Abstract

Concrete structure is one of the key courses of civil engineering major. Comparing with other courses in this major, the contents of concrete structure have a typical characteristic of emphasizing both theory and practice so the teaching and learning of this course are difficult. Based on years of teaching practice of concrete structure, the author tries to rearrange teaching contents according to the cognitive characteristics of students. The new teaching process generally follows the order of whole concepts of structures, then design elements as well as detailed configuration, and finally structures design. The teaching practices show the new process which makes the content more quickly and accurately accepted by students.
