Abstract

As one of the core courses of network engineering, the Computer Network course undertakes the important task of training students to master the basic concepts, principles and technologies of computer network and the ability to solve practical problems. However, the current teaching mode still has many deficiencies in content updating, methodological innovation and practical teaching, which is difficult to meet the demand for high-quality innovative talents in the rapidly developing information technology industry. For this reason, this paper introduces the educational concept of CDIO and puts forward a set of systematic teaching reform strategies to improve the teaching effect of the programme and the comprehensive ability of students. It has been proved that the teaching reform based on the concept of CDIO has significantly improved students' theoretical knowledge mastery and practical ability. Students show higher learning interest and initiative in the course learning, and are able to better apply theoretical knowledge to practical problem solving. Through this reform, students can not only master the basic knowledge of computer network, but also improve their comprehensive ability in practice, and become high-quality and innovative computer network technology engineering talents adapted to the needs of the industry.
