Abstract: Measurement and control technology and instrumentation, as a high-tech intensive specialty integrating disciplines such as electrical engineering, optics, control theory, computer science and instrumentation science, has a strong interdisciplinary nature. This presents challenges to traditional teaching methods which often fail to fully cultivate students' practical and innovative abilities. To address this, a multi-level teaching model focused on the cultivation of practical and innovative skills has been developed, reforming the original experimental teaching mode and integrating the establishment of experimental teaching platforms. The proposed teaching model integrates theoretical knowledge with practical application, utilising improved experimental platforms such as YOLOv5s for hands-on teaching. The reformed teaching model has enhanced students' comprehensive abilities and achieved noticeable success in teaching practice.

Keywords: cultivation program; cultivation mode; practice teaching; YOLOv5.
