Discussion on Teaching Electromagnetic Field and Wave Course

摘要

We have already launched certain teaching reform that we combined the course Theory of Electromagnetic Field (including the antenna) and the course Microwave and Optical Guided Wave Technology into a single course, Electromagnetic Fields and Electromagnetic Wave. Although the depth and coverage of the course has increased, the course hours have been compressed. This requires teachers to make greater efforts and take more effective measures. So we have focused on three aspects of EM teaching. We have seized the keys of vector field theory to clear students' obstacles about mathematics, made students to understand the rigorous logic system of electromagnetic theory which deeply enhances the students' sense of innovation, and combined the theories with practical applications to improve their capabilities of applying knowledge and solving engineering problems.
