ABSTRACT
Classroom teaching is one of the most important aspects and links to assure quality in higher education. Although there have been some theoretical discussions and research by Chinese scholars about how to enhance the quality of classroom teaching in higher education, the experimental research of quality as-surance in teaching is rarely seen. Based on an exploration of the teaching-learning methods of the pres-entation model, this article will provide evidence that interactive teaching styles, especially Presentation Teaching Methods, are very efficient in improving the quality of arts classroom teaching in higher educa-tion. It will analyze the quality and quantity of the empirical knowledge, which includes consciously challenging authority, academic research competencies of critical reading, critical writing and some prac-tical abilities in finding, analyzing, solving problems and team work. Finally, it will provide some sugges-tions for quality assurance in classroom teaching in higher education.
