This research takes the Software Testing course for computer-related majors in undergraduate independent colleges under the background of Emerging Engineering Education as the research object. Aiming at the problems in traditional teaching such as teacher-centeredness, passive student learning, weak curriculum connection and imperfect assessment and evaluation, it integrates classroom presentation into course teaching and carries out the reform and practice of heuristic, interactive and application-oriented teaching mode. Based on the pre-course foundation and the accumulation of existing teaching practice, the research constructs a student-centered flipped classroom teaching mode by designing two types of presentation themes (free choice and designated), adopting a mixed online and offline presentation form, improving the evaluation mechanism with modern teaching tools, establishing a professional teaching team, and integrating ideological and political elements of the curriculum into teaching. Meanwhile, a diversified quantitative evaluation system emphasizing process assessment has been established, and systematic teaching resources such as teaching videos, demonstration courses, optimized teaching documents, typical cases and implementation manuals have been formed. This reform has effectively realized the transformation from "teaching-centered" to "learning-centered", improved students' professional application, communication and cooperation, innovation and practical abilities, and also provided a replicable and promotable reference scheme for other courses to carry out presentation teaching, thus achieving the expected research objectives of the project.
