摘要
批判性思维是我国提倡培养的创新型工程师应具备的基本素质,但其在我国目前的工程教育教学中并未得到应有的重视。本文结合四年来在华中科技大学启明学院"种子班"所进行的批判性思维教育的课程实践,阐述工程教育中批判性思维课程在教学内容上应贯彻求真、公正、开放、反思的精神原则;在教学方法上注重对学生主体的自我构建,激发学生的主动、互动和创新意识;在评价体系上采用灵活考核、能力为主的方式;在教材上实现本土化,并力求和工程实践更紧密结合。笔者认为,这样的教育明显有助于学生摆脱传统的思维定式和知识框架,产生独立思考、推陈出新、严密审慎、敢于竞争和自主解决问题的能力。
It is currently advocated in China that critical thinking is the basic quality and ability that innovative engineers should have, but in our current engineering education, it has not been given due attention. In this paper, four years＇ critical thinking training carried out by the practice of education pro- grams for the ＂seed class＂ at the Huazhong University of Qiming College has explained critical thinking in engineering education. When it comes to teaching and learning content, it should follow the spirit of the principles like truth, justice, openness, and reflection. When it comes to teaching meth- ods, it should focus on the students＇ self-construction, as well as stimulate students＇ awareness of initiative, interaction and innovation. When it comes to the evaluation system, it should take on a flexible assessment and competency-based approach. Besides, we should seek localization in materials and seek a closer combination with engineering practice. We believe that this kind of education is to help students get rid of the traditional mindset and knowledge framework, resulting in independent thinking, innovation, rigorous care, courage to compete and independent problem-solving skills.
