    Abstract:

    Cambridge University and Oxford University have been implementing their distinctive educational pattern of collegiate system. Two types of parallel school or college, one for teaching, research, social services, science and technology development and other acedemic activities, named “school”, or “faculty” or “department” and the other for undergradautes’ educational activities and talent training, named “college”, are established in university. Colleges are responsible for enrolling students who major in different specialties and offer the students who live and study in the same college academic guidance and life coaching. Simultaneously employed in a certain college, the majority of course’s staff in a school/department have dual attributes, tutoring small-classed undergraduates and guiding both their life and academic activities. This educational pattern offers undergraduates of different specialties and backgrounds a growing environment of mutual communiciation and learning, builds a strong bond between course’s staff and students by getting involved in their students’ study and offering them comprehensive guidances in the course of their development, and establishes a talent training platform based on human-orientedness, persoanlized instruction and individuality development. The connotation of the educational pattern of collegiate system is just the core value needed to be remodelled and solidified in the higher education reform and construction in our country.
