The content of soil mechanics is divided into three modules, which changes the traditional soil mechanics teaching status of unified syllabus, unified content and unified teaching mode. The different syllabus of different modules is made for the students with different mechanics level. The teacher can choose different teaching content of different module according to the principle of differential treatment in education. This method can mobilize the students’learning enthusiasm, cultivate the students’interest in learning, help the students to master the core content of soil mechanics, enhance the students’independent thinking ?and engineering practice ability. The implementation results show that the measures of teaching reformation suggested in this article are reasonable and effective.
