Abstract: With the progress of the times, people can acquire information at any time and any place.
The massive open online course (MOOC), a novel teaching method, can present knowledge in real
time and multidimensional mode. MOOC idea conforms to the information times, and accords with
the thinking characteristics and personality traits of contemporary students. Considering the present
situation in higher education, we can change the traditional teaching method that is employed on the
engineering drawing course in the university by integrating MOOC idea therein. The thinking on the
teaching reformation of engineering drawing course based on MOOC idea is presented in this paper.
In the teaching process of the engineering drawing course, it is necessary to make full use of the
internet advantages. The practice of classroom teaching combined with internet plus makes
continuous progress in engineering drawing teaching. Our practices show that the new teaching style
“internet plus” for the engineering drawing course can expand teaching time and space, and is well
welcomed by all students.

Key words: engineering drawing, classroom teaching, massive open online course, internet plus
