As online general courses have the nature of both“general”and “online”, more attention should be paid to the knowledge that helps to improve students’ability of thinking and judging when preparing the teaching contents. Besides, it is significant for instructors to update their teaching contents and recruit new achievements of subject development in time. When comes to the teaching methods, heuristic teaching and classroom interaction become more important as this can provide students with a diversified perspective of cognition and a multi-perspective way of thinking. Diversified procedural and non-standardized assessment takes a higher position in the way of examination. For the teaching management, it should be scientific and detailed, with a purpose to bring students’subjective initiative into full play and develop students’ability of independent learning.High-quality online general courses play an important role in expanding high quality curriculum resources in universities of science and technology.
