Abstract

Engineering course design classes generally have long hours, diverse content, and strong integration. These characteristics can lead to issues such as students being unclear about learning objectives, lacking initial motivation, and blindly rushing to complete tasks later on. This paper aims to analyze the staged learning characteristics of students in project-based teaching practices by constructing a progressive learning model for the Mechanical Principles Course Design (MPCD), providing references and basis for implementing project-based teaching in undergraduate practical courses. This attempt to transform the course design from the traditional individual centered teaching mode to a group cooperative learning mode successfully solved the integration problem of teamwork skills and professional training. At the same time, we have effectively applied the theory of progressive learning to practical courses, improved teaching effectiveness, and established a project-based MPCD teaching framework, developing relevant implementation documents and evaluation standards.
