Abstract: Based on the analysis of the current situation of machine learning course, the paper propose a reform program of machine learning for cultivating students'practice and innovation abilities. The program clarifies the student-centered teaching concept, and designs teaching contents that cultivate students'foundation and perspective of Artificial Intelligence technology. It focuses on cultivating students'practice and innovation abilities in the field of machine learning, including improving their abilities to abstract and model data analysis problems, to program algorithms and analyze result, expanding their perspectives on Artificial Intelligence, and cultivating their lifelong-learning concepts. Teaching practice has proven that this program has achieved the expected goals well and could improve talents'quality cultivated in the computer major.

Key words: Machine learning, Practical innovation abilities, Artificial intelligence technology, Perspective, OBE, Bloom's Taxonomy
