Abstract:With the attention to demand for talents and neglecting of talent training ,the higher education result in social dilemma .The contradiction between scientific research and teaching is the key reason for this problem. The basic idea to get out of the social dilemma is that establishing a new normal of thinking, straighten out the logic of development of higher education, correctly handling the relationship between scientific research and teaching, giving priority to improve the quality of talent training.

Abstract:In 2012, WANG Shu won the Pritzker Architecture Prize who was the only one in China to gained the award. This was a sign that the architectural design in China began to get attention and recognition in international. Although many people in China devoted to architectural design and the amount of construction was the first in the world for many years, but few great architectures recognized by international architecture. To solve this problem and enhance the architectural education level, this paper discussed the teaching contents of architectural design course in depth.

Abstract:At present, the innovation made on education by architecture in higher education has become the focus of architectural education field. The key point is still the transition from theoretical imparting to professional practice, which reflects the need of up-to-date architectural education and the conflict between solidified pattern of classroom teaching and multiple techniques demanded by social developing to architects. Except architecture itself, future architects should also consider social issues. This thesis makes an in-depth analysis on the symbiotic relationship between architectural education and architectural professional planning, and the training methods for social attributes of architects.

Abstract:The whiteboard writing teaching method and handwritten projection teaching method in American are introduced. Theoretical and survey comparison with teaching methods commonly used in China were done. The results showed that both the whiteboard writing teaching method and handwritten projection teaching method have the advantage of no dust. the of white board writing teaching method is approved by teachers and students for better show effect than that of blackboard handwriting, while the handwritten projection method isn’t welcomed by students because of show effect. Teachers and students in science and engineering flied tend to writing teaching method, while teachers and students in literature, art, economy, management and law flied tend to multimedia teaching method.

These attempts show that these measures were recognized by the students,and can effectively strengthen the professional competence.

Abstract:Based on the questionnaire survey in College of Civil Engineering of Inner Mongolia University of Technology, this paper compares three kinds of teaching methods：traditional teaching method, multimedia teaching method and a combination teaching method. The data analysis demonstrated that traditional teaching methods, while most widely accepted, prove ineffective. The use of multimedia methods, although to some extent more effective than the traditional methods, also failed to achieve the desired result. A combination of the two methods, however, resulted in more effective teaching than focusing exclusively on a particular teaching method. Additionally, this paper offers some suggestions for reforming about structural mechanics combined with teaching experience.

Abstract:There were many insufficiency of the traditional practice teaching mode of civil engineering which was proceed according to exercise, curriculum design and graduation design, due to the restriction of objective condition such as number of student, funds, tutor deploying and the exercise circumstance. The practice teaching mode of the resolving of architecture model was explored and summarized. The effect and contribution of the segments of the pattern to the civil engineering skills accomplishment was analyzed. The practice teaching mode was easy to operate because of breaking through the restriction of traditional practice teaching mode. It could get preferable practice teaching effect since it could sufficiently mobilize subjective activity of student. It could be helpful to the establishing and intensification of the integral expertise system, and enhance the professional skills accomplishment of student. At the same time, it was helpful to train the ability of exercising, enhance the ability of problem analyzing and solving, cultivate cooperative team spirit..

Abstract:With the increasing development of civil engineering technology and reducing the service performance of structure, experimental research of engineering structure become more and more important. With the development of information technology, lots of equipment and materials are purchased via network in civil engineering structure tests. This mode can be introduced into teaching on structure test of civil engineering. Traditional teaching of structure test of civil engineering mainly includes theory and experiments, students lack of the processes of independent thinking. In this paper, a practical link using the network information platform to purchase experimental materials is proposed. This exploration of autonomous learning of practice link can increase participating and enhance knowledge on structure testing by the network interaction.

Abstract:Model is the bridge connecting ideas and actual architecture.There’s intimate connections between conceptions of architecture design and working models. In the architecture education, it is proved to be effective to enhance the ability of spatial awareness and design communication by using working models. The study bases on the teaching cases, puts forward the point of using working models with proper procedures taking apart complicated architectural concept issues. The logic of space and conformation structure,the expression of material and structures can be trained in this process. The space prototype can be obtained based on comprehension of the design requirements and the model material. The structure and module assists to forming a logic of design ideas and the operation method. Thus the material can be talked over to help space integration. Finally, the working model leads to formal drawings and models.
