Abstract

Due to the characteristics of the hydraulic engineer discipline, there are many real experimental teachings which are not difficultly carried out in the laboratory. Aiming at the deficiency of the traditional practice teaching of the hydraulic engineer in Tianjin Agricultural University, combined with the construction of the modern hydraulic engineer construction and management on the virtual simulation experiment teaching center in Tianjin Agricultural University, this paper introduces the exploratory work in the virtual simulation practice teaching of the hydraulic engineer. The practice shows that the open and autonomous virtual simulation experiments can promote the students' autonomous learning. It can form the connotation of the "green practice teaching" which can expand the real experiment with the simulation experiment and a virtuous circle of "the production, learning and research". According to the virtual simulation experiment teaching platform, the students can not only design the experiment independently but also experience the results of the experiments, which promote the students’ independent learning.
