The application research of digital technology in the education for major of machinery in new engineering background

The modernization of education relies on the use of digital technology to change traditional teaching methods. Under the background of Emerging Engineering Education, the application of digital technology will be an important way for teaching reform of mechanical specialty. Therefore, this paper firstly analyzes the shortcomings of teaching methods, the defects of experimental training equipments and the lack of practical projects in the teaching process of mechanical course, then provides some measures to solving these problems with the help of digital technology. These measures cover introducing digital technology into teaching content, create a digital training environment and cultivate students' innovative ability by digital technology, some examples of practical applications are given. These examples show the feasibility of these measures and play a positive role in the teaching of mechanical engineering. Under the background of Emerging Engineering Education, this paper has reference significance for perfected the teaching of the traditional mechanical courses through digital technology.
