以参加"高教杯"成图竞赛为契机,对如何通过学科竞赛促进桥梁工程课程教学改革进行了研究。分析了全国大学生"高教杯"成图竞赛的特点,从教学模式、教材选择和实验室建设方面剖析了目前桥梁工程课程存在的问题,提出了媒体教学和传统教学相结合、注重与相关专业知识的衔接、设置教学课程互动环节、参加模型参观、开展施工图研读和建立开放式实验室等桥梁工程课程改革的具体措施。实践表明:课程教学模式的改革对培养学生学习兴趣,提升学生的创新实践能力具有重要意义。

Based on the experience of "Higher Education Cup" competition, we analyzed the methods of using discipline competition to promote teaching reform on bridge engineering course. Characteristics of "Higher Education Cup" competition were introduced. The existing problems of bridge engineering courses were analyzed from aspects of teaching mode, teaching material selection and laboratory construction. Specific measures of bridge engineering course reform were proposed including the combination of media teaching and traditional teaching, focusing on the connection between relevant professional knowledge, setting up interactive links of the teaching course, participating in the model, developing the construction plan and establishing the open laboratory. The practice shows that the reform of the course teaching mode can promote students' learning interest and improve their innovative practical ability.
