At present, most of the courses are academic rational orientation . There are the following challenges in teaching: The teaching content is theoretical and biased towards the “discipline-centered orientation”; The teaching method is single, and the traditional teaching of teachers is the main one; Teaching evaluation pays attention to scores and focuses on result evaluation. This is not accord with the training objectives of application-oriented private universities. Faced with such challenges, we need to carry out curriculum reform and innovation, take problems as the main line and optimize curriculum content; tak e students as the main body and chang e teaching methods; focus on process evaluation, enrich the evaluation methods.
