Abstract

In China's higher mathematics teaching, there are two outdated textbook models, extensive classification of textbooks and poor pertinence, students lack of understanding of mathematics application methods in the process of learning mathematics, and there is a misunderstanding of mathematics learning between applied professional teachers and mathematics teachers. Mathematics sub-discipline teaching faces many difficulties: the conservative teaching environment lacks the motivation to expand knowledge; the lack of communication between professional teachers and mathematics teachers. The sub-discipline reform of advanced mathematics is a systematic project. The curriculum and teaching paradigm of advanced mathematics need to be reformed, and the education authorities need to play a guiding role to carry out teacher training and in-service teacher training from the perspective of STEM.
