Abstract: The experimental course is an important part of the learning content for engineering majors. The resources of experimental courses should meet teaching needs, but in practice, there are still some problems of limited resources, such as insufficient sets of instruments, limited operable functions and limited space for innovative thinking. In view of the limited resources for basic experimental courses in the School of Materials Science and Engineering of Shandong University of Science and Technology, the existing experimental course resources for the new energy materials and devices major are classified and analyzed, and the idea of optimizing experimental course is put forward. According to the experimental hours and equipment conditions, the study focuses on instrument knowledge, sample preparation, parameter selection, result processing, skills and ideas training. The arrangement of experimental projects and the allocation of equipment are optimized in the course planning. The understanding of application examples is arranged in the knowledge review and learning session. Thinking items and variables are set up in the instrument operation process, so that students can guide each other and find rules. The virtual simulation technology and online resources are introduced in the pre-class preview and after-class self-study link. This provides a new idea for the development of professional technical experiments, comprehensive experiments, and other courses.
