Abstract: To enhance the teaching result and inspire the interest of students for the Fundamentals of Photonics course,a novel diversified teaching mode is proposed and explored here. In our mode,logical and coherent class teaching should be comprised of the developing history of photonics,the forefront of photonic technology,and the textbook knowledge,which is the core of class teaching.Meanwhile,based on the combination of the class teaching,practice teaching,and online interaction,we establish a diversified teaching method for our mode.It should be noted that the diversified teaching mode proposed here could be also extended to other related courses.
