因此,UEC 将科创课程作为核心课程,带领学生从基础结构学习到智能设备制作,再到个人创意作品的完成。课程不仅培养动手能力、逻辑思维、文献整合和表达能力,也为未来在机械、计算机、物联网、人工智能等方向的深入学习打下坚实基础。
For this reason, UEC places innovation & research courses at the core curriculum—guiding students from foundational structural learning, to intelligent device development, and ultimately to the completion of individual creative projects. The program cultivates hands-on ability, logical reasoning, literature synthesis, and academic expression, while laying a solid foundation for further study in mechanical engineering, computer science, the Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence.


课程采用研究导向的项目制学习模式,通过循序渐进的“工具入门—逻辑构建—综合创造”三阶教学法,引导学生从基础能力入门、编程与智能设备制作,到最终完成具有实际功能的个人作品。教师仅明确最终成果所需实现的核心功能与目标,不预设固定解法或创意方法,让学生找到自己的实现方式。
The course adopts research-oriented learning approach. Through a progressive three-stage pedagogical framework—tool acquisition, logical construction, and integrated creation—students are guided from the development of foundational skills, through programming and intelligent device construction, to the completion of individually designed projects with real-world functionality. Instructors define only the core objectives and functional requirements of the final outcome, without prescribing fixed solutions or creative approaches, allowing students to explore and develop their own methods of implementation.
Stage 1 | 动手实操能力:学习使用基础结构制作工具
Hands-on Practical Skills: Learning to Use Fundamental Fabrication Tools
UEC 科创课程为学生提供完善的环境与设备支持,配备独立的科创实验室,以及3D打印机、焊接台等多种常用制作设备,保障学生能够在真实的制作场景中开展学习与探索。
The UEC Innovation & Research course provides students with a well-equipped learning environment, including a dedicated innovation laboratory and commonly used fabrication equipment such as 3D printers and soldering workstations. This ensures that students can learn and explore in authentic, real-world making contexts.

第一阶段从学习使用基础制作工具入手,在导师指导下,学生可以快速上手并熟悉基础结构制作过程,对于0基础或未系统学习过工具使用方法的同学起到缓冲作用,帮助他们在较短时间内上手实践。
The first stage focuses on learning how to use fundamental fabrication tools. Under the guidance of mentors, students are able to quickly get started and become familiar with basic structural fabrication processes. This stage serves as a transitional foundation, particularly for students with no prior experience or without systematic training in tool usage, enabling them to enter hands-on practice within a relatively short period of time.

在掌握基本操作后,导师将根据学生的熟练程度设置阶段性任务目标,由学生自主尝试不同方法来实现自己的设计想法。在这一开放式的学习过程中,学生在逐步掌握动手实操能力的同时,也被激发出主动探索新方法的学习自驱力,为后续更复杂的阶段做好准备。
Once students have mastered basic operations, mentors set stage-specific task objectives based on each student's level of proficiency. Students are encouraged to independently experiment with different approaches to realize their own design ideas. Through this open-ended learning process, students not only develop solid hands-on skills but also cultivate intrinsic motivation for exploration and problem-solving, laying a strong foundation for the more advanced stages that follow.
Stage 2 | 培养逻辑思维:学习使用电子制作基础工具
Developing Logical Thinking: Learning to Use Fundamental Electronics and Prototyping Tools

在掌握基础结构制作后,课程进入电子制作与智能硬件阶段。学生将动手制作简单的智能设备,学习电子焊接的基本规范,并初步接触单片机、传感器与执行器。通过编程实现设备的功能逻辑,让设备能够按预期工作。
After mastering basic structural fabrication, the course moves into the stage of electronics fabrication and intelligent hardware. Students build simple smart devices, learn essential standards and practices of electronic soldering, and gain initial exposure to microcontrollers, sensors, and actuators. Through programming, they implement functional logic that enables devices to operate as intended.
这一阶段的重点不在于掌握某一项具体技术,而在于完成从“单点知识”到“系统理解”的转变。学生将在实践中逐步建立跨学科建模意识与系统设计能力,学会将数学中的逻辑关系、信息与编程思维、科学原理和工程实现整合为一套以问题为导向的解决逻辑。
The focus of this stage is not on mastering a single technical skill, but on achieving a transition from isolated knowledge points to systematic understanding. Through hands-on practice, students gradually develop interdisciplinary modeling awareness and system design capability. They learn to integrate mathematical logic, information and computational thinking, scientific principles, and engineering implementation into a problem-oriented solution framework.

通过不断调试电路、优化代码和调整方案,学生不仅完成知识的自然扩展,也逐步形成分析问题、设计方案并解决实际问题的能力,为后续相关方向的深入学习打下基础。
By continuously debugging circuits, optimizing code, and refining design approaches, students not only extend their knowledge organically but also cultivate the ability to analyze problems, design solutions, and address real-world challenges—laying a solid foundation for further study in related fields.
Stage 3 | 培养综合能力:综合运用技能知识,完成创意作品
Developing Integrated Competence: Applying Knowledge and Skills to Complete a Creative Project

在课程的最后阶段,学生将进入个人创意作品的完成阶段。学生需要结合自身兴趣,在小组合作的基础上,综合运用前两个阶段所学习的结构制作、电子制作与编程知识,完成一个具备实际功能的创意作品。
In the final stage of the course, students enter the phase of completing an individual creative project. Building on their personal interests and supported by group collaboration, students integrate the skills and knowledge acquired in the previous stages—including structural fabrication, electronics, and programming—to develop a creative project with practical, real-world functionality.
在此过程中,学生需要系统记录从问题提出到成果完成的全过程,并以研究论文的形式进行整理,同时结合实物作品完成成果汇报与论文答辩。
Throughout this process, students are required to systematically document the entire workflow, from problem identification to final outcomes. Their work is then organized into a research-style paper, accompanied by a project presentation and formal defense based on the physical prototype.
通过这一完整流程,学生将进一步提升逻辑思维、动手实践、文献整合与表达能力,并提前熟悉大学阶段的研究与项目成果的形成方式,为后续专业学习与研究打下基础。
By engaging in this complete process, students further strengthen their logical reasoning, hands-on practice, literature synthesis, and academic communication skills. At the same time, they gain early exposure to university-level research and project development practices, laying a solid foundation for future academic study and research.

01.背景提升//Academic Profile Development

课程设计采用科学的三阶教学法与研究导向型(research-oriented learning)学习模式,帮助学生在高中阶段积累真实的实践项目经验,形成可用于升学申请的学术背景,而非停留在提前学习大学知识的层面。
The course is designed around a structured three-stage pedagogical framework and a research-oriented learning model, enabling students to accumulate authentic, project-based experience during high school. Rather than merely previewing university-level content, students build a substantive academic profile that can be meaningfully presented in university applications.

科创课程课程的评估不只看最终作品呈现,还重点考察学生在制作个人作品时的问题拆解能力、方案逻辑、技术选择理由与迭代过程,学生能够清楚认识自己的优势与提升空间,逐步建立完整的项目视角,而非只关注结果本身。
Assessment in the Innovation & Research course goes beyond the final product. Greater emphasis is placed on students' ability to break down problems, develop coherent solution logic, justify technical choices, and document iterative improvements throughout the project. This process-oriented evaluation helps students clearly identify their strengths and areas for growth, fostering a comprehensive project perspective rather than a result-only mindset.

课程不提供统一方案或固定创意模板。导师会结合学生的兴趣与基础进行引导,由学生自主做出设计选择并完成实现。因此,每个项目都具有明显的个人特点,在升学申请中也更具区分度。
The course does not provide standardized solutions or fixed creative templates. Instead, mentors guide students based on their individual interests and prior experience, allowing students to make independent design decisions and carry out their own implementations. As a result, each project reflects strong personal characteristics, increasing distinctiveness in university applications.

从基础学习、动手制作到成果汇报与答辩,课程帮助学生完成从“会做”到“能讲清楚”的转变,让知识、技能与表达形成完整闭环,而非碎片化学习。
From foundational learning and hands-on fabrication to final presentation and formal defense, the course supports students in progressing from "being able to build" to "being able to clearly explain." Knowledge, skills, and academic communication are integrated into a complete learning cycle, avoiding fragmented or superficial learning experiences.
UEC 科创课程通过系统、阶段式的项目训练,帮助学生在高中阶段逐步建立研究思路、创造能力与成果表达能力。这些能力不仅能够自然衔接海外大学的学习方式,也为未来相关专业方向的发展打下长期、稳定的基础。
