抓住课程特点,提高课堂教学质量——以“工程水文学”为例

Improve the Class-teaching Quality based on the Property of Subject——Taking Engineering Hydrology as an Example

高等教育人才培养方案中的课程各有特点,只有抓住课程特点,精心设计教学内容和教学方法,才能提高课堂教学质量。本文以全国高校水利、水电、交通、环境、资源等学科普遍开设的"工程水文学"课程为例,抓住该课程"内容丰富学时有限"、"实践性强"和"部分内容相似度高"等特点,强调了课前做好总体和细节设计的重要性,提出了结合工程实例授课以培养学生实践能力及巧用类比法授课以提高课时利用率的建议。

Different subjects in college education have different properties,based on which,characteristics of specific subject are essential for teaching plan and teaching method selection,which should also be the foundation for teaching quality improvement.In this study,engineering hydrology was taken as an example to illustrate how to improve the teaching quality based on the property of specific subject.Engineering hydrology is a core subject for many majors such as water conservancy and hydropower,traffic engineering,environmental sciences,natural resource sciences and so on.Main characteristics of this subject are a large amount of information with limited number of classes,combination of theory with practice and partial similarity of teaching contents.Through analysis,it was put forward that general and detailed teaching design before class is necessary.What＇s more,class-teach-ing should be based on engineering example to improve the practical ability of students.Analogy method is an effective way to im-prove class-teaching efficiency.
