Practice and Research on Group Teaching in Agricultural Application-oriented Universities

Abstract

Agricultural application-oriented colleges and universities often have great differences in the composition of students and uneven learning ability. The traditional classroom teaching mode dominated by teachers leads to low attendance and rise rate of students. How to give full play to students' enthusiasm and initiative and what teaching methods can improve the quality and effect of teaching are urgent problems to be solved. Combined with the author's teaching practice in agronomy related majors, this paper intends to carry out group teaching in the teaching of different courses such as subject basic courses, professional courses and practical courses, and use specific cases to illustrate the four aspects of curriculum design, group basis, project driven group teaching implementation and how to evaluate the effect of group teaching. The results show that group teaching has changed the situation that only teachers teach, mobilized students to actively participate, promoted the cognition, digestion, mastery and absorption of knowledge and skills in professional practice and independent thinking through division of labor and cooperation within groups and competition and answer between groups, and accumulated practical experience for future graduation design and future work, It is conducive to promoting the all-round development of students' comprehensive quality. Through the research of this project, we explore a set of scientific and effective group teaching methods for undergraduate agriculture related education in Colleges and universities.
