The traditional teaching and learning process in China is constantly being challenged by educational reformists trying to create something better. One such effort has been happening since the beginning of this term at Cuiyuan Middle School. They have implemented so-called research type learning, an obligatory (义务的) course added by the Ministry of Education.
As a pilot of the new course, all 600 Senior One students chose the 152 research topics. The research type learning, which is based on students independent thinking and creation, targets the students overall (全面的) development and forging application ability.
