探讨发展空间思维的现代工程图学教育

Discussion on Modern Engineering Graphics Education Developing Spatial Thinking

从认知心理学观点出发，对发展空间思维的工程图学教育研究进行了探讨。根据对解决空间几何问题时空间思维特征分析，强调指出大脑加工空间表象的技能性因素，对发展该思维有着重要作用。指出图学教育工作的意义不仅在于讲授图学概念、图示技能，还是一项开发学生的这种“非语言”智力的策划与实施工作。提出了几点教学法以促使有效提高学生的空间想象力。

The paper Inquires engineering graphics education developing spatial thinking from view of cognition psychology and points out emphatically that the spatial skills which cerebrum processes spatial images play an important part in developing spatial thinking according to analysing characteristics of spatial thinking in solving spatial geometry problems. It points out that the sense of graphics education work is not only teaching graphics concepts and drawing skills but also a work of scheme and enforcement in student's 'not language' intellectual development. Teaching methods to spur improving effectively spatial thinking ability of students are put forward.
