Fusion of Research Project in Undergraduate Subject Course Teaching: The Case of South China University of Technology

Abstract

With the promotion and accomplishment of the plan of "Emerging Engineering Education" construction issued by the Ministry of Education of China, the South China University of Technology (SCUT) has carried out the "exploratory experiments" teaching project to support the reform of practical teaching contents, which fuse the contents of research project into the undergraduate subject course teaching. It is helpful to develop students' practical and creative ability by applying basic knowledge to solve scientific research problems. Supported by this project, the course of computer graphics has implemented such teaching reform and exploration, which divide the contents of the research project undertaken by teachers into the contents of experimental teaching, and students involved this teaching reform has assessments of different aspects on the teaching effect. This paper thoroughly addresses the issues exposed in the actual teaching in the course of computer graphics, and then describes the specific content fusion of research into course teaching and also the teaching implementation. According to the statistics of students' teaching feedback, the fusion of research project in the course teaching has achieved good effect.
