Abstract

The relationship between teaching and research in the modern university is of international concern. A strong teaching and research nexus will enhance the quality of university teaching and research, enhance the quality of research by allowing the cross fertilisation of ideas and learning between academics, and deliver potential benefits to students and staff. In this study, we tried to integrate teaching and research through a graduate course teaching practice in terms of course content design and pedagogy. The course profile was completed, including of objectives, content, class activities and assessment. In each aspect, research was integrated to cultivate students’ various abilities and skills. Through practice, the course was improved and commented positively.
