Research and application of the modular teaching system of German Fachhochschule

摘要

In recent years, there have been complaints that the traditional curriculum system of the universities of China do not respond properly to the needs of the labour market. To be competitive in a global market and to educate successful global talents, the universities of China have to restructure their education programs. In this paper, based on the successful experiences in the modular teaching of the German University of Applied Science (Fachhochschule), we present a new modular teaching system which is a mode of output-oriented knowledge, and give the method to construct the modular teaching system. Then we discuss some key problems in implementing this teaching system. The idea mentioned above has been successfully applied to the computer science and technology major of Shanghai University of Engineering Science of China. The result shows that it is benefial to train the applied talent.
