With its aims to
cultivate high-quality competent individuals and
students at its core, the perennial focal point of
higher education research is how to leverage this
student factor to achieve high-quality education. The
relevant research on student-centered education has
gradually gained prominence since the 1990s. Based on
the student-centered teaching philosophy, the School of
Freshmen of Xi'an Technological University was
established, adhering to problem-oriented approaches,
consistently and persistently advances reforms in the
public basic curriculum system and pedagogical
approaches. The school has established "Foundation,
Advanced and Personalized" with tiered classification
curriculum development system, which has led to the
formation of the "12345" teaching model, emphasizing
"one central focus (student-centered), two effective
means (online and offline), three critical stages
(pre-class, in-class, post-class), four layers of
content (theoretical knowledge, case
introduction, practical application, and quality
enhancement), and five dimensions of assessment
(self-learning on the platform, classroom efficiency,
post-class assignments, various exams, and practical and
innovative competitions)." With the motto of "dedicated
teaching and committed nurturing", a modern higher
education teaching team with high teaching competence
and strong research abilities has been established.
Ultimately, it has achieved the goal of providing a
strong foundation for sustainable talent development in
public basic courses, resulting in significant
educational achievements. |
