生物类专业“文献检索与科技论文写作”课程教学问题及对策探索

Problems and Countermeasures of Teaching Reform of“Literature Retrieval and Scientific Paper Writing”of Biology Major

生物类专业“文献检索与科技论文写作”是培养生物学本科人才的重要工具课。该课程存在课时有限、教学内容与时俱进不够,实践课占比偏少、实践强化训练不足,考核方式单一、实践能力考查不足,学生对科技论文的结构和评价模式理解不深等教学问题。以湖南科技大学生物学本科专业该课程教学为例,从转变观念、强化实践导向、优化教学内容、“线上线下”“课内课外”一体化立体教学探究、基于任务驱动的学习小组合作学习和实施多元综合评价体系等方面探索改革实践,极大地提高了学生文献检索和科技论文写作能力、学生学习的主动性和创新能力,有助于促进综合性应用型生命科学本科人才的培养。

“Literature retrieval and scientific paper writing”is an important tool course for biology undergraduates.However,there are many problems in the teaching process,such as limited time of the course,insufficient teaching contents to keep pace with the times,small proportion of practice,lack of the practice training,single examination method,insufficient practical ability examination,and the students poor understanding of the structure and the evaluation mode of the scientific paper and so on.Taking the course teaching of biology major in Hunan University of Science and Technology as an example,reform paths are explored from the perspectives of changing concepts,strengthening practical orientation,optimizing teaching contents,integrating three-dimensional teaching of“online and offline”and“in-class and after-class”,task-driven group learning,and implementation of multiple comprehensive evaluation system and so on,which has greatly improved students abilities of literature retrieval and scientific paper writing,enhanced their learning initiative and innovation ability and helped to promote the cultivation of comprehensive application-oriented undergraduate talents of life science.
