Abstract
In response to the educational needs in promoting development in Tibet, this paper proposes a set of educational path milestones to assist development in Tibet, including essential factors such as the building of a blended teaching environment, organization of teaching teams, development of learning contents and resources, and collection of educational tools. With the completion of the primary path structure, teaching will be carried out in three stages: work mobilization, teacher training, and classroom teaching. The effectiveness of the path has been proven in practice. The cloud classroom system of the Open University of China (OUC) offers stable performance with smooth video communication. The teaching team is diversified in composition with a rational division of labor and close coordination. The learning contents are cutting-edge in subject selection, easily arousing the interest of teachers and students and encouraging participation in the training and giving easy access to the rich learning contents. The teaching tools are guaranteed to be in place.
