As of end of December 2010, Taiwan reports over 160 colleges and universities and is proclaimed as a country that reports highest college density. Therefore, a heavy impact and acute competition between colleges and universities has made the schools spare no effort to enhance quantity & quality of teaching and research related resources to stay competitive. However, a large improvement is required to the existing university e-libraries in terms of manpower allocation, budget amount, software & hardware facilities, quantity & quality of library collection and management philosophy deficiencies. Therefore, the management of various libraries needs to reinforce librarians’ capabilities in management and decision making to enhance overall library performance. The paper mainly follows various decision-making thinking, decision-making philosophy, decision-making mindset, decision-making methods and decision-making discipline ideas of Habitual Domains, with over 10 years personal experience of being a curator of university library considered to come up with strategies that are beneficial to the decision making thinking of university curators in Taiwan, so as to achieve the performance of library affairs and to expect to enable a new opportunity for the future development of university e-libraries in Taiwan.

Important Means

<p>In order to provide better teaching facilities and scientific research practice services, colleges and universities must establish a professional administrative teaching management system. Its establishment can not only meet the quality of teaching and the development of education, but also greatly improve the scientific operation level of administrative work. Compared with the traditional teaching management, undoubtedly, the advantages of the administrative teaching management system are very obvious. The administrative teaching management mode of colleges and universities is an important means for modern culture to promote the reform, which conforms to the main characteristics of the reform and development of modern universities. This paper analyzes and discusses the thinking framework of administrative management in colleges and universities based on modern culture, and finally comes to a conclusion.</p>

Quality Of Teaching

One of the main goals of any higher education system is developing students’ critical thinking. Critical thinking contributes to decision-making and problem-solving skills, whether for professional or personal purposes. Teaching, on the other hand, has been largely influenced by new information technologies which have changed some of the related concepts and tools. The quality of the teaching process is multidimensional which is why no single unit of its measurement has been developed yet, in spite of numerous surveys that have collected massive amounts of information from the existing practice. The aim of this paper is to establish the most appropriate higher education quality measure, which would consist of all relevant indicators from different aspects, including implementation of critical thinking in the teaching process, weighting by two main groups of participants in the process - teachers and students. Multicriteria decision-making has been recognised as a suitable framework for achieving this goal. In fact, the problem of measuring teaching staff performance could be set up as a classical problem of multicriteria decision-making. With this approach the quality of teaching process should be simultaneously estimated by n quality assurance criteria and in accordance with those criteria m alternatives (professors) would be ranked or estimated.

The Given

The article discusses the necessity to apply specific methodological principles in FLT for professional purposes due to the increasing interest of learners towards such training. The focus is on the essence of the concept of specialized economic language and on the method of Task-Based Approach. The necessary strategies for its application are also mentioned. The development of the skill for active linguistic performance is promoted mainly by the implementation of minimally structured training situations (authenticity). The constructivist principle of creating polymodular conditions, including the personal experience of the learner so as to stimulate the solution of the given problem are mentioned. For this purpose the specialized content and its peculiarities together with its exact location in the vertical stratification of specialized language are emphasized. The process of working with specialized text and one of the descriptors of CEFR are discussed. When working, the principles of subject-specific aspects are taken into consideration, placing the importance on the quality of teaching materials instead of their quantity, and prioritizing the sistematicity and the orientation of the content over the form.

Quality Evaluation Model

At present, with the popularization of higher education and acceleration of college students every year, colleges and universities are increasing scale. Expansion of the scale for colleges and universities on the one hand, broadens the scope for development, on the other hand it also brings many problems, including the issue of the quality of teaching which is particularly prominent. Owing to the problems existing in the previous system of teaching quality, based on the teaching characteristics, a new multivariate teaching quality evaluation model is set up by means of GM(1,N) theory. And the application processes of the model are illuminated in detail. The model is applied into the evaluation of teaching quality. By analyzing a lot of practical examples, the experiment result indicates that this mathematical model has better appraisal effect than other appraisal model, which can overcome the complexity of traditional evaluation model. Compared with other methods, this method is scientific, simple and operable. And its structure and method will have a bright future.
