加强实践环节重视能力培养——岩相古地理课程改革的初步尝试

DEVELOPMENT OF ABILITIES THROUGH PRACTICE--Reform in Teaching lithofacies-Paleogeography

为了探索如何克服当前学生中存在的“重理论、轻实践”的倾向,以及如何培养和提高学生综合分析和解决实际问题的能力,在石油地质专业岩相古地理课程教学中,我们重视加强实践性教学环节,并相应采取四项措施:(1)改变教学方式,采取室内和野外教学相结合;(2)改变单纯的课堂讲授、开设实验课;(3)通过综合性练习和作业,培养学生综合分析能力;(4)帮助学生做好阶段总结,培养学生综合归纳能力。为保证这些措施的实施和获得预期效果,我们注意精选教学内容、调整体系,安排分量恰当、难度适中的作业,既不加重学生学习负担,又能保证学生生动活泼地学习。实践证明,岩相古地理课程的教学改革,对学生能力的培养和教学质量的提高起到了积极的作用。

This article is dedicated to how to overcome the tendency of 'more attention to theory than to practice' among students and how to develop their abilities to analyse and solve practical problems comprehensively in reforming the course 'Lithof acies-Paleogeography' of petroleum geology speciality. We have tried to strengthen practical links during instruction the following ways; (1) to combine classroom instruction with field practice,-(2)to supplement classroom instruction with laboratory; (3) to develop students' analytical ability through some comprehensive exercises and homework; (4) to develop students' ability to sum up through stagewise summary.
