Teaching activities turn to the new concept of "student-centered". In teaching activities, we should establish the new concept of "student-centered". 2 1 century, mankind has entered the era of knowledge economy, and knowledge innovation will become the leading force in the development of human society. The continuity and infinity of knowledge growth and scientific and technological innovation determine that "there is no constant teacher in learning" and "there is no end to learning"
The whole higher education should also conform to the trend of the times and develop in the direction of "wide caliber, long-term use and compound" Therefore, it is necessary to change the long-term teacher-centered passive education mode, fully mobilize the initiative, enthusiasm and creativity of students, and give full play to the leading role of teachers and the main role of students.
All teaching activities should be student-centered, pay attention to cultivating students' comprehensive quality, adhere to the principle of comprehensive and coordinated development of morality, intelligence and physique, advocate heuristic, lecture and research-based teaching in the teaching process, guide students to actively participate in the teaching process and advocate teaching interaction. At the same time, it is more important to teach students how to acquire new knowledge and cultivate their ability of independent thinking and innovation.
