Engineering Literacy Enlightenment Based on Real Construction Situations: Integrated Teaching Mode Exploration for Introduction to Architecture

Abstract

Aiming at the problems of outdated knowledge system, fragmented subject cognition and insufficient engineering practice of civil engineering students in applied undergraduate colleges, this paper takes the curriculum reform of “Introduction to Architecture” as an example to explore the integrated teaching mode of “teaching-learning-doing-creating” under the background of new engineering. Based on the concept of OBE, this model breaks through the limitations of traditional single-disciplinary teaching. Through the collaborative education of civil engineering, architecture and art design, an interdisciplinary curriculum system combining theoretical cognition and whole process simulation project practice is constructed. By introducing situational learning theory and CDIO concept, students are immersed in real engineering scenarios covering scheme design, structural construction and decoration. Practice has proved that this model effectively alleviates the fragmented learning state of students, greatly improves students’ engineering literacy, interdisciplinary collaboration awareness and ability to solve complex engineering problems, and provides a reference for cultivating compound civil engineering talents.
