“Student-Centered” OBE-PAD Teaching Model and Practices—The Case of International Business Communication Course

Abstract

Focusing on teacher’s leading role, traditional teaching model has limited effect on students’ self-learning ability improvement, practical ability promotion, and innovation consciousness cultivation. Taking international business communication course as an example, the study puts forward “student-centered” teaching model based on OBE-PAD concept, and forms a “three-trinity” teaching activity system with teacher-centered teaching process, student-centered expansion process, and achievement-oriented assessment process. Recent five years teaching practices of the international business communication course show that the OBE-PAD model can effectively improve the teaching level of international business communication and the students’ international business communication practices, which is conducive to improving the quality of professional talents training.
