Non really. Typical questions about TLA methods. There seemed to be an emphasis on case studies, and interactive teaching. This is strange as the College like many schools in China cannot move away from a 'chalk and talk' approach to teaching. Any attempt to move towards a structured student centred teaching approach will be resisted by students and will not be supported by management.
