A Case Study of Running the Fluid Dynamic Course to Sophomore Students of Civil Engineering

Fluid dynamic is an important course in engineering undergraduate education. In this article, a case study that running the fluid dynamic course to sophomore students of civil engineering by the author is conducted. Even though running into several problems when imparting knowledge towards non-major junior undergraduate students within limited teaching hours, the author solved them by thoughtfully selecting textbooks, dividing levels for the course and guiding the target for students. The target echelon and concept map theories are employed, as well as attaching importance to experimental session in order for the students’ practical ability. The methods mentioned above are attested effective in teaching practice, which has accumulated precious experience for running the fluid dynamic course to engineering undergraduate students in limited teaching hour.
