以养牛学课程为例探索动物生产学的教学改革

动物生产学属于应用型学科,具有很强的实践性,教学任务是使学生掌握现代畜禽饲养的新技术、新方法,适应行业需求,具备服务企业的基本技能。然而,农业院校现有的教学模式很难实现以上目标,且普遍存在课堂教学不能充分调动学生学习积极性的问题。为培养符合社会需求的高素质畜牧专业人才,课程改革与创新势在必行。以养牛学课程为例,从课堂教学内容的优化、教学模式的创新、实践教学的加强以及考核方式的完善等方面阐述动物生产学教学改革的思路与方法。

Teaching Reform of Animal Production—Taking Cattle Breeding as an Example

Animal production is an application-oriented discipline with high practicality.The task of animal production teaching is to make undergraduates obtain new technologies and methods in modern livestock and poultry breeding,adapt to the requirement of the industry,and have the basic skills of serving enterprises.However,the existing teaching model in agricultural universities and colleges is hard to realize the above goals,and it is normal that the undergraduates′learning enthusiasm can not be fully motivated in the classroom teaching.To train high-quality talents in animal husbandry who meet the social needs,the current curriculums are imperative to be reformed and innovated.Taking Cattle Breeding as an example,this paper elaborates the ideas and methods of the teaching reform for animal production curriculums from the aspects of optimizing classroom teaching contents,innovating teaching model,strengthening practical teaching,and improving assessment methods.
