解决问题是工科毕业生培养的一项重要技能。然而,在大多数传统的工程课堂上,学生练习解决结构良好的问题,这是不够的,因为工程师需要能够解决结构不良的真实的世界问题。因此,对工科学生进行不良结构问题解决能力的培养是非常重要的。在本文中,我们提出了一种新的教学策略,不良结构问题解决的基础上生产性失败和教师提示。学生在课堂上进行无指导的小组工程问题的探索,之后他们接受指导解决问题的策略。我们进行了一项试点研究,将我们的教学策略,在高级电气工程课程。我们发现,学生发展了一些结构不良的问题解决技能,并表现出一系列的问题解决行为和技巧。
Problem solving is an important skill for engineering graduates to develop. However, in most traditional engineering classrooms, students practice solving well structured problems which is not sufficient because engineers need to be able to solve real world problems which are ill structured. Therefore it is important for engineering students to be trained in ill-structured problem solving. In this paper, we present a new teaching-learning strategy for ill-structured problem solving based on productive failure and instructor prompts. Students do unguided in-class exploration of engineering problems in groups, after which they receive instruction on problem solving strategies. We conducted a pilot study by incorporating our teaching-learning strategy in a senior electrical engineering course. We found that students developed several ill-structured problem solving skills and showed a range of problem solving behaviors and heuristics.
