Method and Practice of Digital Graphics Course Based on Knowledge Graph of New Quality Productive Forces

Abstract

New quality productive forces characterized by innovation and innovation-driven development are essentially talent-driven. The cultivation of engineering practice and innovation ability of science and engineering talents is closely related to the development of national science and technology. It serves as a decisive factor in seizing opportunities of the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial change. To align digital engineering graphics education with the evolving demands of industries driven by new quality productive forces and engineering practice, this paper proposes teaching methods based on digital teaching practices at Tianjin University. These methods aim to deepen students’ understanding of new quality productive forces in engineering practice. The knowledge map of new quality productive forces is designed to enhance students’ innovation ability based on cartographic knowledge. It achieves this by refining typical engineering application scenarios that address global scientific and technological issues, tackle economic challenges, meet national strategic needs, and improve people’s life and health. This approach aims to cultivate innovative engineering and technical talents with a solid theoretical foundation, comprehensive innovation abilities, and strong engineering practice ability.
