w88 casino News (w88 casino of International Economics and w88)In order to further improve the teaching quality and enhance the teaching effect, the w88 casino of Economics and w88 held a teaching method seminar during the holidays, mainly focusing on "result-based teaching method" (Outcomes Based Teaching&Learning, abbreviationOBTL) conducted discussions and solicited opinions and suggestions on conducting experimental work on teaching methods in undergraduate teaching in our college. Dean Zhao Zhongxiu, teachers including Shi Dan, Wang Jian, Han Qi, Jiang Xianling, Zhang Wei, Wang Xiaodong and Yang Weiyong attended the meeting and had a lively discussion. The seminar was chaired by Vice President Tang Yihong.
The "outcome-based teaching method" is mainly a teaching method that closely integrates teaching activities, expected learning outcomes and performance evaluation, and designs student-oriented curriculum plans to enhance learning outcomes and better cultivate talents that meet the needs of society. It is currently being gradually promoted in many universities in the UK, Australia and Hong Kong.OBTLhas two obvious characteristics: (1) Put students first. It regards "learning" as the center of the entire teaching activity.OBTLEmphasize that learning is not a passive process of receiving knowledge, but an active process of constructing knowledge. The main function of course teaching is to help learners construct knowledge. The ultimate goal of learning is to transform the learned knowledge into the ability to deal with various problems. Teachers should strive to mobilize students' enthusiasm and initiative for learning, let them participate in the teaching process, and make students the main body of teaching activities. (2) Results-oriented. inOBTLIn the method, expected learning goals, specific and clear learning content, diversified teaching methods and multi-level assessment methods form an organic whole with "effectiveness" as the core. Teaching activities must be designed to promote students to achieve learning effectiveness,OBTLTeaching methods help students understand course requirements more clearly, develop their abilities more extensively, and reflect learning results more accurately.
Deputy Shi DanThe professor introduced based on her experience of inspection and observation at City University of Hong KongOBTLand its implementation and effects in City University of Hong Kong. Shi Dan mentioned that from the perspective of teaching, handouts are sent to students before class, self-tests are added after class, and clear teaching objectives need to be designed. The workload of teachers in the early stage is significantly increased. This teaching method is very effective in some courses with strong skills. According to different courses, the teaching objectives at different levels of knowledge system, technical skills, and practical ability should be separated, and the effect will be better. Finally, she proposed that we should mainly absorb this student-centered teaching concept, pay more attention to the cultivation of students' abilities, and be completely student-oriented to achieve the goal of market talent needs.
Dean Zhao Zhongxiu believes that in today’s international context, our teaching methods must also absorb and learn from advanced international concepts. The traditional teaching method is teacher-centered and students passively accept it. Now it is necessary to transform into a student-centered teaching method that can stimulate students’ potential and teach students in accordance with their aptitude. Therefore, for us, on the one hand, we adopt the "appropriation principle" and learn the new teaching concepts and teaching models of City University of Hong Kong; on the other hand, we fully mobilize interested teachers to conduct discussions and experiments on teaching methods based on the characteristics of our college, continue to learn and improve in practice, and summarize their experiences,Promote teaching methods that are conducive to improving teaching quality.
Based on their own practice and experience in teaching method reform over the years, all participating teachers spoke freely and believed that it is necessary to continuously improve teaching methods and improve teaching quality. They also exchanged some successful experiences and some problems that need to be solved. For example, there were discussions and discussions on how to carry out teaching interaction in large class teaching, the implementation of the teaching assistant system, how to solve the problem of student free-riding in group discussions and group papers, the differences in teacher workload and student learning load with different teaching methods and their evaluation and assessment issues, the relationship between classroom teaching and student ability development, and the relationship between students' learning habits and teaching method reform under exam-oriented education.
The w88 casino of Economics and w88 plans to gradually promote the research and experimental work on teaching methods throughout the w88 casino, and provide certain encouragement and support in terms of policies. The participating teachers also expressed their willingness to participate in experimental activities on teaching methods.
