Abstract

Engineering Geology is a mandatory course for undergraduates majoring in civil engineering at colleges and universities, where much of the knowledge is inherently abstract. The teaching methods employed by instructors play a crucial role in helping students understand the course material. This study highlighted several effective visual teaching methods that facilitate students' comprehension of abstract geological concepts. It specifically discussed various visual teaching methods, including classroom object diagrams, classroom video playback, and field geological practices. Visual teaching methods for different slope models, tunnel models, and fractured rock mass models were developed using numerical software. An online questionnaire survey was conducted to assess the acceptance of these methods among second-year undergraduates. The results indicated that the combined effect of these methods was most favorable. Therefore, this visual teaching strategy holds promise for broader application in engineering geology education.

可视化教学在工程地质中的应用

工程地质学是高校土木工程专业本科生的必修课，其中很多知识本质上是抽象的。教师使用的教学方法在帮助学生理解课程材料方面起着至关重要的作用。本研究强调了几种有效的可视化教学方法，以促进学生对抽象地质概念的理解。具体讨论了课堂实物图、课堂视频播放、野外地质实践等多种可视化教学方法。利用数值软件开发了不同边坡模型、隧道模型和裂隙岩体模型的可视化教学方法。我们进行了一项在线问卷调查来评估二年级本科生对这些方法的接受程度。结果表明，这几种方法联合使用效果较好。因此，这种可视化教学策略在工程地质教学中具有广阔的应用前景。

期刊介绍： Computer Applications in Engineering Education provides a forum for publishing peer-reviewed timely information on the innovative uses of computers, Internet, and software tools in engineering education. Besides new courses and software tools, the CAE journal covers areas that support the integration of technology-based modules in the engineering curriculum and promotes discussion of the assessment and dissemination issues associated with these new implementation methods.
