This paper combed the problems existing in engineering training in universities and studied the commonness and characteristics of new engineering, maker education and engineering training under the background of new engineering. We find that the reform on the engineering training education based on maker education concept can fully leverage all the elements of education, motivate students ' interests, stimulate their enthusiasm and improve their ability of innovation practice, finally provide important support for the objectives of cultivating new engineering talents. Carrying out practice in engineering training center of Henan Polytechnic University, we have made some achievements in theory and practice, formed student-centered maker teaching method, constructed project-driven diversified teaching content, and established result-oriented pluralistic evaluation mechanism. Especially three transformations have been realized, from teacher-centered to student-centered, from task-driven to project-driven and from classroom-based to training field-based. In recent years it has been proved that after integrating maker education concept into engineering training, students ' comprehensive quality and innovative ability both can be significantly promoted, and they have got gratifying achievements in many innovation and entrepreneurship competitions.

In recent years, interdisciplinary research has become an important driving force of scientific innovation. And multi-disciplinary integration has been designated as an important part of new engineering development. In view of this, this paper firstly reveals the limitations of traditional embedded system experiment teaching by investigating the current situation and atmosphere of interdisciplinary innovation in enterprises and university of shanghai for science and technology, and analyzes the challenges faced by interdisciplinary embedded system experiment teaching from two aspects of teaching content and teaching form, then puts forward teaching reform methods to diversify teaching contents and build hierarchy teaching form which supports project based teaching and competition based teaching. These teaching reform methods are conducive to enhance the ability of interdisciplinary innovation and cooperation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Engineering Training Centers (ETCs) should promote the cooperative development of engineering training and innovation practice for new engineering construction and training talents who wi11 lead the future engineering demand. This paper takes the ETC, Huazhong University of Science and Technology as an example, points out that ETCs should improve the quality of teaching and service. Thus, ETCs constructs three levels of engineering training curriculum system such as engineering cognition, engineering training and engineering exploration. ETCs renews teaching contents, upgrades practical facilities, reforms teaching methods and perfects teaching team. ETCs also implements the “5A” project, including a makerspace, a set of services, a course, a certificate, and a database. Overall, ETCs should become more innovative, more open, more modern, and build up the first-class teaching support platforms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The industrial reform that is caused by the deep integration between the new generation of information technology and manufacturing industry give a new challenge for higher engineering education. To meet this challenge, the education departments of our country will actively deepen the reform of engineering education and start the construction of “new engineering". The practical significance and strategic significance of “new engineering" construction were explained in this paper. And the foothold of local universities in the construction of new engineering course was analyzed. From the aspects of education idea, training plan, teaching method, cooperative teaching, innovation and entrepreneurship platform, construction of teaching staff, the construction ideas of new engineering in local undergraduate colleges were expounded.

From its practical significance to the practical teaching reform for materials discipline, this paper is intended to build an innovation-type practical teaching system based on the "new engineering", establish the practical teaching norms, optimize the innovative practical teaching contents, reform the practical teaching means and methods, and improve the bases and implementing ways in the practical teaching guarantee system. Thus, the practical teaching becomes a principal channel for the students in materials discipline in their innovative consciousness, engineering quality and the cultivation of engineering practice ability.
