中美高校工程学习模式比较研究——以富兰克林·欧林工学院和粤港机器人联合学院为例

工程学习模式是为学习共同体创造有意义的学习经历,为智能信息时代培养工程科技创新创业人才而构建的工科学习活动结构。高校知识生产模式和学习科学理论,共同构成工程学习模式的理论基础,因此,以富兰克林·欧林工学院和粤港机器人联合学院为研究对象,基于学习生态系统视域,开展工程学习模式的系统性研究。通过对比中美工程教育模式的异同,发现工程学习模式的逻辑起点在于多学科交叉、产学研融合和知行创统一。借鉴欧林工学院工程教育模式,提出促进中国新工科学习模式可持续发展的新策略,以期为新工科建设提供理论指导和实践借鉴。

Comparative study of engineering learning modes in Chinese and American universities: A case study of Olin College of Engineering and Robotics Union Academy Guangdong-Hong Kong

The engineering learning mode is a structured learning activity created for learning communities to provide meaningful learning experiences and to cultivate engineering and technology innovation and entrepreneurship talents for the intelligent information era. The knowledge production mode and learning science theory of universities jointly constitute the theoretical basis of the engineering learning mode. Therefore, based on the perspective of the learning ecosystem, a systematic study of the engineering learning mode was conducted, taking Olin College of Engineering and Robotics Union Academy Guangdong-Hong Kong as the objects of study. By comparing the similarities and differences between the engineering education modes in China and the United States, it was found that the logical starting points of the engineering learning mode lies in interdisciplinary integration, industry-university-research integration, and the unification of knowledge and practice. Drawing on the engineering education mode of Olin College, new strategies were proposed to promote the sustainable development of the new engineering learning mode in China to provide theoretical guidance and practical reference for the construction of new engineering disciplines.
