非计算机专业数据库课程教学改革方法探讨

Research on Teaching Improvement of the Database Curriculum for Non-computer Majors

与斯坦福大学、麻省理工学院和国家级精品课程中的数据库课程进行对比分析后,比较了国内外数据库课程现状。针对非计算机专业的数据库课程教学,分析了其数据库课程的特点,总结了非计算机专业数据库课程的现状和差距,探讨了一些教学改革方法,包括针对不同层次学生因材施教、教材选择、基于合作学习模式的实验课程的改进和理论与实践结合的教学方法,并在实际教学中取得了好的效果。

By analyzing the situation and development of current Database Curriculums, including relative curriculums of Standford University, MIT and national core courses, we present the characteristics and shortcomings of these curriculums, which are set for the non--computer majors. Furthermore, considering the combination of theory and practice, some new teaching methods and ideas are introduced to improve the teaching effects of Database Curriculum. These methods and ideas are related to course content, material selection and experiment setting, and have been proved to be effective.
