开放式土工实验的实践与思考

针对目前土工实验教学内容和教学方法陈旧，演示型、单一型实验偏多，综合型、设计型实验偏少，理论教学与实验脱节以及实验设备大量闲置的现象。从倡导创新及个性化教育，理论教学与工程能力的培养相结合，激发学生的学习兴趣为出发点，提出了开放式土工实验教学模式。新模式在培养学生创新能力，提高教师综合素质，规范实验教学及实验中心管理上取得了好的效果。

Practice and Reflection of the Open Soil Mechanics Experiment

At present is that both the content and the method of the soil Mechanics experiment teacnmg are out - dated, and most of the experiments are simply demonstrative rather than comprehensive design - based ones. Furthermore, the theoretical teaching tends to be separate from carrying out experiments so that plenty of experi- mental equipments lie idle. Aimed at bringing forth a new individual teaching method, combining the theoretical teaching with developing students＇ engineering ability, and stimulating students＇ study interest, this paper proposes a comprehensive and open model of soil mechanics experiment teaching. It proves that this new model is effective not only in cultivating students＇ creative ability, enhancing teachers＇ overall quality but also in standardizing experiment teaching and the management of experiment centers.
