Abstract

With the rapid development of internet finance, universities face challenges in constructing "Internet Financial Laws and Regulations" courses, including a lack of systematic content, limited diversity in teaching methods, and a lack of comprehensive evaluation approaches. Through literature review and case studies, this paper conducts a systematic analysis of current course configurations in higher education, revealing areas for improvement in meeting market demands. The findings indicate significant room for enhancement in dynamic content updating, interactive teaching methods, and multi-tiered evaluation systems. Based on these insights, this study proposes a “Dynamic Knowledge Module,” an “Interactive Teaching Framework,” and a “Multi-level Evaluation System Model” to help universities better adapt to the rapid evolution of internet finance. This research not only provides theoretical support for the forward-looking design of course content but also offers specific recommendations for diversifying teaching methods and enriching evaluation approaches. These contributions aim to drive innovation in internet finance law education and provide practical guidance for cultivating high-quality legal professionals suited to the emerging financial environment.
