编写长学制药学专业普通化学教材的尝试

Our attempts in writing the general chemistry textbook for the six - year program of pharmaceutical education

考虑到国内中学化学教学的现状和非化学专业六年制学生普通化学课程的特点,我们认为在长学制药学专业普通化学教学中,不仅要使学生掌握知识、训练智力,更要重视培养智慧。为了达到这一目的,我们在编写普通化学教材过程中进行了以下尝试:①提高学生自学能力,以“现象→归纳总结→更多现象→理论……”的方式安排教学内容,并使自学与课堂讲授交叉进行;②遵循科学发展史的轨迹讲解发现和解决科学问题的过程,启发学生深入思考,使他们认识到科学发展规律,激发学生跳出教材,提出问题;③通过实例强调科学方法的重要性,包括理论方法和实验方法;④鼓励学生利用电子网络搜集有用信息和利用计算机改善计算结果。

In view of the current status of high school chemical education in China and the features of the course “General Chemistry” for six - year program students of non - chemistry specialties, we believe that for a freshman of the long - term program, to foster her/his wisdom is more important than to acquire knowledge and ability. To this goal, we have made some attempts in writing the textbook ： （1） To elevate students＇ self - taught ability, we have arranged materials in the sequence of “phenomena → generalization → extended phenomena → theory...” a way suitable for teaching activity composed of alternate self - taught part and class - teaching part ; （2）To inspire students＇ intensive thinking, we have described how chemists found and solved the scientific problems in history, and how scientific knowledge has developed step by step. Students are encouraged to jump out of the textbook and raise new questions. （3）To emphasize the importance of scientific methodology, both theoretical and experimental, through case analyses. 4）To promote the use of Internet for information and the use of computer to improve calculations.
