    Abstract:

    Course construction is the key point to solve the current teaching problems. Moreover, course design is the most important part of course construction, which determines whether a curriculum can achieve the educational goal. This teaching reform was based on the learning-centered teaching philosophy and the principle of “constructive alignment”. We redesigned learning goals, learning activities and learning assessments according to the framework of “Integrated Course Design” named by Dee Fink. Especially, we designed learning goals which not only cover foundational knowledge, application, integration, but also emphasize human dimension, caring and learning how to learn. We organized teaching by “Presentation-Assimilation-Discussion”. One year after the end of the course, the questionnaire survey results showed that students’ recognition of achieving learning goals ranged from 64% to 87%. This shows that the “learning-centered” course design to a certain extent has achieved the desired results, it is worth exploring further.
