Abstract: This paper analyzes the current state of learning and teaching for the “specialized English for chemistry majors” course from both students’ and teachers’ perspectives. Based on the BOPPPS (Bridge-in, Objective, Pre-assessment, Participatory Learning, Post-assessment, Summary) model, an online and offline mixed teaching mode is explored. This mode significantly stimulates students’ enthusiasm for learning, improves teaching quality and efficiency, and enhances students’ abilities in self-study, teamwork, expression, and summarization. It truly embodies the teaching philosophy of “students at the center, teachers as guides, and learning for practical application”. This teaching mode has not only achieved positive outcomes in the “specialized English for chemistry majors” course, but is also applicable to the teaching of other courses, demonstrating its general applicability.

Key words: BOPPPS model, Online and offline teaching, Blended teaching, Specialized English for chemistry majors
