Around April 29, 2024, the 7th provincial college young teachers' teaching competition, hosted by the provincial federation of trade unions and the provincial education department, came to an end at Harbin Normal University. Teacher Gao Shuai from our college demonstrated solid professional qualities and excellent teaching skills and won the first prize in the science group.
The participating course "Optics" is a compulsory course for undergraduates majoring in Optical and Electronic Information Science and Engineering and is among the third batch of provincial first-class courses. Gao Shuai said: Optics is the "stepping stone" for students majoring in optoelectronics to enter the professional field. He hopes to lay a more solid foundation of optical knowledge for students through this course. During the preparation for the competition, he refined his teaching concepts, methods, and processes and gained a deeper understanding of how to integrate ideological and political elements. In the future, he will bring the experience of this competition back to the classroom and integrate it into daily teaching to further improve the quality of teaching.
The 7th provincial college young teachers' teaching competition, with the concept of "teaching a good course", has five groups: liberal arts, science, engineering, medicine, and ideological and political courses. The age of the participating teachers is limited to under 40 years old. The competition is divided into two stages: the preliminary round and the final round.
