“小实验,大背景”的细胞生物学基础实验教学模式探索

Exploration of Teaching Mode of “Small Experiment,Big Background” in Basic Experiments of Cell Biology

生物学实验教学是一流人才培养的重要途径。但在传统的实验教学中,教师往往只关注提高学生的动手能力,而忽略了通过基础实验教学实现对学生科学创新思维与能力的培养。为此,在细胞生物学基础实验教学过程中,在不增加实验经费与硬件投入的情况下,通过把细胞生物学"小实验"与学科发展"大背景"相结合,将"小实验"教学内容放在培养学生实验设计能力、批判性与创新思维能力等实验教学大背景之下,以提升实验教学难度和挑战度,增强学生的学习兴趣。该模式既有助于在细胞生物学基础实验课中培养学生的实践动手能力,又能提升学生的科学创新思维等高阶能力。

Biology experiment teaching is an important way of cultivating first-class undergraduates.In the traditional experimental teaching,teachers often only focus on improving students’ practical ability,while ignore the cultivation of scientific innovative thinking and ability through basic experiments.Therefore,it is necessary to combine "small experiment" with the "big background" of subject development,and with students’ experimental design ability,as well as critical and innovative thinking ability.In this way,without increasing the experimental funds and hardware investment,it can enhance the difficulty and challenge of experimental teaching,and enhance students’ interest in learning.This teaching model not only helps to cultivate students’ practical ability,but also improves students’ high-level abilities such as scientific and innovative thinking.
