The scientific and reasonable college class management methods not only can effectively maintain the teaching order in class, but also can improve the students' learning initiative and increase the teaching efficiency, thus improving the quality of higher education. However, the situation of college class management is not optimistic at present. This paper is aimed at analyzing the problems existing in China's college classes and exploring the relevant solutions based on them to provide the reference for the quality of China's higher education.展开更多
