学生视角下高校土木工程专业PBL教学模式改革思考

Thoughts on PBL teaching reform in civil engineering from the perspective of students

课堂教学是国内高校的主要教学形式之一。然而教师“一言堂”、学生被动听讲的传统课堂教学模式呈现一些明显的弊端,直接或间接导致学生课堂学习效果难以得到保证,学生学习缺乏主动性、学习兴趣与创新思维无法得到激发、对课堂内容理解不够深入、对知识的掌握也不够牢固等。文章提出,高校可采取一种符合学生内在需求的教学模式,即以问题为导向(PBL)的教学模式,通过创设由实际问题驱动学生求知的情境和氛围,提高学生自主学习的兴趣和动力。在土木工程专业PBL教学模式中,教师需要对“问题”进行合理的设计,使之符合学生的求学动机以及个人发展的需求;采取一定的课堂教学策略,调动学生参与课堂互动的积极性。

Classroom teaching is one of the main forms of teaching in domestic colleges and universities.However,the traditional classroom teaching pattern,where teachers give lectures throughout while students keep listening passively,has led to some visible problems.Under its directly or indirectly influence,the learning effect is difficult to guarantee,students are lack of initiative on learning,their learning interest and creative thinking are failure to aroused,their understanding of classroom content is not deep enough,and the knowledge is not firmly grasped.This paper proposes that colleges and universities can adopt a teaching pattern that meets the students’internal needs,that is,problem-based learning(PBL)pedagogy.By creating a situation and atmosphere driven by practical problems,students’interest and motivation in learning can be improved.When implementing PBL teaching model in the class of civil engineering,college teachers are supposed to design appropriate problems which satisfy undergraduates’motivation to study and their development needs.Some teaching strategies are also needed to motivate students to participate in the class actively.
