Practical Teaching Reform of the Measurement and Control Instruments Course under the Background of Industry-Education Integration

Abstract

With the deepening advancement of China's economic transformation and upgrading and the promotion of high-quality industrial development, industry-education integration has become a crucial direction for higher education reform. The Measurement and Control Instruments course, a core course for automation and instrumentation majors, is characterized by strong theoretical foundations, high practical requirements, and close ties with engineering practice. However, current practical teaching of this course commonly suffers from issues such as a disconnect between teaching content and industrial demand, practical platforms lagging behind technological development, and inadequate school-enterprise collaboration mechanisms. Based on the concept of industry-education integration, this paper systematically analyzes the current situation and challenges of practical teaching in the Measurement and Control Instruments course and proposes a practical teaching reform plan centered on "school-enterprise co-construction, project-driven approaches, and virtual-actual integration." The paper elaborates on five aspects: curriculum system restructuring, practical platform construction, teaching model innovation, teaching staff development, and evaluation mechanism reform. It proposes a four-in-one teaching system integrating "theoretical teaching – virtual simulation – experimental verification – engineering training," along with a collaborative education mechanism characterized by "enterprises proposing projects, teachers and students conducting joint research, and transforming results into application." Research indicates that practical teaching reform within the context of industry-education integration can effectively enhance students' engineering practice abilities, innovation capabilities, and professional competencies, providing strong support for cultivating high-quality applied talents capable of meeting the demands of the intelligent manufacturing era.
