1. Research background

With China's participation in the international economy's deepening and development, China has occupied an increasingly important position in the international affairs and economic structure. More and more countries and international companies choose to cooperate with China, and English is more and more important as the main communication tool. Therefore, it puts higher requirements on the English ability of college students, especially the students' listening and speaking ability is extremely important, but the traditional English teaching mode pays attention to the theoretical knowledge of the students, and the cultivated college students have not adapted to the development and needs of the new market. At the same time, with the continuous improvement of Internet technology, the “Internet Plus” model has emerged in our lives. Fully combining the advantages of the Internet has greatly promoted the development of the industry. "Internet + Education" is also a new trend in the field of education. Carrying out reform and innovation of college English teaching with the help of the Internet is the inevitable way. In the context of information technology, the reform of college English teaching needs to change the traditional teaching mode and concept, and reposition the roles of teachers and students. In the traditional teaching mode, teachers are knowledge givers, guides and organizers of teaching. At the same time, they guide students to become the main body of the class, mobilize students' enthusiasm for learning and self-motivation, and cultivate students' comprehensive quality. In addition, traditional teaching content and resources should be introduced into the new media teaching mode, integrate and improve with network resources, and further improve the college English teaching system. The deep integration of Internet technology and education has become an inevitable path of education reform. Establish an information-based teaching environment, optimize the teaching mode, promote the reform process of college English teaching, improve the teaching level and quality of colleges and universities, and cultivate composite English talents to meet the needs of the times.

2. The current situation of college English teaching

The English major is generally composed of three parts, namely, language learning theory, foreign language teaching theory and foreign language teaching technology. The three aspects should be carried out on demand and at the same time fully developed (see Figure1). Although the current college English course is still one of the basic courses of the university, its position is not the "main curriculum" in high school. The importance of university students and teachers to this course has been seriously reduced. The teacher has changed from the original “knowledge giver” to the “leader” of the current class. The students have changed from the original passive learners to the self-learning preferences, and the learning channels have become diversified. Students have more channels and ways to access English resources and methods, increase the motivation of English learning, and have more opportunities to showcase their learning outcomes in the classroom. At the same time, the learning and lifestyle under the students also have an important impact on learning. You can use your after-class time to study with network resources., such as online courses, learning forums, and English learning software. You can also communicate with classmates and teachers in real time through chat software such as WeChat and QQ to improve the efficiency and quality of learning. The era of information technology is the era of “knowledge explosion”. Students can learn through various channels and methods, and learning becomes simpler and more convenient. However, the reality is that many college English teachers use traditional teaching methods and methods in the process of teaching. In the traditional teaching mode, teachers occupy the main position of the classroom, and pay too much attention to the test-taking education to judge the students' learning results in English, and ignore the importance of practical and applied English education. Specifically, there are the following problems.

2.1 Ignorance on application ability training

In the process of college English teaching, teachers pay too much attention to the ability of exam-oriented education. The focus is on the basic knowledge. All of the English test scores are the standard on the subject. And there is no targeted training and improvement on students' practical application ability. Such teaching goals and standards are no longer applicable to the needs of English talent in the new era. In the information technology environment, the standards for employing people in various industries are constantly upgrading. This requires students not only to master basic theoretical knowledge, but also to have a strong ability to comprehensively practice it, which puts higher expectations on students' English listening and speaking ability and practical ability. However, in the actual teaching process, the classroom mode mainly focuses on the study of grammar, words, and syntax, ignoring the cultivation of the actual operational ability of English (see Figure2). This leads to students being "high-scoring and low-energy", that is, they only have theoretical knowledge, but they cannot apply it to life and work, and they cannot adapt to the development needs of society and affect their competitiveness in future work.

2.2 Lack of innovation in curriculum

The college English courses are not new enough, and there are still some unreasonable phenomena in some places. For example, the proportion of theoretical courses is relatively large, and the number of practical courses is too small. This is also a problem in most colleges. In the classroom, teachers still use most of the practice time to require students to learn basic theoretical knowledge such as grammar, words, writing, reading, etc., ignoring the practical content of English listening and speaking ability, and the proportion of class hours is relatively low. Even if there is a listening and speaking ability, the training objectives are still biased. The focus is on the test skills of CET4 and CET6, which is not from the view of the practical application. This unreasonable curriculum does not pay enough attention to the cultivation of students' comprehensive English ability. The students are all of the type of "high scores and low energy", and they cannot apply the knowledge quickly and effectively to future work.

3. The Reform Strategy of College English Teaching under the Background of Information Technology

The application of information technology in the field of education can greatly improve the efficiency of teaching and the learning effect of students. Through the Internet, teachers can integrate more learning resources, and students can obtain more learning channels. In this way, the reform and innovation of college English teaching by means of information technology will achieve twice the result with half the effort. Information technology combined with English teaching mainly includes flipped classroom, MOOC, micro-lecture, and mixed teaching. The use of information technology means to carry out college English teaching reform mainly through the following ways.

3.1 Establish a correct concept of talent cultivation

The reform of college English teaching must first establish a correct goal of English talent training, aiming at improving students' comprehensive English ability. In the traditional English teaching curriculum, the teacher is the "director" of the whole classroom. The main task is to teach the basic theoretical knowledge and assign tasks to the students. It is the main purpose of the classroom. The students only passively accept the knowledge and complete the task assigned by the teacher. This model is an important reason for students to produce “dumb English”. Although many students have passed the CET-4, they still “can’t understand” and “do not speak” in the actual application process, which seriously affects students’ learning, initiative and enthusiasm. Therefore, college English teachers should change their training concepts, and improve students' comprehensive application ability as the primary goal. They should give classrooms to students, use information technology and methods to provide more learning resources and opportunities to learn and exercise listening and speaking skills for students. And they should provide opportunities to truly promote the reform and innovation of the English teaching model.

3.2 Enrich teaching methods and ways

Under the background of information technology, the reform of college English teaching mode requires the use of online teaching platform. Colleges and universities should introduce multimedia equipment, optimized multimedia technology, and English classroom assisted teaching. The multimedia teaching platform has many unique advantages over the traditional teaching mode. Teachers should actively learn these new teaching methods, and apply these teaching modes to teaching activities, enrich teaching methods, and promote the rapid development of teaching reform. At the same time, teachers must seize the opportunity, master the advantages of information technology, improve the teaching level and quality, not only can establish their own teaching advantages, but also promote the improvement of the overall teaching level and contribute to the teaching reform. The application of information technology can integrate many excellent teaching resources online and offline, give students more rich and diverse learning channels, stimulate students' enthusiasm and initiative, and improve students' learning efficiency.

3.3 Strengthen the cultivation of teachers

The rapid development of information technology also requires teachers to quickly learn and master new technologies, adapt to the requirements and changes of teaching in the new era, and establish the philosophy and goals of lifelong learning. Under the background of informationization, college English teaching reform requires teachers to have the ability to adapt to the situation, adapt to the new requirements of national teaching reform and development, adapt to the situation of the new university English system, and adapt to the needs of college English teaching ability in the multimedia environment. Therefore, college English teachers need to master certain information technology use methods, and can use various network resources and technologies to produce teaching courseware and resources, and contribute to the reform of college English teaching, thus promoting the development process of college English teaching reform. In addition, college English teachers should also actively update the teaching carrier. For example, teaching resources such as micro-lecture and network resources can be used to help college English teaching.

4. Conclusion

The in-depth development of information technology will inevitably promote the transformation of college English teaching mode and teaching concept. On the basis of the convenient use of information technology for the reform of college English teaching, it effectively compensates for the problems in traditional English teaching. In this process, universities are required to change traditional teaching concepts and training objectives, and to put students' comprehensive ability in the first place. Colleges and universities should fully utilize the power of information technology to continuously enrich teaching methods and methods. Teachers should actively exert their subjective and initiative to adapt to the requirements of teaching reform under the new situation. They should make great efforts to promote the reform of college English teaching, improve the quality of college English teaching and students' comprehensive quality of English.
