面向新工科信创化的系统分析与设计课程改革

Reform of System Analysis and Design for Information Technology Application Innovation Integrated Emerging Engineering Education

国家“信创”战略与新工科建设对信息技术领域卓越工程人才培育提出了更高要求。为此,西南大学构建了软件工程创新人才培养体系,并打造了“新工科信创化”课程群。系统分析与设计作为其中的核心课程,其课程改革在新型软件工程人才培育中发挥着重要作用。针对课程教学中存在的思政元素融入难、理论实践结合难、高阶能力培养难、学习过程监管难等问题,修改了课程目标以适应“新工科信创化”的要求,打造了融合新案例、新流程、新模式、新技术的“四新课堂”:基于软件定义与信创视角从切身事件以及时事热点中剖析凝练新案例,结合知识点,实现思政自然融入;打造“MOOC—课堂—SPOC—CodeArts”线上线下一体化、课程教学与软件生产一体化的新流程,实现理论学习与工程实践相结合;创设趣味课堂活动与多维评价机制相融合的新模式,激发学生高阶学习动力;研发基于面部表情的情感计算智慧教学辅助系统(iTAS)新技术,针对教学薄弱环节及时进行预警并予以强化。实践结果表明,该课程的OBE课程目标达成度较好,学生的复杂问题求解能力及系统构建综合能力明显提升。

The national strategies on information technology application innovation(ITAI)and emerging engineering education(EEE)have put forward higher requirements to develop information technology engineering talent.To this end,Southwest University has designed a new framework of curricula for innovative software engineering talent education,where a cluster of courses under the background of"ITAI-integrat⁃ed EEE"are provided.As a core course in this cluster,the reform and exploration of system analysis and design play a crucial role in training the new generation of outstanding software engineers.Considering the challenges such as incorporating ideological education(IE)into curricu⁃lum,combining theory with practice,cultivating higher-order abilities,and monitoring the learning process,a new collection of course objec⁃tives that adapts to the"ITAI-integrated EEE"is produced,while a"4-NEWs"(i.e.,new-perspective,new-mode,new-approach,and newtechnique)classroom is created:Based on the perspectives of"software-defined everything"and"ITAI",new case studies are extracted from daily events or current events to drive knowledge dissemination and naturally integrate ideological and political education.A new teaching pro⁃cess of"MOOC-Classroom-SPOC-CodeArts"creates online and offline blended(OOB)teaching as well as an integration of course teaching and software production,thereby merging theoretical learning with practical applications.A new pedagogical mode that integrates fun classroom activities with a multidimensional evaluation mechanism is designed to stimulate students'motivation for higher-order learning.A new tech⁃nique,the facial expressions-based affective computing-enabled intelligent teaching assistant system(iTAS),is developed and applied for tracking and intervening weak points in OOB teaching activities on time.The practical results indicate that the OBE course objectives of this course is quite good,and it has a noticeable impact on enhancing students'comprehensive problem-solving and software construction abilities.
