基于STEAM理念酿酒工程专业英语教学改革与实践

Reform and implementation of technical English course for brewing engineering undergraduates based on STEAM theory

摘要:

酿酒工程专业英语是酿酒工程专业的必修课程。为了提高酿酒工程专业英语教学质量与效果，结合培养高素质应用型人才培养方案，在教学中引入科学、技术、工程、艺术和数学多学科融合的超学科教育理念 (称STEAM教育)，挑选、设计、整合和优化教学内容。借助雨课堂、学堂在线、Open Language、Wine Folly、葡萄酒及烈酒教育基金会培训课程等平台资源，对教学方法和手段、考核方式、教学效果评价体系进行了创新性改革与实践。通过思维导图绘制、微视频制作、主题演讲、情景对话、程序创意设计、酒标及酒瓶包装设计大赛等教学方式的应用，切实有效地提高了学生学习的兴趣与投入，增强了学生对专业英语知识的掌握和综合应用能力。

Abstract:

Technical English is a compulsory course for brewing engineering undergraduates. To improve the quality and effectiveness of teaching, we introduced science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (abbreviated to STEAM) education theory in technical English teaching of brewing engineering students, and selected, designed, integrated and optimized the teaching contents. With the help of the Rain Classroom, Massive Open Online Courses of Tsinghua University (XuetangX), Open Language, Wine Folly, training courses of Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET) and other platform resources, teaching methods, assessment ways and multi-element teaching evaluation system have been innovatively reformed. By using advanced teaching methods such as mind mapping drawing, micro-video production, situational dialogues, topic speech, creative program design and design competition of wine label and bottle packaging, it could effectively improve students’ learning interest and engagement, and enhance students’ knowledge of professional English and comprehensive application ability.
