Notice of RetractionImplementing Open-ended Project-Based Instruction in Experiment of University Physics

Abstract

Despite the increasing social demands for senior application-oriented talents, the corresponding training and education seems to be lagging far behind. Drawing on the experience of German project instruction, and our experiences in the mode of open-ended project-based instruction, we propose to implement the open-ended project-based instruction mode into experiment of university physics. Its content, characteristics, significance, as well as practical achievements are clearly demonstrated. We focus our research and analysis on the resources of experiment projects, organization, environment, and effectiveness of the open-ended project-based instruction. It is revealed that the unique characteristics of the open-ended project-based instruction is its open nature, which enables the students to freely and actively select the supervisors, partners, learning environment, as well as high-quality projects. It turns out that this instruction mode has achieved fruitful teaching accomplishments and a favorable social effect.
