Abstract

With the in-depth advancement of engineering education accreditation, traditional teaching mode of "Analysis and Synthesis of Chemical Engineering Process" course has been difficult to meet the demands of cultivating chemical engineering talents in new times. Based on Outcome-Based Education (OBE) concept and combined with digital technology, the teaching reform and practice of this course were deeply discussed. A student-centered and ability cultivation-oriented teaching system was constructed by optimizing teaching contents, introducing mind maps, adopting composite teaching modes, and applying process simulation software such as Aspen Plus. This practice shown that abilities of students in engineering practice, problem-solving, and autonomous learning were significantly enhanced by the integration of digital construction and OBE concept, which provides new ideas for the teaching reform of chemical engineering-related professional courses.
