目前,民族院校通识平台选修课程存在着设置不合理的问题,课程教学质量有待提高。通识平台选修课程更多地趋向于功利色彩,课程设计简单化,课程内容媚俗化。鉴于此,必须考虑通识平台选修课程的“用”“进”“废”“退”问题。课程设计把好入口关,建设特色课程和优势校本课程,上课必须把握学生的选课心理、学习心理,采用新型学习方式,才能够使通识教育达到教育目标。

There were unreasonable problems on elective and general knowledge courses in Minzu Universities. These courses had some problems such as pragmatistic and simple design,catering for students,etc.Therefore the course designers should consider the use and disuse problems.
