“线性代数”教学改革的思考与实践

Reflection and Practice on Teaching Reform of Linear Algebra

“线性代数”是大学数学中的一门重要课程,具有广泛的实际应用背景。“线性代数”主要面向非数学专业学生开设,其主要特点是概念较抽象、定理较复杂且计算较烦琐,学生在学习时感觉枯燥与困难。为了提升“线性代数”课程的趣味性,在教学过程中可以引入混合式教学模式、融入数学史及采用数形结合的教学方法,提升学生的学习积极性,提高学生的学习效率。

Linear Algebra is an important course for university mathematics, which has extensively practical application backgrounds. Linear Algebra is mainly a course for students who are not majoring in mathematics. Its main characteristics are abstract concepts, complex theorems and complicated calculations. As a result, students feel it boring and difficult to learn. In order to improve the interestingness of Linear Algebra, some reforms have been taken in the teaching process, which are mainly stated from the following perspectives: introducing the mixed teaching mode, integrating the history of mathematics and using the method of combing numbers and shapes.Some practical examples have also been listed to illustrate that the above reforms can largely improve the students’ learning efficiency. Through teaching practice, teaching reform is of great help to improve students’ learning enthusiasm and their learning efficiency.
