土力学课堂和实验教学改革的探索与实践

Exploration and practice on the classroom and experimental teaching reform of soil mechanics

为提高土力学课程的教学质量及土木工程专业的人才培养质量,对土力学课堂和实验教学改革进行了探索与实践。课堂教学改革主要包括:开展RBL、CBL及TBL与PBL结合的教学方法和模式探索,并积极利用雨课堂等智慧教学方式,激发学生的学习兴趣,提高课堂教学质量;广泛阅读土力学教材和相关书籍,不断提高教师的专业素质,使课程常讲常新;充分利用已有在线课程资源,积极推进基于“互联网+”的线上线下混合式教学和翻转课堂教学改革;介绍土力学专业领域的国内外杰出人物和土力学著名工程案例,有机地将思政元素融入土力学教学。实验教学改革主要包括:将启发式与互动式教学模式、研究性思维、OBE教育理念、大国工匠精神等引入实验教学;在实验课程之前,让学生观看土力学在线开放课程的相关实验视频,提高实验教学效果;充分利用国家虚拟仿真实验教学项目共享平台上的虚拟仿真实验开展线上实验教学。通过土力学课程教学改革,努力培养专业水平高、创新能力强、社会责任心强的全方位复合型土木工程人才。

In order to improve the teaching quality of soil mechanics course and the talent training quality of civil engineering specialty,some explorations and practices on the classroom and experimental teaching reform of soil mechanics were carried out.The main classroom teaching reforms are as follows:The explorations of teaching method and mode of research-based learning,case-based learning,and team-based learning combined with problem-based learning were carried out,and the intelligent teaching tools such as rain classroom were used to arouse students’learning interest and improve the quality of classroom teaching;In order to frequently update contents of the course,it is necessary to continually improve our professional ability by extensively reading the textbooks and related books of soil mechanics;The available online course resources were fully utilized,and online and offline mixed teaching reform and flipped classroom teaching reform based on internet+were actively promoted;The ideological and political elements were effectively integrated into the teaching of soil mechanics by introducing distinguished domestic and foreign persons in the field of soil mechanics and famous engineering cases of soil mechanics,and enhancing the knowledge and principle of soil mechanics as general philosophical principles.The main experimental teaching reforms are as follows:The heuristic and interactive teaching mode,research-based thinking,outcomes-based education concept and great country craftsman spirit were introduced into experimental teaching;In order to enhance the effect of experimental teaching,the students were required to watch the relevant experimental videos of online open courses of soil mechanics experiment before the experimental courses;The online experimental teaching was carried out by utilizing the relevant virtual simulation experiments on the national virtual simulation experiment teaching project sharing platform.With the teaching reform of soil mechanics course,make effort to cultivate comprehensive compound civil engineering talents with high professional level,strong innovation ability,and strong sense of social responsibility.
