Abstract

Power plant courses in colleges and universities are core courses for majors such as Flight Technology, Civil Aviation Maintenance Engineering, Marine Engineering, and Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering. Their teaching quality directly affects the cultivation of high-quality technical talents in the industry. Aiming at the common problems existing in the traditional teaching of these two types of courses, such as abstract and incomprehensive theories, limited practical resources, lack of ideological and political elements, and single assessment methods, this paper puts forward reform strategies from five dimensions: teaching methods, content reconstruction, practical system, integration of ideological and political education, and assessment mechanism. It is combined with the developmental need of the industry and the innovation trend of educational technology. Specifically, it solves the teaching problems of complex equipment through virtual-real integration technology, reconstructs the course content guided by industry needs, strengthens practical capabilities relying on the “integration of theory and practice” and “integration of competition and teaching”, explores ideological and political elements to realize value guidance, and establishes a process-oriented and competence-based assessment system. Teaching practice shows that after the reform, students’ understanding of the structure and principle of power plants has been significantly improved, their practical operation skills and professional literacy have been remarkably enhanced, which provides a reference model for the teaching of similar engineering and technical courses.
