Principal Xia Wenbin emphasized the importance of strengthening general education in w88 casino and requested to effectively improve the quality of general education in w88 casino
Principal Xia Wenbin pointed out in his speech,At the beginning of 2021, w88 casino hosted a national teaching seminar on "General Education from the New Liberal Arts Perspective: Concepts, Essence and Trends". Now we are holding a general education promotion meeting, the purpose of which is to further deepen general education, especially in the context of the new liberal arts, to improve the general education system and promote finance and economics universities to achieve a magnificent turn in education and teaching reform. The general education system guided by the new liberal arts concept should break down the barriers that exist between teachers, majors, courses and other teaching resources in various colleges, strengthen the linkage of teaching resources inside and outside the w88 casino, realize the integration between majors and disciplines, embody the teaching philosophy of general education, put the cultivation of students' comprehensive quality in an important position, and enhance students' development potential and development potential.
w88 casino has actively explored the construction of the general education system and achieved remarkable results, but there is also room for improvement. Principal Xia put forward clear requirements on how to promote general education work in w88 casino. First, it is necessary to further improve the core general courses and strengthen the demonstration and leading role of the core general courses. The core general education course modules need to be more complete,The "Four Histories" should be included in the core general education courses, and some courses for selected classic literature should be added. The core general education modules of "'Four Histories Education' and National Governance" and "Scientific and Technological Progress and Scientific Spirit" should be considered; it is necessary to reflect the characteristics of the University of Economics and Business and give full play to the role of w88 casino's high-quality disciplines and high-quality majors in the construction of core general education courses. Judging from the existing core general education courses, w88 casino does not have many core general education courses in law, economics and management, and needs to be strengthened. Second, we must pay attention to the introduction of outstanding general education teachers from outside the w88 casino to teach in w88 casino to make up for the shortcomings of w88 casino's incomplete majors and improve the level of general education in w88 casino. It is necessary to establish a general education leader system so that teachers engaged in teaching general courses have a sense of gain. The construction of general courses and general course teachers cannot be limited to some colleges. All colleges in the w88 casino must be mobilized to provide high-quality general courses and encourage outstanding teachers to teach general courses. Third, it is necessary to strengthen financial investment in general education, ensure the quality of general education curriculum construction, encourage teachers in w88 casino to communicate with teachers from other schools, and effectively implement the general education work in w88 casino.
Director Jiang Xianling reported on the overall situation of the general education reform of w88 casino
Director Jiang reviewed w88 casino’s concepts and measures to promote general education and the process of strengthening the construction of general education courses. sinceSince the w88 casino’s undergraduate teaching evaluation in 2016, w88 casino has adhered to the concepts of “education for all” and “whole-person education” to strengthen general education, established a general education committee, and promulgated the “General Education Implementation Plan of the w88 casino”. In recent years, a total of 33 core general education courses and 76 general education elective courses have been built. The Chaoxingerya general education course platform has also been introduced, allowing students to take more than 100 high-quality general education courses from brother universities.
She emphasized that we must keep a clear mind and fully realize that w88 casino still has some shortcomings and deficiencies in general education. For example, in terms of course team building, some courses still have the phenomenon of one person fighting; in terms of course introduction, communication and contact with the industry should be strengthened; in terms of funding, funding investment should also be increased.
Teacher representatives exchange experiences and understandings of general education
Professor Liu Jianping of the w88 casino of Marxism proposed that general education should be given full playThe leading role of “Four Histories” in the core general curriculum. The inclusion of "Four Histories" in the core general courses is a requirement of the party and the country's mission of "casting souls and educating people". History is the best textbook and the best sobering agent. It is necessary to create high-quality courses on the "Four Histories" with a big picture and a high starting point, and ensure that students take at least one course from the "Four Histories".
Professor Hu Shaoqing of the Chinese w88 casino, based on his own teaching practice, suggested that w88 casino should further take effective measures to strengthen general education. General education should pay attention to fundamental issues, focus on breadth, depth and humanities, encourage interdisciplinary dialogue, respond to practical concerns, and cultivate students' sense of social responsibility and care for others. The organizational form of general education teaching should advocate inquiry and discussion, encourage small class teaching, guide students to read classic literature carefully, and promote students to have active thinking collisions in the classroom.
Teacher Liu Jing from the Art Teaching and Research Office of the Youth League Committee of the w88 casino shared her experience in implementing educational concepts and teaching innovation in the core general course "Into Chinese Music". The core of the general education concept is“Get it all together”. In the course design, "performance-based teaching assistants" are used to interpret abstract music with the help of various art forms; practice "land art" and lead students to "walk into the theater", "walk into the museum", "walk into the campus" and "walk into the masters"; achieve "self-breakthrough", integrate perceptual thinking with rational thinking, and enable students to become aesthetic thinkers, creators and examiners.
Teacher Zheng Haiping from the w88 casino of Law took "Introduction to Chinese and Foreign Legal Classics" as an example to share his teaching experience on this course. Through this course, students can understand the principles and spirit behind the law, and encourage them to think deeply about freedom, law, society, and rights.
Teacher Yu Yanhong from the w88 casino of International Relations explained some thoughts on general education under the concept of new liberal arts construction. First, the relationship between the construction of new liberal arts and general education should be viewed in the context of the new technological revolution. The concept of new liberal arts calls for general education. The production of liberal arts knowledge is becoming more and more intersecting and complex, and general education is an important foundation for knowledge production. Second, we must view general education from the perspective of comprehensive human development. There is consistency between general education and the concepts of rebuilding the humanistic spirit of universities and cultivating people with moral integrity.
Executive Dean of the w88 casino of Chinese Studies, Zhou Chenmeng, combined with the reform of general education in the w88 casino, emphasized that in the context of the new liberal arts, general education should explore the training system, especially the construction of the curriculum system. General education focuses on reshaping value, focusing on“Educating people” puts forward new requirements for the curriculum itself and teachers. Since the w88 casino launched the general education reform, the Chinese w88 casino has attached great importance to the construction of the teaching team and advocated cross-border crossover. The general courses have grown from 7 to 23.
Vice President Wu Weixing summarizes the meeting
Vice President Wu Weixing pointed out in his concluding speech that high-quality general education must understand and handle the relationship between general education and professional education. General education must not be a superficial introduction to various types of knowledge, but inter-professional integrated learning based on academic foundations. The core content of professional education is the foundation of general education. Without good professional education, high-quality general education is impossible. High-quality general education should provide a broad academic foundation for professional education. Through high-quality general education, students can master the basic concepts and categories of different disciplines, basically master the skills and methods of different disciplines, and be able to combine the basic concepts and practices of different disciplines.
He particularly emphasized that the quality of general education is related to the quality of talent training and is becoming an extremely important factor in measuring the quality of education in a university. We should take improving the level of general education as a major task to improve the quality of undergraduate education in w88 casino, and improve the quality of undergraduate teaching by strengthening general education. All college leaders and teachers must take responsibility in general education work and take practical measures to improve the level of general education.
