Abstract

This paper expounds the connotation and characteristics of the self-directed learning method. Combined with the characteristics of the Linear Algebra course and with the help of digital and intelligent technology, a teaching practice plan based on the self-directed learning method is designed, including the creation of hierarchical goals, the construction of online resources, the tracking of learning processes, the joint construction of teaching cases, the introduction of AI teaching assistants, and the implementation of multi-dimensional evaluation. The practical results show that this method can effectively improve students' learning autonomy, enhance their thinking ability and strengthen their ability to apply knowledge, providing a useful reference for the teaching reform of the Linear Algebra course.
