Abstract: This paper presents a study on integration of elements of traditional Chinese culture into the course Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics to promote teaching innovation, so as to make sure that the students acquire in-depth understanding of the course. To address the limitations of the traditional teaching methods of overemphasis on theories, the authors suggest introduction of ideological and cultural elements of ancient Chinese philosophical canon in The Scripture of Ethics, The Book of Changes and other classics to help the students build up intuitive understanding of the probability theory from the cultural and philosophical dimensions. Moreover, analysis of concrete cases and innovative teaching methods can also be applied to effective integration of traditional cultural concepts with teaching of the probability theory. This way, content of the course will be enriched, the students' interest stimulated and their ability of handling actual situations consequently enhanced. By discussing challenges facing the aforesaid cross-disciplinary teaching strategy in its implementation, the research suggests possible directions in the future, arguing that this teaching mode is of great significance for developing the students' teaching techniques and increasing their understanding of and respect for their native culture as this new mode can support their overall development.
