As a traditional event, the Shanghai undergraduate chemistry experiment competition exerted significant influence among Shanghai and the Yangtze-river-delta region. This paper introduced the goals and objectives of the competition and described in detail the institution framework, the scale, contestant selection manners, contents, checkup forms as well as the characteristics of the competition. Combining with the specific proceedings of the competition, this paper elaborated the effect of competition on both promoting interschool exchange and pushing forward the teaching reform of chemistry experiment in the following four respects; 1. identifying problems existed in experiment teaching through participation in the competition; 2. improving the laboratory condition by sponsoring the competition; 3. organizing a symposium of experiment teaching during the competition; 4. conducting subsequent exchange of visits and contacts after the competition. Citing the center of chemistry experiment teaching of Tongji University as an example, it also analyzed the effectiveness of improving the quality of undergraduate experimental teaching with practical cases.

Based on the changes of teaching contents of advanced chemistry experiment in Nanjing University in recent years, this paper elaborates the characteristics of the teaching contents of this curriculum, the transformation of the teaching model and teaching management. In the process of advanced chemistry experiment teaching, according to the modern curriculum construction idea of " attaching importance to the foundation, tending to the scientific frontier, reflecting the modern and comprehensive crossing", we focus on the connotation construction of teaching contents, and strive to cultivate the students' academic and professional ability, multi-disciplinary interdisciplinary practice ability and employment and entrepreneurship ability by improving the comprehensiveness of experiments, highlighting the frontier of experiments, and strengthening the interdisciplinary and practical application of experiments. These may promote the cultivation of diversified talents. Through the heuristic research teaching, we try to promote the integration of experimental teaching and scientific research, and make students gradually have the ability to carry out scientific research activities independently. By giving full play to the advantages and potentials of the Internet, we attempt to achieve individualized training, improve students ' independent learning ability and expand students ' scope of knowledge. As a result, the teaching quality and teaching effect are improved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

“Food Machine and Equipment” is a very important course in food science and engineering. It is also the intermediate course to link the professional theory to production practice. The virtual simulation technology is introduced into experimental teaching to solve the problems which exist in the experimental teaching of the course, such as shortage of large machinery and equipment, limitation of using space. It holds some advantages of vividness, immediacy and experimental safety. It can help students learn this course better and understand the importance of mechanical equipment in food processing. This paper mainly expounds the construction of virtual simulation experimental teaching platform , typical application and effect evaluation. The final aim of virtual simulation experimental teaching is to arouse the enthusiasm and cultivate the engineering practice ability and creative ability of the students, and to improve the teaching quality.

This paper explores the experimental teaching mode based on the cultivation of innovative talents by taking the experimental teaching of thermal engineering as an example. It emphasizes the combination of learning and thinking, the unity of knowledge and practice as well as teaching students according to their aptitude, and takes them as the theoretical guidance. It follows the law of experimental teaching and also highlights its status; it takes the improvement of the supporting and service role in experimental teaching into one of the principal and leading roles in innovation education as the guiding idea. It establishes the multi-level experimental teaching system of thermal engineering by arranging experimental projects. Advanced foreign teaching equipment and MOOC teaching concept are introduced to develop network experimental teaching platform, virtual simulation experimental courseware, the evaluation software of experimental results, and the experimental teaching mode that strengthens the preview section, highlights the experimental process, students’ subject status, independent experiment and on-site evaluation. Practice suggests that this mode fully embodies the student-centered training mode, can greatly enhance students’ initiative and improve students’ practical and innovation abilities, so it can provide reference for the same type of experimental course teaching.

The reform of experimental teaching is promoted and the new model of experimental teaching is explored from constructing the diversified experimental teaching environment for cultivating innovative talents. The ability training of students is taken as the main line, and innovative education as the goal. The comprehensive and coordinated development concept of "knowledge, ability and quality) is carried out. According to the development of Province-grade Experimental Demonstration Center for Environment, Resource and Geographical Information, this paper puts forward a new experimental teaching conception of (a subject and two aspects", that is to take experiment teaching as one main subject and include two aspects of scientific research and service society. The scientific research promotes the reform of experimental teaching and the service society enriches the source of experimental projects. The reform of experimental teaching has been explored from constructing new system of experimental teaching, reforming the metliod of experimental teaching, making innovation in experimental teaching instrument, constituting scientific and reasonable evaluation mechanism, deepening the reform of management system, strengthening the construction of experimental teaching staff, etc. These lay the foundation for full playing the role of radiation and demonstration of the center, servicing teaching, promoting scientific research and building a practice education platform for cultivating high quality innovative and applied talents.

In the participatory teaching approach, teachers and students are all put in the main positions in the teaching process. The approach fully realizes the functions of teachers teaching and students learning. This paper studies the implementation process and key factors of participatory teaching approach in organic chemical experiment teaching, designs the teaching model, and expounds the concrete case of participatory teaching approach. By applying the participatory teaching approach, students' enthusiasm will be aroused, and their learning method will be changed from "passive" to "active". Meanwhile, the experimental process will be no longer a process for "single copy", but a comprehensive one which leads the students to "finding problems, analyzing problems and solving problems". Besides, teachers "teaching methods will be turned from teaching" to "guide". It cultivates students many good qualities, such as exploration spirit, independent analyzing ability, and boldly questioned manner. In a word, the overall quality of students will be improved, and the quality of experimental teaching will also be improved significantly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Proceeding from the requirements for applied talents of the current talent training scheme and strengthening the students and teachers' work of science and technology innovation, the paper analyzed the bottleneck problems of national experimental teaching demonstration center of forest engineering in the process of construction. It elucidated the relationship of guidance and assistance each other among the experimental teachers and professional teachers and graduate students and undergraduates, and established a system such that everybody was responsible to the experimental equipment. A layers-promoting experimental course system was built by combining the professional experiments and innovative experiments and scientific experiments. W e make full use of the network resources to improve experimental teaching effect, and realize online management through the network management platform, and enhance the construction of experimental teaching materials and experimental excellent courses to promote the experimental teaching reform.
