Multi-method integrated experimental teaching reform of a programming course based on the OBE-CDIO model under the background of engineering education

Under the background of engineering education professional certification, the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) education concept of “output-oriented” has been paid more and more attention. The traditional experimental teaching of programming course often focuses on the teaching of theoretical knowledge, and lacks the cultivation of students’ practical ability and innovative spirit. Engineering education puts forward new requirements for the teaching mode of program design course. The experimental teaching of programming courses requires further reform and innovation to cultivate high-quality technical engineering talents with good social responsibility, teamwork ability, and innovative thinking ability. Guided by the theory of engineering education combined with the educational philosophy of Conceive–Design–Implement–Operate (CDIO) and OBE, this paper carried out the reform of experimental teaching of programming course among students majoring in computer science and technology and information security. This teaching reform aimed to better cultivate students’ practical ability, innovation ability, and knowledge-integrated application ability, considering the course concept, course design, course implementation, and course operation, and exploring the practice of teaching process reconfiguration, teaching content organization, and teaching method integration. This multi-integration experimental teaching reform was found to fully mobilize students’ learning enthusiasm, tap into students’ potential, greatly improve students’ comprehensive practical ability, effectively achieve course goals, and lay a solid foundation for subsequent professional course learning. This teaching mode has been practically applied in current experimental teaching and is widely recognized by students, providing a reference for improving teaching quality.

Exploration and practice of innovative teaching of molecular biology experiment course under the context of new agricultural science

The development of new agricultural science is a new idea and a new measure that aims to deepen the reform of higher education in agriculture and forestry for the development of new agriculture, new countryside, new farmers and new ecosystem. It is therefore essential for the current undergraduate experimental teaching reform to timely introduce new technologies and new methods used in the development of agriculture and forestry industry into the experimental course teaching, and promote the integration of professional education with innovation and entrepreneurship education, according to the requirements of the new agricultural science. In view of this, the exploration and practice of molecular biology experiment course was carried out from the perspective of experimental projects, teaching modes and evaluation methods, according to the teaching requirements and characteristics of molecular biology experiment and teachers' scientific research achievements. The results showed that this reform greatly improved the students' comprehensive quality and innovation ability and may facilitate the innovation experiment teaching of other courses.

Exploration of Open Experimental Teaching Mode Based on "Robot Platform"

The development of the robotics industry has put higher demands on the training of scientific and technological talent. Courses related to robotics platforms are characterized by the cross-integration of multiple courses, strong practical requirements, and tight integration with the industry. By analyzing the main problems existing in current experimental teaching, this paper designs an "open experimental teaching mode integrating virtuality and reality". The teaching model integrates teaching, scientific research and competition to build a "trinity and mutual promotion" robot experimental teaching platform, which can complete the teaching task and promote the common progress of scientific research and competition. In the teaching process, cloud technology, micro-classroom, flipped classroom and other modern technological means are used to organically combine teachers, students and teaching resources together, forming a learning mode of immersion feeling, interactive linkage and independent exploration, breaking through the limitations of traditional experimental teaching mode and promoting the reform of experimental teaching methods. This model of teaching can meet the development needs of students at different levels and directions, and provide precise guidance and assistance for the individualized development of students. A teaching platform that integrates scientific research and teaching, competition and teaching has been established to provide students with a way to apply theoretical knowledge and to exercise students' ability to solve practical problems. The combination of online and offline teaching methods enables teachers to understand student knowledge in a timely manner and provide instruction to students whenever and wherever they are. This teaching model can effectively promote the improvement of the practical innovation capabilities of smart manufacturing students, and has a radiating effect on the generalization and application of different specialties.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Computation of Benzodithienothiadiazole-based Small Molecular Fragments (DT-BTD)

It can broaden their knowledge and cultivate the ability to independently use modern instrumental analysis methods.

Discussion of the reform of pathophysiological experimental teaching

The theories of pathophysiology come from experimental research, and experimental teaching is an important part of pathophysiology course. Experimental teaching can cultivate the abilities of independent thinking and comprehensive analysis in students, improve their practical skills, and enhance their understanding and application of theoretical knowledge. However, teaching reform should be carried out due to the drawbacks of current pathophysiological experimental teaching. With the teaching idea centered on learning, the quality of pathophysiological experimental teaching can be enhanced by rational arrangement of experimental courses, optimization of teaching contents, and comprehensive application of various teaching models, so as to effectively improve the level of theoretical knowledge and comprehensive practical ability among students. Key words: Pathophysiology; Experimental teaching; Teaching reform; Scientific research thinking

Research of Information Experimental Course Group and Design of Comprehensive Experimental Platform Based on Cloud Computing

Under the new situation, the information experimental course group has become an important professional course group in the information specialty of universities, but the traditional experimental teaching mode and system cannot meet the needs of the construction of the experimental course group in the new environment.
