Constructing Teaching System of Engineering Graphics Based on the Plan for Educating and Training Outstanding Engineers and CDIO

Abstract: CDIO is a new pattern of current higher education, aiming at cultivating international engineers. In order to realize the education power, the Ministry of Education launched an important strategic measure: the Plan for Educating and Training Outstanding Engineers (PETOE). Both of them are aiming at training the internationalized engineers. The defects of current engineering graphics education are introduced in the paper. According to years of reform experiences on the engineering graphics based on PETOE and CDIO in Yanshan University, the paper briefly introduces how to reconstruct curriculum system of the engineering graphics based on PETOE and CDIO to ensure engineering properties and practical properties.The practice shows that such teaching model is effective to inspire and cultivate engineering ability and creativity of students. Meanwhile, it has also laid a good foundation for the follow-up courses, graduation design, and even future research work.#br# Key words: the plan for educating and training outstanding engineers (PETOE); CDIO; educational reform; engineering graphics; stereo-dynamic teaching platform
