The design of experimental courses in safety culture
Abstract
To promote the application of safety culture in experimental courses that educate safety engineering majors and help students understand the concept and meaning of safety culture more deeply, this paper designed 10 experimental courses in safety culture from the perspective of the definition of safety culture using literature co-occurrence analysis and certain review methods. First, according to the literature research and keyword analysis, the definitions of safety culture can currently be divided into three categories: “the embodiment of safety concepts”; “the synthesis of safety concepts and behaviors”; and “the comprehensive theory of safety culture”. Then, based on the study of the definitions, 10 experimental courses were designed and the basis was listed. The final results include 10 safety culture experiments and the relationship between them. The purpose, significance, contents and steps of the 10 experiments are designed to help students better understand the meaning of safety culture and try to transform scientific research achievements of safety culture into teaching.
