Problems and countermeasures of the course of Herbaceous Plants Seed Science

In order to improve the student education quality, the problems of the Herbaceous Seed Science course of Pratacultural Science were analyzed in Gansu Agricultural University. The major problem included the lectures revolving around teacher rather than student; college students with less initiative and autonomous learning; more theory lectures rather than practice, less innovation and entrepreneurship education; some students lacking of learning motivation with lower learning enthusiasm. In order to solve above problems, some countermeasures were put forwarded that included the optimization course content, strengthening practice teaching, encouraging students to participate in scientific research and think and learn critically, handling well the relationship between confirmatory and exploratory experiments in practice, carrying out case teaching, as well as reforming curriculum evaluation system. Accordingly, it will promote the course construction of herbaceous plants seeds science forward to a high standard.
