Exploration on the Setting of General Courses in Open Universities
General education is related to the quality of talents cultivation and social development.In practice,we should deeply understand its purpose and connotation,and implement individualized teaching rather than blindly imitate famous universities.The Open University of China mainly focuses on working adult education,and the provincial branches have accumulated some experiences and achievements in general education.However,there are still some problems,such as the unclear boundaries of general education courses,the lack of complementarity of professional courses,the inefficien-cy in meeting the needs of academic conditions,and the excessive emphasis on superficial liberal arts.General education courses should base on the characteristics of students and teaching methods,correctly understand the connotation of general education and general education courses.Curriculums should reflect the differences between junior college students and un-dergraduates,curriculums for junior college students should be specific,curriculums for undergraduates should be extensive.Students'needs should be considered,the assessment methods should be changed,and the Open University of China should organize the resource construction of"general education courses for different majors"with high-quality,so as to facilitate the career development of students.
