In view of the problems existing in the traditional "Internet of Things Control Principles and Technology" course, such as the disconnect between theoretical teaching and engineering practice, insufficient training of students' engineering abilities, and low classroom participation, this article builds a "concept-project-driven" course teaching model based on the OBE and CDIO engineering education concepts. The course takes real engineering projects such as "Regional Traffic Collaborative Control System" as the main line, carries out systematic reforms around teaching philosophy, teaching model, teaching activities, teaching evaluation and other aspects, and integrates the Simulink virtual simulation platform and the intelligent transportation sand table experiment platform to form a teaching system of "combination of virtual and real, project penetration, and continuous feedback". Taking students majoring in Internet of Things engineering as the research object, the effect of the curriculum reform was analyzed through controlled experiments. The results show that after adopting the OBE-CDIO project-driven teaching model, students' average course grades, excellence rate and engineering practice ability have been significantly improved, and students' learning interest, independent learning ability and teamwork ability have been significantly enhanced.
