Abstract

This thesis compares the differences in teaching objectives and developing modes between Chinese and American university courses, the autonomy of students and the classroom interaction in both countries, as well as different assessment methods for students’ learning results, thus reflecting the implementation of course education in Chinese and American universities under the influence of different social and cultural background. The aim is to serve as a reference for the improvement of university curriculum setting and specific teaching in China via the comparison of the implementation of course education. with the rapid development of science and technology as well as the increasing demand and renewal of knowledge, since the 1980s, China and the United States have carried out a ceaseless round of reforms from preschool education to higher education according to their national circumstances, cultural traditions and social demands. Among them, as the intermediate bridge for students from learning stage to social life, college students’ education has always been the focus of the two countries. Especially after entering the 21st century, this thesis attempts to compare the university curriculum teaching objective, mode, autonomy and interactivity of students in the process of education of in Chinese and American universities, as well as their evaluation of performance, hoping to help the teachers deepen their awareness of China’s higher education and find out the effectiveness and shortcomings of China’s higher education model, thus promoting the further optimization and development of higher education in China.
