Exploration of Competition Mode in Teaching Practice of "Electric Drive Automatic Control Systems"

Abstract

In the field of engineering education, theory and practice are mutually reinforcing elements that enhance learning. The core course in Automation, titled "Electric Drive Automatic Control Systems," requires a thorough understanding of theoretical concepts, integration across various disciplines, and strong connections to practical engineering applications. The primary challenge is to ignite students' enthusiasm within the limited class hours, ensuring not only a comprehensive grasp of fundamental theoretical principles but also the development of practical skills essential for achieving the course objectives. Based on Behaviorist learning theory and the concept of education pyschologicalization, this study introduces a competitive approach to the course design, blending it with practical teaching methods. It explores positive incentives to encourage constructive learning, collaboration, and critical thinking. This approach fosters an independent, proactive, and efficient classroom environment, significantly improving the quality of education.
