Abstract

This paper explores the critical role of interaction and communication skills in educational Settings, especially in the context of higher education in China, and analyzes the impact of these skills on maximizing student learning outcomes. The paper emphasizes the importance of effective interaction and communication as core elements in the process of language learning, because language acquisition and ability development depend on the effective combination of input and output. The paper proposes that a comprehensive educational reform is necessary to address the identified communication barriers of students, aiming at promoting the improvement of students' interaction and communication skills. Such reforms are essential to achieve the goal of high-quality undergraduate education and to develop innovative and communicative skills.
