Abstract

As a core basic course for engineering disciplines, Theoretical Mechanics has long confronted teaching dilemmas including abstract concepts, hard‑to‑visualize motion processes and complicated mathematical derivations. Targeting the structural contradiction of “difficult‑to‑teach” and “difficult‑to‑learn” in traditional classrooms, this paper analyzes the visual‑oriented and fragmented cognitive characteristics of students in the digital age and puts forward feasible paths for the integration of digital resources. This research focuses on constructing systematic resources covering dynamic visualization, step‑by‑step deduction, and virtual‑real integrated engineering cases. It also designs a whole‑process teaching mode of “pre‑class resource preloading and problem‑oriented guidance — in‑class dynamic demonstration and interactive discussion — after‑class virtual simulation and hierarchical expansion”. Practice shows that this mode can effectively resolve difficult knowledge points and improve students’ capabilities in mechanical modeling and engineering analysis. With rigorous logical organization, this paper provides an operable innovative paradigm for classroom reform of Theoretical Mechanics.
