Abstract: The purpose of this paper investigates the current situation of the draft lecture use in Donglu Middle school by questionnaires and interviews. It is found that most teachers and students hold positive attitudes towards it. However, there are still some problems with the use of draft lecture in Donglu Middle School. Firstly, some students don’t know how to make full use of the draft lecture to preview, practice and review. Secondly, the time left for students to raise questions and find solutions is not enough. Thirdly, teachers’ feedback t is not sufficient.
