Initial Discussion About the Classroom Teaching Process Reform of Solar Thermal Powder Technology

Abstract

Solar Thermal Powder Technology is a compulsory course of New Energy Science and Engineering major. However, students are short of enthusiasm for learning this cause, due to the lack of related teaching materials, news reports, research papers and so on. To arouse their enthusiasm of learning and improve teaching results, we adopt the method of reforming the classroom teaching process for this course. In this paper, we have taken the knowledge point of “Stirling cycle†as an example to show the reformed classroom teaching process which contains three aspects: teaching content, teaching methods and teaching effect feedback. Expository methods-domain and videos view-assisted is adopted as the teaching method. In addition, we pay attention to train students self-operational ability and have taken the making of an Stirling device by students as an effective method to check the results of teaching and learning.
