学科交叉背景下仿生学通识课教学探索与实践——以神奇的智能仿生世界课程为例

如何有效贯彻学科交叉融合理念、培养新时代复合型人才是当今高校通识教育的重要命题。该文以中山大学通识课神奇的智能仿生世界课程为例,依托所在深圳校区多学科院系群优势及仿生学自带跨学科育人属性,以仿生现象机理、科技前沿、实际应用为切入点,以信息化教学手段为支撑,以特色课程思政为抓手,探索基于主题模块化进阶授课、多驱动导向式教学、体验式仿生设计活动和全流程综合评价体系的通识教育课程改革,致力于培养具有扎实专业素养、开阔跨学科视野及自主源头创新意识的高质量复合型人才。该项目的经验可为相关通识乃至专业课程改革提供借鉴。

It remains an important proposition as to how to effectively implement the concept of interdisciplinary integration and cultivate compound talents of the new era by general knowledge education in contemporary colleges and universities.This paper describes our experience and thoughts on these from the general knowledge course The Wonderful Smart Bionic World in Sun Yatsen University,which was set up leveraging the multi-disciplinary departmental clusters of our Shenzen Campus and the born attributes of interdisciplinary education by"Bionics".Having natural phenomena and underlying mechanisms,scientific and technological frontiers,and practical applications as the pointcuts,taking information-based teaching means as the support,and incorporating special ideological and political education elements as the gripper of thoughts,we explored the advantages of general education curriculum reform that emphasizes thematic modular advanced lessons,multi-driver-oriented teaching,experiential bionic design activities,and full-process comprehensive evaluation,striving to cultivate high-quality compound talents with solid professional qualities,broaden interdisciplinary horizons,and the awareness of independent source innovation.The experience of this project can provide reference for the reform of relevant general education and even professional courses.
