Education Reform and Development

A Study on the Influence of Participatory Music Teaching Methods on the Pedagogical Perspectives of Master’s Students in Music Education: An Analysis Based on Experiences Following an Improvisation Course

Yutian Lin — 2026-06-03

Participatory music pedagogy has become popular in music education in recent years in the international system, as it focuses on accessibility, social interaction, and creativity in learning music. Nevertheless, there are limited qualitative studies that consider the effects of exposure to participatory pedagogy on the teaching conceptualizations of the learners who were educated using traditional methods in music. The setting of this study was in an improvisation course in one of the universities in Hong Kong. It employed semi-structured interviews of six master’s students in music education who had diverse undergraduate backgrounds (music education, instrumental performance, and vocal performance). Their actual experiences in their lives at the conclusion of the participatory improvisation course and its impact on their music education conceptions were examined in the study. The research was conducted based on four questions: How do students describe their participatory learning experiences in the course? What do they see as special features as opposed to conventional pedagogies? What is the impact of the course on their concept of music education? How do they see the implementation of these ideas and methods into future teaching practice? The initial findings indicate that the philosophy of the course, low floor, high ceiling, gamified collective improvisation practices, and social music experiences motivated the students to reevaluate the traditional models of skills. The conceptions of teaching expressed by students changed in their very meaning of imparting musical skills to allowing everyone to appreciate music with positive attitudes toward future application. The research offers empirical data regarding the impacts of participatory pedagogy among graduate students and presents lessons that can be applied in the curriculum reform in the new century in music teacher education.

Exploring the Teaching Path of the Systems Engineering Course Empowered by Generative Artificial Intelligence

Yu-bin Wang — 2026-05-26

The rapid growth of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has created both new opportunities and problems for instructional change in higher education. Systems Engineering, a key methodology course for “engineering management” postgraduates, aims to develop students’ abilities to understand and solve complex engineering problems using systematic thinking. However, persistent obstacles in teaching practice have long existed, including abstract theoretical concepts, methodologies with limited transferability to real-world circumstances, insufficient customized assistance, boring teaching forms, and strict evaluation practices. Taking the course of Systems Engineering as the research object, this study analyzes the course’s characteristics and teaching pain points. An overall framework is proposed, which centers on “human-machine collaboration”, with “pre-class, in-class, post-class” as the main line, and encompassing the dimensions of “teacher, student, and course assessment”. Based on this approach, we explain how GenAI might be integrated into the teaching of Systems Engineering from each of the three perspectives of teacher, student, and course assessment. This investigation is expected to serve as a reference for teaching reform in engineering management courses, aid in the development of compound engineering talents with systematic thinking ability, and contribute to the development of “new business” talents in the digital economy.

This paper analyzes the problems existing in traditional college English teaching, expounds the main scenarios for the integration of GAI and college English, and explores the integration and innovation paths from the aspects of teaching model, integration approach, role transformation and teaching evaluation, to provide references for accelerating the digital transformation and upgrading of English classrooms and cultivating students’ comprehensive English literacy.

Data-Driven: Evidence-Based Practice Research on Integrated Unit Teaching in Primary School Chinese: Taking the 8th Unit “Interesting Stories” in Grade 3 Volume 2 as an Example

Li Gao — 2026-06-03

A core challenge in the deepening of current Chinese teaching reform is how to transform integrated unit teaching from “experience-based design” to “evidence-based practice”. Taking the 8th Unit “Interesting Stories” in Grade 3 Volume 2 as a case, this research focuses on constructing a teaching closed loop of “data diagnosis—strategy optimization—hierarchical implementation—dynamic evaluation”. Multi-source data, including questionnaires, classroom observations, and homework analysis, comprehensively diagnose students’ difficulties in retelling ability and story creation, and explore precise implementation approaches such as scaffold construction, task-driven learning, and hierarchical homework in teaching. Data-driven unit teaching achieves a leap from “vague experience” to “precise student profiling”, a transformation from “unified teaching” to “hierarchical empowerment”, and an upgrade from “result-oriented evaluation” to “process-oriented value-added assessment”. This research proposes operable strategies, including the “three-stage model for retelling ability cultivation”, the “four-step method for character shaping in fairy tale creation,” and the “three strategies for hierarchical homework design”, providing an evidence-based practice example for integrated Chinese unit teaching.

Junxiu Zhou — 2026-06-03

Amid the wave of economic globalization and institutional opening-up, based on transaction cost and institutional change theory as well as regional development and regional innovation theory, this paper constructs a “theory-empirical-countermeasure” framework. It evaluates the effectiveness of the innovation of the foreign investment management system in Chongqing Pilot Free Trade Zone (FTZ) through questionnaires and empirical analysis. The results show that the “negative list” and the reform of “streamlining administration, delegating powers, improving regulation, and optimizing services” have achieved remarkable results, despite challenges. Therefore, this paper brings up suggestions such as strengthening integration, highlighting characteristics, and aligning with international standards.

Research on the Practice Path of the “Five- Comprehensive” Development Model for Vocational Undergraduate Students from the Perspective of “Five-Education Integration”

Tianqi Lan — 2026-06-03

Against the background that vocational undergraduate education focuses on cultivating high-level technical and skilled talents, this paper, from the student perspective and taking “Five-Education Integration” (moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and labor education) as the theoretical framework, explains the three-dimensional connotation of moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and labor education. It analyzes the internal logic of the deep coupling between the goals of the “Five Educations” (talent cultivation objectives) and the paths of the “Five-Comprehensive” (all-staff, all-process, all-dimension, all-factor, all-time and space, implementation paths). In view of the dilemmas faced by students in practicing the “Five Educations”, such as cognitive bias, disconnection between moral and labor education and practice, and lack of subjective consciousness, this paper puts forward a three-dimensional practice path: taking professional learning as the core to radiate the integration of the five educations, taking the campus second classroom as the platform to expand literacy, and taking career planning as the guide to strengthen self-management. It provides practical references for vocational undergraduate students to achieve both moral and technical development and all-round development, and helps them grow into high-quality talents adapting to career needs.

Practical Exploration on Continuing Education and Vocational Education Integration Training of Modern Housekeeping Teachers Oriented by OBE and Empowered by Intelligent Technology

Xin Zhao — 2026-06-03

Outcome-Based Education (OBE) emphasizes reverse design of teaching activities centered on learning outcomes, which helps solve dilemmas in the current housekeeping teacher training system, break barriers between continuing education and vocational education, and improve the systematicness and coherence of talent training. The rapid development of intelligent technology facilitates resource sharing. Based on OBE-oriented integration training of modern housekeeping teachers in continuing education and vocational education empowered by intelligent technology, this paper expounds from three dimensions: concept integration and mechanism innovation, curriculum reconstruction and resource sharing, team construction and quality assurance, so as to promote the reform of housekeeping teacher training mode and improve training efficiency.

Blended and Project-Based Learning for Numerical ODEs: A Practical Framework for Undergraduate Mathematics Programs with Limited Credit Hours

Ning Bai — 2026-06-03

Numerical solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are a basic course for undergraduates majoring in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Due to the limitation of credit hours, there are many problems in this course, such as abstract theoretical content, insufficient practical training, and disconnection between theory and practical application. Based on the results-oriented education, the principle of construction consistency, cognitive load theory and Bloom’s classification theory of educational objectives, this paper constructs an integrated teaching framework for senior undergraduates. The framework arranges the low-level cognitive task as self-learning before online class. Classroom teaching focuses on the cultivation of high-level analytical ability, and designs a three-level progressive project experimental system to guide students to gradually complete knowledge understanding, code implementation and problem solving. The course reconstructs the teaching content around the three-dimensional training goal of knowledge, ability and literacy, and focuses on the core idea of numerical algorithm and program implementation method. After a semester of teaching practice, students’ understanding of the core concepts of the course is more solid, their ability in algorithm programming and mathematical modeling is significantly improved, and their interest in applied mathematics is also enhanced. This teaching framework has good generality and can provide a reference for the teaching reform of computational mathematics courses at home and abroad.

Construction and Practice of a Hybrid Project- Based Collaborative Teaching Model for Mathematical Modeling Courses under Limited Teaching Hours Constraints

Xiaojie Jing — 2026-06-03

In response to the common teaching problems in undergraduate mathematical modeling courses, such as tight teaching time, complex knowledge system, disconnection between theory and practical competition, single teaching method, and one-sided evaluation system, this paper will adopt the educational concept of outcome-oriented learning, and support it with the theory of constructively aligned and cognitive load theory. It will construct a new teaching model different from traditional numerical courses. With the goal of cultivating students’ knowledge, ability, and quality in three dimensions, the course modules will be reorganized. Through online self-study to carry out low-level cognitive tasks and offline classes to focus on high-level modeling thinking discussions, a three-level project training system of basic practical operation, comprehensive application, and innovative expansion will be designed. Finally, an assessment mechanism combining comprehensive process evaluation and final evaluation will be established. Teaching practice has shown that this collaborative teaching model can effectively resolve the contradiction between teaching time and teaching content, help students build modeling thinking, and improve their abilities of question analysis, model design, algorithm implementation, and team scientific and technological innovation. This teaching model can provide a reference for the teaching reform of similar applied mathematics courses in universities.
