3D打印综合实践教学平台建设

Construction of 3D Printing Practical Teaching Platform

3D打印是一种以增材制造为主要特点的新兴产品制造技术,对社会多个行业和领域带来了深刻影响,近些年许多高校逐渐开始研究探索将此技术应用于课程教学中。针对目前普遍存在的教学内容单一、教学时间受限、教学方法落后等问题,基于清华大学基础工业训练中心的3D打印综合实践教学平台,探讨了具体的建设经验,从多样化模型设计、传统和新兴工艺结合、线上数字资源开发、科研项目结合等方面进行了创新。该平台在多门课程的教学实践与学生科创活动中起到了重要的支撑作用,学生的工程思维、创新能力、设计能力和自主学习能力都得到了很好的锻炼和提高。

3D printing is an emerging product manufacturing technology characterized by additive manufacturing,which has a profound impact on multiple industries and fields in society.In recent years,many universities have gradually begun to research and explore the application of this technology in the curriculum teaching.In response to the common problems such as the single teaching content,limited teaching time,and outdated teaching methods,a 3D printing practical teaching platform was constructed in the Fundamental Industry Training Center of Tsinghua University.This paper discusses the construction experience and innovation in the diverse model design,combination of the traditional and emerging technologies,the online digital resource development,and the research project integration.The platform has played an important role in the teaching practice of many courses and students’scientific and technological innovation activities,and students’engineering thinking,innovation ability,design ability and independent learning ability have been well exercised and improved.
