“地球化学多元统计分析”课程教学探讨

＂地球化学多元统计分析＂课程是地球化学专业本科生的主干课程,旨在培养学生利用多元统计分析的方法解决实际地球化学科研问题。本文在阐述中国地质大学（北京）＂地球化学多元统计分析＂课程发展历史的基础上,分析了该课程的教学内容及其逻辑关系。教学方法可采用基本原理讲解、实例软件演示、课堂演讲解决科研问题相结合。实例应用可以培养学生独立解决地球化学科研问题的能力。

Study on Teaching the Course of Multivariate Statistics in Geochemistry

Multivariate statistics in geochemistry is an important course for bachelors majored on geochemistry.This course aims using multivariate statistical methods at resolving scientific problems in geochemistry and earth sciences for students.The development history of this course in China University of Geosciences was depicted.The course contents were discussed and arranged logically for an easy learning.The teaching methods over the past years were presented and discussed.The combination of basic principle analysis,software presentation on calculation steps,and scientific lecture on geochemical problem solving is a useful teaching method.The ability of students to solve geochemical problems on multivariate statistical methods can be enhanced clearly on case studies.
