improving the enthusiasm of learning; Given the large differences in knowledge acceptance ability and learning intention concentration among international students, the teaching plan, teaching content, and methods should be adjusted so that international students can learn more specifically and accept knowledge more easily. Through self-editing lecture notes and highlighting key points, students can have a clearer understanding of the teaching content.
