摘　　要：为了培养农业与生物系统工程类学生的创新能力,引导学生进行自主、探究式学习,在精细农业等农业信息和自动化技术类课程教学中应用LEGO Mindstorms组件作为教具,研制智能化可编程农机作业模拟系统。多组学生在Robolab编程环境下,使用此系统构建小型智能农业机械模型。结果表明,学生对这个实验项目的效果很满意。因为它不仅为学生提供了解决问题的技巧,提高了他们编程和机械设计等相关技能,同时有益于学生间形成团队协作的良好氛围。介绍了LEGO Mindstorms在相关农业信息课程教学中的探索应用以及实验结果。The objective is to present details of an LEGO Mindstorms robot design challenge arranged for agriculture and biosystems engineering students in Zhejiang University.As a new teaching tool in the course of Agricultural Information and Automation,different groups of students built Robotic Agricultural Machines using LEGO Mindstorms kits,with Robolab as the programming environment.A survey among 30 students showed that all students were challenged by the projects and were highly satisfied with the outcomes.They all strongly agreed that the projects were effective in helping them to work in teams,apply problem-solving techniques and to boost their programming and mechanical design skills.
