"The Integration of Science and Education" aims to innovate, integrate, and share educational models and methods by focusing on technological advancements. This work explores the stages of in-class experiments, CDIO (Conceive-Design- Implement-Operate) experiments, and open innovation experiments, and proposes solutions for each instructional stage based on their characteristics. In the in-class experiment stage, advanced technology is introduced into classroom teaching using equipment as a medium. In CDIO experiments, simple research topics and research organizational forms are introduced, allowing students to have an initial experience with research by dividing the tasks and steps of the topics into research nodes. In stages such as open innovation experiments, teaching activities facilitate research by offering preliminary groundwork for projects. By organically combining these three stages, students' engineering abilities are greatly enhanced, and their innovative spirit is cultivated.
