Department of Chemical Engineering
In the minds of chemical engineering students, computer science and programming languages belong to a different world. A student once told me that they chose chemical engineering precisely because they didn’t like programming languages. This inner resistance often leads to poor learning outcomes. To break down these mental barriers, we utilized an online interactive platform as a question-and-answer system during classes, allowing students to ask questions anonymously or with their names. Additionally, we invited external professionals to share their career development experiences with the students. This academic year, we also introduced project-based learning, enabling students to use programming languages they have learned to calculate chemical engineering heat transfer phenomena, distillation column tray numbers, and even modify game content and perform license plate recognition.
在化工系同學心目中,資訊科學與程式語言是另一個世界。曾經有同學跟我反映,他就是不喜歡程式語言才選擇化工系的。心裡面的抗拒,往往導致學習成果低落。為了打破心防,我們利用了線上互動平台作為上課提問與搶答系統,讓同學匿名或具名提問。另外,還邀請了校外業師來跟大家進行分享生涯發展。本學年還導入專案實作,讓同學利用所學程式語法,計算化工熱傳現象、蒸餾塔板數,還可以修改遊戲內容、車牌影像辨識等。
