Abstract

[Purpose/significance] By analyzing the visualization related courses of the iSchool alliance members, this paper summarizes the situation and characteristics of course settings, to provide inspiration and references for the further improvement of the talent cultivation of LIS in China. [Method/process] This study collected information on 98 courses from 45 iSchool alliance members through the Internet. Through descriptive statistics, content analysis and text analysis, this study analyzed the basic situation, prerequisites, teaching contents, teaching objectives, teaching methods and assessment methods of courses, and summarized the characteristics of course settings. [Result/conclusion] This paper finds there are four characteristics of iSchool visualization course settings:hierarchical course system and targeted teaching objectives; interdisciplinary course contents; flexible teaching methods; comprehensive and reasonable assessment ways. Based on this, this paper puts forward suggestions for the follow-up course construction from five aspects of teaching objectives and course contents, practical teaching, teachers, prerequisite curriculum system, teaching materials and case base.
