Abstract

General education has become a key issue in the reform of higher education in China. However, the reflection on the question of what kind of people are cultivated in universities and the search for the orientation of universities are far from over, because with the development of general education, general education has become theoretically popularized and vulgarized, and practically formalized and technicalized, which deviates from the true meaning of general education. The essence of general education is the education of values to reach a common value orientation in modern society. The shaping of common values is the soul and unifying factor of the entire general education, and is the bridge that connects the core courses of general education to each other and to the organic whole. This paper analyzes the current situation of general education in China and puts forward some reflections and suggestions to its optimization.
