ABSTRACT

Under the background of engineering education certification and education internationalization, bilingual teaching for professional courses is very important to improve students’ international communication abilities and obtain international education certification in professional fields. The construction of bilingual textbooks is a prerequisite for bilingual teaching. This paper introduces the general requirements followed in the construction of bilingual textbooks, such as the idea of outcome-based education (OBE), the establishment of correct ideological and political ideas, a reasonable combination with online teaching resources, and innovative localization of original English textbooks. Based on the above principles, the chapters are rearranged in the bilingual textbook for the introduction to traffic engineering. According to the course characteristics of the introduction to traffic engineering, the way to implement the OBE concept, ideological and political education, and an open bilingual teaching system in the bilingual textbook construction are discussed. All these provide valuable references for the construction of bilingual textbooks for similar professional courses.
