On January 6th, WUT’s 2nd Teaching Innovation Contest was held in Zhiyuan Building in Dongyuan, Mafangshan Campus. Thirty-six teaching teams presented their innovation outcomes for further review and defense on site. Finally, 13 teams were awarded the special prize, 12 won the second, and 11 won the third after online and offline assessment.
The Contest, themed by “Promoting Teaching Innovation and Cultivating Top Talents”, aims at advancing WUT’s education and teaching reform and building a platform for teachers to demonstrate their innovation outcomes and exchange their ideas, giving full play to the leading and demonstration role of the contest. The contest contains two steps: first, judges assess syllabuses and reports of the teaching innovation outcomes online; after that, judges score the on-site presentations of teaching design and innovation and defense.
WUT attached great importance to this contest and invited experts to engage in on-site assessment and guidance, so as to lay a solid foundation for teachers to participate in provincial and national contests in 2022. The contest was streamed online with around 1700 viewers, having great effect.
Wang Fazhou, Vice President of WUT, watched the competition online and put forward five instructions on the contest and the innovation of teaching of WUT. First, the student-centered principle should be upheld to help teachers further explore effective ways to demonstrate the role of students as the center of studying, the center of development and the center to reflect the learning effect. Second, the problem-oriented approach should be used to further enhance teaching efficiency. Third, the higher order, innovative and challenging courses should be further improved. Teachers need to find the difficulties of teaching innovation and improve their teaching methods. Fourth, the extra-curriculum knowledge should be expanded to increase educational effect on students. Fifth, teaching innovation should be deepened and teachers’ academic competence, teaching competence and development competence should be further improved.
