With the help of learning environment created by virtual reality technology as a carrier, considering the characteristics of Engineering hydrology education, this paper proposes to establish a learning content management system of engineering hydrology courses, advocates to organize and implement teaching and assessment process in the system and explores the role of virtual reality technology in cultivating higher water vocational talents.
Project-oriented teaching methods were proposed in developing an Engineering Hydrology in a learning content management system, in which a digital learning environment was used to manage, organize and implement course materials, teaching, and evaluation. The system will be applied in training water information technology professionals. The system adopted information technology and curriculum integration, which enable student to complete the training, learn necessary knowledge, and to build up the ability to achieve the designated goals.
The construction of test basin for enhanced observing of all elements of the hydrological cycle was described.In this test basin water levels, soil moisture, rainfall, evaporation and other elements are observerd based on four river channel flow stations, a soil moisture monitoring sites, a small integrated weather station, a set of evaporation observation system and a rainfall observation station equipment.The observational data are collected and transportted to the computer via GPRS .The construction of the basin focuses on the verification and research for the basic theory of hydrological cycle ,which can provide an effective physical model for the development of mathematical models.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
