Abstract

Against the background of New Engineering Construction and Engineering Education Certification, the traditional teaching system of the course Principles and Applications of Microcontrollers has problems such as lagging content update, disconnection from industrial demand, and lack of continuous improvement mechanism. This study constructs a closed-loop rapid iterative optimization mechanism of Collection-Evaluation-Update-Feedback-Optimization, and reversely designs the course structure based on the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) concept, optimizes the ratio of theoretical and practical teaching, implements a diversified assessment system, promotes the deep participation of enterprises in teaching through deepening the integration of industry and education, and explores the layered integration path of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology and course teaching. The practical results show that this mechanism has effectively improved the teaching quality of the course, and both academic competitions and employment quality have been significantly improved. This study can provide practical reference for the teaching reform of similar engineering courses in application-oriented universities.
