Abstract
In order to solve the problem of lack of innovation and practice ability of students in the field of software engineering talent training in China, it has become an important task to train applied talents with innovation consciousness and ability. From the perspective of application-oriented talent training, this work proposes a whole-process project practice teaching model called the four-step, and evaluates its effectiveness. The model aims to cultivate application-oriented talents with innovation awareness and ability. It is implemented through such activities as open innovation practice base, student science and technology innovation project and university student discipline competition. Based on the autonomous approach, this model combines the professional curriculum within the teaching plan and the practice teaching of independent planning to meet personalized and free practice teaching needs of students. This paper also presents an evaluation model based on the Apriori algorithm for four-step. The evaluation of teaching effectiveness is conducted through seven evaluation indicators, including subject competition practice and outcome promotion. The experimental results show that the four-step whole-process project practice teaching mode has significant effectiveness in cultivating innovative applied software engineering talents. This paper provides a new teaching practice model for the training of software engineering professionals in colleges and universities, and verifies its effect on the improvement of innovation ability.
