The educational module of "platform + blocks" at N university is the shortened name of the educational module, based on "platform + blocks' curriculum structure system. It means on the basis of recruiting students according to disciplines, the students will complete their study through the course structure of "platform + blocks" and flexible credit options. After the students enter the school, in the first two years they do not have the speciality, which are studying at school by "platform + module" structure course offered and elasticity. In the latter two years, the students may choose speciality independently by the rule of "wish + inspection". After completing the platform education of the specialized foundation, the students can choose the specialized direction according to their own wish, and this realizes the second divergences of speciality. This pattern has the basic characteristic of "the broadening of knowledge, the development of individuality, the focus of innovation, the adaptability of demand", and seeks to make the organic synthesis between the specialist education and the generalist education. focusing on the implementation of education for all-around development and the innovation education, strengthening the student individuality, satisfying the society's need of various talented persons. Above all, it creates the condition of the enhancement of the multiple qualities and the individuality development for students. As one kind of innovative educational module, it can not work without the corresponding teaching management, and the realization of its goal must be guaranteed by the necessary teaching control system.However, during the five years of the implemention of this new educational module at N university, and through the investigation, it has found that the necessary teaching control system safeguarding the new educational module has three limitations: the credit system execution is not very thorough; the student's learning instruction system is imperfect; monitoring and safeguard system the quality of teaching is lack of role. All these have affected the bigger function of the educational module.After the further analysis on the above questions, the reason for the first problem that we mentioned above,which is mainly due to lack of the quantity of the elective courses, and the freedom of choosing teachers is too limited, and the systems of credit recognition among schools are not implemented completely. The second problem we mentioned above, manifests on the system of credit system. In the system, the students are lack of planning how to arrange their study and how to program their own professional orientation.The last one we mentioned above, is mainly on the insufficient construction of speciality, the curriculum, and teaching materials. The curriculum provision on the platform and the module should be improved gradually, and the monitoring system of the teaching quality is still not so consummate.The connection of the talented persons and local economy still needs to be further strengthened.The research resucts on how to solve the above problems is that we should optimize or innovate the teaching system fitting for the educational module, which is the key point in how to exert the benefit on this module.In the thesis, the author proposes three suggestions on the above problems.Firstly, we should enrich and develop the credit system.Above all, we should stipulate the corresponding policy by considering the curriculum and the teachers.On the curriculum aspect,the school should establish the related support policy and the curriculum verification and check system.On the teacher aspect,the school should draw up all kinds of policies which are benefitial to the teachers.For the teachers who are engaged from outside,the school should establish the corresponding policy on rights and duties, and also the curriculum verification and check system.Then, comprehensively, we should completely implement the policy of focusing on choosing the teachers independently. To the public foundation platform curriculum, we can carry out the policy entirely .To some discipline foundation platform curriculum and the specialized foundation platform curriculum, we can implement the policy of several teachers for one subject as widely as possible, so as to popularize the system of choosing teachers by students themselves.Lastly, we should establish the policy of recognizing the intercollegate credits. In the teaching plan, we should bring into the courses from other schools.Simultaneously we should also stipulate the principles of credits recognition between universities.Secondly, we should strengthen the study instruction system.Above all, we can realize the system by spreading the undergraduate student tutorial system.The tutor can be divided into credit system teacher (lower grade) and scientific research teacher (higher grades). Then, we can establishe the individualized study instruction system, including facturing the full instruction books and establishing the center on study instruction.Finally we can establishe the study warning system, including designing and developing the curriculum information management system, designing each student's educational which is dynamic, full of instruction, as well as, feedbacking the study process and quality and so on. In this way, we can reach our target on warning the student's study in time.Thirdly we should perfect monitoring and safeguard system of the teaching quality.Above all, we may consummate the system of the person who is in charge of the speciality and the curriculum group. It shall be taken as daily work for the school to develop the electives, enlarge the dynamics of curriculum reform, enhance the curriculum quality, develop the connotation and the depth of the speciality.Then, we should do well in the module design and the platform building. The school should highly concentrate the necessary elementary knowledge and the basic skills that some speciality needs. Simultaneously, the school should establish the modules that emphasize practical-ability, the professional-orienteed qualifications, and the school should also adjust the module curriculum nimbly according to actual situation every year.Next, the school should Consummate the system of the monitoring ang safeguarding teaching quality. It can be perfected by basing on the original policies to implement the new teacher's training plan, the regular monitoring system, the information contact feedback system, the appraisal system as well as the teaching public hearing, the real-time monitoring inquiry system on the network, and also the feedback system of all previous graduates.Finally, the school should establishe the educational base, construct the local service system.We can speed up the steps by establishing the center that the students can make more practices and do some innovation work there, establishing the base outside for the students to carve out, and by establishing the partner relations with the local enterprises and seeking the local government's support.
