In brief, the animation industry is a sunrise industry, for promotes our country animation industry fast healthy development, the university should further consummate the education directive, the attention enhances the student to synthesize the quality, takes student＇ s innovation ability and the practice ability raise, the enhancement and the enterprise cooperation. In the process of positioning the cartoon talent should be based on the basic needs of the animation industry employment, the establishment of the basic skills of talent training objectives, in order to make talent positioning and industry needs closer. In the future, we will apply the proposed method in the general teaching activities to enhance the overall performance.展开更多

As teachers, we want to use every opportunity to help students broaden environment for English learning and using, trying to find a life-based teaching pattern that using is learning and learning is using. As a result, English teaching can integrated with real-life, creating the live-based teaching atmosphere for students to immerse them. The pattern encourages students to subtly become infected with classroom English teaching which built by the concept of life, combining innovative spirit and practical ability and truly reflects the communicative function in English when students come to the society.展开更多
