Research and Practice in the Teaching Reform of the Nonferrous Metallurgy

Abstract

Practical teaching is very important in training innovative and practical abilities of college students. On the basis of nonferrous metallurgy teaching characteristics, practical situation and deficiencies had been analyzed and the teaching reforms in the experiment, practice and design had been proposed. A variety of beneficial attempts have been carried out to strengthen the students engineering consciousness and application ability in the reform practice. Through the reform and practice on the teaching methods, it has reached the aim to cultivate the students and improve the quality of practice teaching.

The Teaching Reform Practice of Curriculum of Steel Quality Inspection Based on Professional Core Competence-oriented for Application-oriented Undergraduate Education

“…If the students work on the fields of the rolled steel quality inspection they need to use some conventional equipment frequently, such as metallurgical microscope, universal testing machine, micro hardness tester, scanning electron microscope and so on, depending on the Material and Metallurgical Engineering Experiment Center of Liaoning Province. Besides, important theoretical knowledge contents in the classroom should be reached synchronously in the laboratory (including steel's chemical component examination, steel's micrographic examination, metallographic phase examination, mechanical property examination, processing property examination, physical property examination, chemical property examination and nondestructive test, 20 studying hours in total, which take up 62.5 percent of the whole studying hours) [3]. For instance, the chapter of metallographic phase examination mainly covers the operating principle of metallurgical microscope, the preparation of metallographic specimen, the metallographic phase micro examination, the testing and ranking of the grain…”
