Abstract

Experiential teaching carries out and implements specific teaching activities on the basis of students’ physical and mental growth, cognitive characteristics, etc. In the cultivation process of engineers, learning, experience and practice are three necessary processes. Engineering experience, as the connecting point of engineering learning and practice, is the central part of general education of engineering undergraduates. To research the effectiveness of experiential teaching method, we used this teaching method in our general engineering education course “The Logic of Failure”. The study investigated 61 students in two classes. There are 26 questions designed to collect their comments on the course. Then we make the statistics of the returned questionnaires. The results showed that experiential teaching method can greatly arouse students’ learning interest and help improve their learning and practical ability.
