About This Program

The university, education and teaching are confronted with the grounded reform under the attack of social power including economic globalization, knowledge economy and information technology. The state council has pressed The “Thirteenth Five-year Plan” for National Education Development, proposing that the undergraduate education and teaching should be deeply reformed, particularly, launching the inspirational, cooperative, participative and research-led “students-Centered” learning method and enhancing students’ personal development. Obviously, the university teaching has been transformed from “teacher-centered” to “students-centered”, which must have the reform opportunities encouraged by the national policy.

So, how to be “students-centered” in university teaching? How current university students learn? How the teaching can promote the learning experience of students? How the front-line teachers could be encouraged to discover in teaching innovation by the university? For discussing those above questions in depth, the “XJTLU Education Forum: Teaching Innovation Forum has been jointly held by Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University and Zhejiang International Studies University on November 10th, 2017.
