ABSTRACT

Mechanical engineering majors, as typical majors in applied undergraduate universities, have unique advantages in curriculum innovation and construction due to their strong specialization and practical operability. By analyzing the pain points and issues of mechanical principle courses for students majoring in mechanical engineering at present, and through long-term planning by the teaching team, an innovative practical education system for mechanical principle courses has been constructed and put into practice. Specifically, it includes creating an innovative teaching model for mechanical principles courses that is student-centered, teacher led, and connects the first, second, and third classrooms. Complex knowledge points in the course are introduced and decomposed through practical engineering cases; The implementation of the course is based on solving practical engineering problems, allowing students to have a clear understanding of the evolution process of institutional machinery and cultivating their practical application ability to solve complex engineering problems; Build an online video resource library for prerequisite courses related to this course, and require students to complete self-directed learning and pass relevant tests through selection by the course instructor, inspiring students to enhance their internal drive for self-improvement; Student works with practical significance in the course learning process, through continuous improvement, encourage students to participate in subject competitions, and systematically enhance the ability of mechanical engineering majors in applied undergraduate universities to apply interdisciplinary knowledge to solve complex engineering problems. At the same time, ideological and political education, innovation and entrepreneurship education, and mechanical principles courses are closely integrated, and salt dissolves in water.
