The new
teaching model of flipping classrooms has been widely used in business English
negotiation talents in recent years. With the valuable time in the classroom,
students can concentrate more on active project-based learning, jointly study
and solve the challenges of localization or globalization and other real world
problems, thus gaining a deeper understanding. Teachers no longer occupy
classroom time to teach information, which requires students to complete
autonomous learning before class. They can watch video lectures, listen to
podcasts, read enhanced e-books, and discuss with other students on the
Internet, and access the required materials at any time. Teachers can also have
more time to communicate with everyone. This model subverts the traditional
teaching mode and is loved by teachers and students. Through the application of flipped classroom in business
English negotiation course teaching, this paper draws a conclusion that
flipped classroom is very helpful to the smooth development of business English
negotiation classroom activities and to the improvement of learners’ autonomous
learning ability and business negotiation skills in the process of training
business English negotiation talents.
