偏序关系图在课程设置中的应用

Applying the Partial Order Graph in Curriculum-Design

高等学校是我国培养各种人才的主要基地。随着社会的不断发展,社会越来越需要复合型人才,高校教务部门越来越感觉到课程的设置难以管理。根据大学课程学习的一般规律,提出了一种计算机辅助设计课程学期设置的方法,即平行拓扑排序方法:首先将课程视为顶点,将课程之间的内在联系关系视为偏序关系,得到课程之间的偏序关系图;然后将该方法应用在该偏序关系图上得到了课程设置的先后关系;根据对学生和专家调查问卷得到了一些课程设置的原则,优化了课程的学期设置,方便了教学,有利于学生学习和教务部门的管理。

Universities and colleges are fundamental bases to culture person with ability. With the development of the society, more and more complex type persons of talent are needed; it is more and more difficult for the dean＇s office of universities and colleges to administer the curriculums. According to the study law of undergraduates, a new computer assistant course design method called parallel topological sort algorithm is proposed. Regarding the curriculums as vertices, the inherent relations between the curriculums as the partial order relations, then the partial order graph is obtained. Applying the algorithm that we proposed to the graph, the order of the curriculums is obtained. According to the rule of the design of course and the sequence we get above, one can get the optimized curriculum design, which is benefit to teach for teachers and study for undergraduates and supervise for the dean＇s office.
