International Student-oriented Course Construction and Teaching Practice of Engineering Drawing

As globalization of higher education goes forward, there's urgent requirement for full English teaching for related majors and curriculum in universities in China. In order to meet the demand, course reform and exploration work has been carried out for the compulsory course "Engineering Drawing" in higher engineering education. This paper first introduces the current status of teacher and international students. Then approaches for course construction are presented based on analysis of student's education and language background. After that, methods for classroom teaching, practice section and course assessment are designed and described in detail. The implementation and feedback of teaching activities in the past few years have confirmed the feasibility and applicability of the course "Engineering Drawing" for international students. At the end suggestions on future curriculum reform are put forward according to the experiences and lessons learned.
