Abstract
This study implements a blended pedagogical reform for analog circuit experiments, integrating virtual simulations with design-oriented experiments to overcome traditional limitations. The redesigned curriculum combines 16-hour virtual experiments using an intelligent platform enabling remote real-time optimization, with 16-hour design projects from national competitions. Embedded ideological-political education enhances engineering ethics through collaborative troubleshooting. Implemented in 2024 with 47 students. Evaluation data (34 participants) demonstrate exceptional outcomes: 96.71/100 course rating (top 29% university-wide), 97.1% approval for cognitive-aligned design, and universal recognition of enhanced innovation capabilities. The hybrid model effectively bridges theory-practice gaps while synergizing technical training with value cultivation.
