At the same time, social demand for college students＇ English newspaper reading ability has also improved. But the existing teaching effect of English newspaper reading course is not ideal. What is proposed in this paper is to apply the research-oriented teaching mode to the teaching of English newspaper reading and expound the three stages of pre-reading, reading, and after-reading respectively in order to subvert the teaching of reading class over which teachers dominate traditionally, to change the center of the double main bodies, to develop learners＇ intellectual and non-intellectual factors of comprehensive quality, and to improve their ability of discovering, researching, and solving the problems.展开更多

This study provides a valuable methodology to understand the current demands of employers for library staff. It also begins to highlight trends in how the skill set and outlook for future employees are currently being viewed. There has been a combination of these understandings with the scenario planning technique to draw threads anticipating skill requirements in three to five years. These approaches create a powerful analysis. An examination of recent library position advertisements and job descriptions in five countries and regions showed broad communication and technology skills required in academic libraries. The key terms of skills were ranked according to the frequencies used in the advertisements and descriptions.

An IL course was designed by subject librarians of National Science Library(NSL), Chinese Academy of Sciences(CAS), with three patterns addressing the development of graduate students' IL competencies.Research limitations: It is only about the practice of subject librarians at NSL, CAS, in designing IL courses for graduate students enrolling in graduate courses offered by College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, GUCAS.Practical implications: The results can provide a lot of useful information for the improvement of IL competencies of graduate students in science and technology disciplines.Originality/value: It is significant for assisting future subject librarians in incorporating IL skills into their course, especially for academic and research librarians to prepare and develop IL courses for science and engineering graduate students.展开更多

It is in line with the strategic goal of national personnel training and has a unique position in the cultivation of college students' comprehensive quality. The effectiveness of the teaching methods of military theory directly affects the teaching quality of military theory in colleges and universities. However, there are many problems in the current teaching methods of military theory, which restrict the improvement of teaching quality. Therefore, the research on how to improve and innovate the teaching methods is of great theoretical and practical significance to the teaching effect of the military theory course. This study is based on the existing educational background and its significance, combined with the existing experience and practice, relying on the military theory teaching and research section of Guangdong Vocational College of Science and Trade, trying to put forward a new teaching method-"research-oriented" teaching method which is in line with the higher vocational college students' cognitive laws, and providing reference for the reform and innovation of the teaching method of military theory in colleges and universities. In order to solve the problems existing in the course of military theory and realize the systematic design of the overall linkage of the teaching model, taking the course of "Introduction to Integrated Joint Operations" as an example and guided by the concept of integrated education, centering on the teaching objectives of military theory and meeting the training needs of first-class military personnel, the teaching model of military theory with systematic characteristics has been constructed through the reform of the establishment of teaching concepts, the improvement of course design, the reconstruction of teaching content, the optimization of teaching methods and the transformation of assessment mechanism, etc., which provides theoretical and practical reference for improving the teaching effect and better promoting the teaching reform of military theory.展开更多
