中国大陆高等工程教育专业认证的发展历程与展望

中国大陆高等工程教育专业认证经历了热烈的筹备、良好的开局、漫长的探索三个阶段。总体来看,我国大陆地区高等工程教育专业认证发展缓慢。究其原因,主要在于理论研究滞后、顶层设计重心偏移、认证机构缺乏、专业认证与工程师注册制度脱节等。在此基础上,本文展望了中国大陆高等工程教育专业认证的发展趋势。     

通过研究性学习推进教学过程最优化研究

教学过程可分为课堂内的理论教学和课堂外的实践教学,分别实施互动式课堂教学模式和产学研结合的实践教学模式,培养和提高学生独立思考、解决和探索科学研究问题的能力,同时可把教学过程的优化与强化研究性学习有机地联系起来,并结合课堂教学过程,建立专业课程论文制度,培养和提高学生的论文撰写能力及综合素质,是进一步深化教学改革和提高教学效果的一个有益尝试。     

构建高校思想政治理论课新结构

思想政治理论课只有培养学生主体意识,发挥学生主动精神,思想观念、道德规范等才能变成学生的自我认知和道德品质。构建高校思想政治理论课新结构,包括＂引新、激趣＂,＂自学、讨论＂,＂评价、反馈＂,＂总结、迁移＂四个方面,就是要把重视教师的教与重视学生的学有机统一起来,关注人的发展,落实学生的主体性,让思想观念、道德规范变成学生的自我认知和道德品质。

Theo Jansen project in engineering design course and a design example

Objectives of a project-oriented mechanical engineering course, Engineering Design, were achieved through a design project, where students designed, built and demonstrated an extreme version of a basic Theo Jansen device. Through this project, junior students in the University of Louisiana fully developed the capability of applying mathematic and kinematic knowledge in the analysis and design of mechanisms. Students also developed oral and written communication skills, which would be used in design environments, through the presentation of results in both oral and written forms. An assessment of the design project indicated that effective teaching and learning spread through the semester, with the junior students acting as project managers and experiencing design practices. An example of a student-designed Theo Jansen device is presented in this paper to show the study results achieved by the students.     

A comparison of online versus traditional student end‐of‐course critiques in resident courses

This study outlines the intraclass differences between online and traditional student end‐of‐course critiques (EOCCs) only in the context of resident courses. Previous research into these differences appears limited to studies that compare entire classes rather than studies within any given class. Hypotheses are stated that the administration method has an effect on: how students will rate EOCCs, EOCC response rates, and, the detail level, favourability level and number of EOCC comments. In this field experiment, students in resident business courses at a large university comprised the sample. Individuals from within each class were randomly assigned either to a control group that completed a traditional paper‐based EOCC or to an experimental group that completed a similar EOCC online. Comments were coded with regard to the level of detail, favourability and total number of comments. Analysis of variance was used to compare the two groups with regard to ratings, comments and response rates. Online EOCCs had lower response rates, lower overall ratings, but more detailed comments. The methodology had no significant effect on the number or favourability level of comments.

高校课程大纲的功能和要件:兼论我国大学课程大纲制度之现状

在高等教育发达的国家和地区,课程大纲是高校教师开课之初必须向选课学生提供的文件。本文在讨论高校课程大纲的功能和基本内容后,报告了我国两所重点高校相关调查结果。对N大学社会科学本科生专业课课程大纲使用情况的调查表明,该校教学中缺乏课程大纲制度和文化,严重影响了本科生和研究生的教育质量。对N和X大学部分教师的调查表明,90%受访教师认为大多数中国高校教师提供的课程大纲不符合国际规范。中国大学课程大纲现状,是其整体教师队伍尚处于前职业阶段的写照。
