A problem-based innovative teaching model for the mechatronics specialty
نویسنده
چکیده
The educational goal of the mechatronics specialty is to improve students’ self-learning and research ability, as well as to provide them with sound theoretical foundations and rich practical experience. The PEDC (problem, exploration, discussion, case) innovative inquiry teaching model is proposed in this article. A comparative study of two classes of mechatronics specialty students, forming an experimental and control group, was undertaken. The research results indicate that PEDC teaching can enhance significantly students’ learning interest, their academic results, innovation ability and project capability. Therefore, PEDC teaching can improve the teaching of the mechatronics specialty, and is of great significance in promoting engineering education.
