工程类专业概论课程教学改革的探索与实践

Teaching Reform and Practice of Introduction Curriculum on Engineering Specialty

专业概论课程是专业课程学习的"导航标",然而,工程类专业概论课程往往具有口径大、内容广、跳跃快、综合性强等特点,且受课时压缩的限制,实现其科学合理教学至关重要。本文以城市水工程概论课程为例,结合"知识传授"和"定向提问—学生探究—案例展现"的教学模式,探索专业概论课程的适宜教学模式。结果发现:"知识传授"和"定向提问—学生探究—案例展现"相结合的模式注重师生之间的"自我建构"和"团队构建",这不仅有利于帮助学生掌握专业知识,提升学生专业学习的能力,而且能促进专业知识结构的不断更新和完善;该模式是让学生在掌握基本概念的基础上发挥其主观能动性,使得学生在师生间讨论氛围中吸收和深化专业知识;该模式更有利于激发学生的专业兴趣,反映和吸收本学科领域的最新研究成果,体现学科交叉的特点,适宜于工程类专业概论课程的学习。相结合的教学模式有利于完善学生的知识结构,以实现教学质量提高与人才培养模式相适应的需求。

Specialty introduction curriculum is the ＂navigation mark＂ of specialty courses study. However,specialty introduction curriculum has characteristics of large caliber,wide content and characteristics of jumping fast, comprehensive,it is for the scientific and reasonable teaching especially in restrictions of class time. Based on the curriculum of introduction to urban water project as an example,it combined with the ＂knowledge-transference＂ and ＂directed questions-explore-case show＂ explore the suitable teaching mode. Results indicated that： （i） combination mode of ＂knowledge-transference＂ and ＂directed questions-explore-case show＂ focus on ＂self-construction＂ and ＂team construction＂,it is not only beneficial to help students to master professional knowledge and improve students＇ learning ability,but also can promote constantly the updating and improvement of professional knowledge structure. （ii） This pattern is on the basis of the students master the basic concepts,to play their subjective initiative. It can realize the absorption of knowledge under discuss atmosphere between teachers and students. （iii） This pattern is more advantageous to arouse students＇ interest in professional,reflect and absorb the latest research achievements,and embody the characteristics of inter-disciplinarity,it is suitable for the teaching of introduction curriculum on engineering specialty.
