Multimedia with its unique advantages is more and more used in the teaching, especially in the teaching of Principles of Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). The course is the required course for the students of petroleum engineering specialty. Through the vivid and intuitive multimedia teaching methods, the students can be able to transcend time and space to understand and grasp of macro-and micro-oil displacement mechanisms of EOR methods, procedures of indoor experiments and situation of field tests. And thus lays a solid foundation for the students to engage in practical work and scientific researching of EOR in the future.
