The Current Teaching Situation of Surveying & Cartography Curriculum and Counter Measures in Teachers Universities

The Surveying & Cartography is an integrated curriculum derived from the Surveying and the Cartography. As a highly practical and professional course, major problems are found in the following aspects: an unsystematic curricular system with textbooks lacking in pointedness; high difficulty of teaching due to huge content with too limited class hours; tough request of learning ability and high practicality; and a teaching evaluation system badly in need of perfection. Suggestions for improvement are put forth focusing on the four aspects: the curricular system, the teaching approaches, the students’ learning methods and evaluation methods aiming to serve as reference for the enhancement of teaching quality.
