Improvement of Teaching Mode and Its Effect on Experiments in Material Mechanics with Information Technology

This paper presents some significant methods to improve the teaching efficiency of the course "Experiments in Material Mechanics" in case of the limited teaching period that has been largely reduced in the past years. In our practice, the total teaching process was divided into experiments in class, self-study experiments and experiments outside class. Some modern teaching instruments were applied to save class time, and the multi-links testing pattern was put forward to meet the present experiment teaching mode. The applicability of the proposed teaching methods was tested, and the future task about the further improvement of the teaching technique was analyzed and discussed.
