  • Abstract
    Programming Language has been a basic course for non-computer specialized students, however, using the traditional teaching method which focuses on knowledge system is difficult to stimulate students´ interest in learning, making teach effects not satisfactory. Based on years of teaching practice, this article discusses about educational reforms of this course ranging from teaching methods, practical teaching to evaluation of teaching. An alternative teaching method based on the teaching content of project organization is introduced as a key point in the article and how to strengthen the practical teaching of the course is also included.
