高校环境设计专业“计算机辅助设计”课程改革

Reform of“Computer-aided Design”course in environmental design majors at higher education institutions

“计算机辅助设计”是环境设计专业实践课程之一,是将抽象创意思维转换为具象设计表达的重要媒介。然而,教学实践中出现了课程系统关联度低、软件学习入门门槛高、采用满堂灌的传统课堂教学方法、缺少实际项目的介入、缺少合理的评价指标等问题。文章对当下环境设计专业课程目标展开详细的分析与探索,提出了“夯实基础,课程联动”的课程框架创新方法,并提出了设计难度适中的课程目标、重视软件逻辑培养、采用信息化教学、项目目标驱动学习、规范评价指标等教学方法改革措施,有助于夯实学生的设计软件基础,激发学生的学习兴趣,也可以为国内高等院校环境设计专业“计算机辅助设计”课程提供参考。

“Computer-aided Design”is one of the practical courses in environmental design majors,which is an important medium for transforming abstract creative thinking into concrete design expression.However,in teaching practice,there have been problems such as low relevance of the curriculum system,high entry barriers to software learning,traditional classroom teaching methods that are filled with lectures,lack of intervention in practical projects,and a lack of reasonable evaluation indicators.This paper provides a detailed analysis and exploration of the current curriculum objectives in the field of environmental design majors,proposes an innovative method for the curriculum framework of“strengthening the foundation and linking the courses”,and proposes reform measures for teaching methods such as setting moderately difficult curriculum objectives,emphasizing software logic cultivation,adopting information-based teaching,driven learning by project goal,and standardizing evaluation indicators.This helps to strengthen students’design software foundation,stimulate their learning interest,and also provides reference for the“Computer-aided Design”course in environmental design majors in domestic higher education institutions.
