Abstract

This chapter focuses on a discussion of general education curriculum development in international universities, with an emphasis on the reflective pedagogical practice found in China. It defines general education in the context of Chinese academia, and explores its development and future trends influenced by the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and contemporary transnational education (TNE). In particular, this chapter examines the curriculum design of the law and morality module (L & M Module) taught at the Chinese Culture Teaching Center (CCTC) at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU), Suzhou, China, and identifies any practical problems in relation to teaching quality and assessment methods. It also advances corresponding suggestions to enhance students' learning outcomes and efficiency.
