在高等教育中,最重要的学习目标之一是深刻理解。实现这一目标需要时间和努力。作者讨论了他们的意见,学生的时间使用的基础上,他们已经在芬兰的工程教育领域进行了几个案例研究。学生花在学习上的时间明显少于课程规定的时间。其他时间使用研究也揭示了课程和实际学习之间的争议。作者提出的问题,处理这个问题的原因,如工作量太高或课程太容易。观察和讨论将有希望激励课程,以更现实的尺寸时,采取欧洲学分转换系统(ECTS)的使用。
In higher education one of the most important learning goals is deep understanding. Achieving this goal needs time and effort. The authors discuss their observations of student time use on the basis of several case studies which they have conducted in the field of engineering education in Finland. The time that the students spend studying is clearly less than has been stipulated in curricula. Also other time-use studies reveal controversy between the curriculum and actual studying. The authors raise questions dealing with reasons for this problem such as is the workload too high or are the courses too easy. The observations and discussion will hopefully motivate courses to be dimensioned more realistically when taking the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) in use.
