In response to the problems of low practical ability and lack of learning interest among students in experimental teaching in engineering colleges, the B&R Laboratory encourages students to self-empower, stimulate their interest in learning, empower and authorize them with more learning rights, seize interdisciplinary integration knowledge and skills, comprehensively improve professional literacy and innovation ability, and cultivate them to quickly grow into new engineering innovation talents meeting the needs of the times. This article introduces the concept of empowerment theory into the teaching reform process of the B&R laboratory, and explores a teaching method centered on “learning”, which is a teaching method that students are self-empowered, self-learning, and self-teaching. Practice has proven that through the application of innovative teaching methods that empower and authorize students, their learning initiatives are significantly improved, and the teaching effect is greatly improved. They have performed excellently in various subject competitions, postgraduate entrance exams, and employment, which provides new ideas for cultivating new engineering professionals.
