On Mar. 9,the first teaching affairs meeting of the new semesterwas held in the second conference room of the main building. Vice President Meng Dawei attended and addressed the meeting. Those from Teaching Supervising Office, Teaching Affairs Office, Higher Education Research Division，Laboratory Management Officeand all the teaching units, responsible for teaching affairs, also attended the meeting chaired by Ge Baojun, Director of TeachingAffairs Office.
Specific teaching tasks in this semester were deployed and arranged during the meeting. TeachingAffairs Office first informed attendees about final exams in the last semester and make-up ones in the beginning of this semester. Meanwhile, it was required that relevant teaching units should organize teachers of various majors to further improve declaration materials of “Excellent Engineers Program”.
Ge made a detailed explanation of2011 Priorities of Higher Education Division, arranged national and provincial quality engineering projects in the next stage, in particular, the re-assessment of provincial key majors and laid out the inspection and acceptance of undergraduate cultivation plan of the new edition.
Meng deployed the teaching affairs in the new semester from the following five aspects.
First, we must continue to vigorously strengthen the learning atmosphere construction. Party Committee and Presidents in our university have always attached great importance to the construction of learning atmosphere, testing environment and disciplines. During the final examination in the last semester, President Li Dayong went to examination rooms in person, inspected examination rooms on every campus and requested the relevant departments to think about and deal with the problems seriously in the examinations. Meng required teaching management personnel to thoroughly understand the spirit of rules and regulations set by our university and put them into effect strictly in accordance with current provisions, teachers to focus on teaching quality, take the teaching process seriously and carry out the invigilating responsibilities to guarantee quality and quantity in teaching. Meng also raised expectations for students that they should take pride in honesty, be industrious and diligent, be self-disciplined to become a new generation with lofty ideals, moral integrity, good education and a strong sense of discipline.
Second, teaching management personnel should enhance learning ability. Teaching management personnel not only need to strengthen the learning ability in teaching management knowledge, but also in ideological and political theory. With a combination of actual work, they should learn2011 Priorities of Higher Education Divisionseriously and deeply understand the spirit of relevant documents issued by national and provincial departments at all levels, and then put them into operation. It was necessary for them to convey the content and spirit of the meeting to teachers and staff in each teaching unit.
Third, internal quality monitoring system needed implementing. Considering the next teaching assessment, teaching units should prepare for the work as early as possible, which would be expected to be carried out in the second half of the year.
Fourth, teaching tasks in “12thFive-Year Plan” needed fully implementing. Our university has established “12thFive-Year Plan”. During its implementation, the teaching units should organize teachers to decompose teaching tasks annually. It needed a careful planning and meticulous arrangements in putting it into practice.
Fifth, other teaching tasks were deployed.
The participants listened carefully to the teaching arrangements of this semester. The smooth convocation of the meeting was of great significance in implementing the spirit of national documents, conveying the spirit of our university, carrying out teaching tasks in “12thFive-Year Plan” and arranging teaching tasks of this semester.
