工科基础实验课考试“全程化”探索

On Reform of the Examination Method of Basic Experiment Course in Higher Engineering Education

针对以往高校工科基础实验课程学生课业考试注重最后结果,忽视学生学习过程评价,缺乏对学生全面综合能力考核的弊端,本文以"电路与电子技术实验"课程考试为案例,提出并实施了"全程化"考试方法改革,即整个教学活动中分阶段评定学生课业成绩,动态跟踪学生的学习成就,将学生课业评价从单次的几个小时扩展到整个学习过程;在期末考试中,推出了"菜单式"选项,让学生根据自己的学习特点选择考试类型,使考试不仅能测度和甄别学生最终的学习结果,也能帮助他们及时了解自己的学习状况,进而引导他们有效地学习。本案例全面总结了"全程化"考试的设计及实施过程并对相关问题进行了讨论,以期为高校开展实践类课程考试改革提供参考和借鉴。

Since traditional examination designed for basic experimental courses in higher engineering education over-emphasizes the results and neglects student process evaluation, it is hard to assess student comprehensive competence. Taking the ＂Circuits and electronics technology experiment＂ Course as an example, this article intends to put forward and implement the Process-oriented exam method in which formative assessment of student performance is given. What＇s more, students could also choose exam types according to their own learning styles. Thus the exam could not only evaluate final outcome of student learning but also help them understand their learning situation in time and study more effectively. This study summarizes the design and order to provide information and reference for implementation of the Process-oriented exam method in the reform of practical courses in universities.
