Practice and Exploration of Teaching Reform of Automatic Control Principle Course in the Context of New Engineering Subjects

In order to respond to the demand of "new engineering" to cultivate talents with strong practical ability, high innovation ability and excellent professional quality, colleges and universities need to reform and innovate the teaching mode of engineering majors. Principle of automatic control course has significant advantages in cultivating students' practical and innovative ability, but there are still some teaching problems. In order to better meet the requirements of students in new engineering disciplines, it is necessary to improve the teaching defects of automatic control principle course to cultivate high-quality talents. By analysing the connotation and teaching problems of the course, and combining with the background of "New Engineering", the experimental teaching mode is explored and reformed. It is recommended to revise the experimental syllabus and increase the experimental hours to ensure that students have sufficient time for practical operation and experimental design. At the same time, a simulation experiment system is established to provide a wider range of experimental scenarios and practical opportunities. Emphasis is placed on designing a variety of experimental types to help students continuously improve their practical ability and innovative awareness. Innovative experimental teaching methods are advocated to introduce project-based experiments and collaborative experiments, etc., to stimulate students' creativity and teamwork spirit.
