生物化学与分子生物学微信教学公众号:现状与建议

The WeChat Official Accounts for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Teaching:Current Situation and Proposals

在教育信息化2.0时代背景下,微信公众号因其免费、开放、个性、交互、实时等特色和优势,被很多机构和教师采纳,用于教学服务。生物化学与分子生物学的知识复杂、抽象,理论和技术发展快,是公认的难教难学课程。而微信公众号可通过图文、动画、视频、聊天及对接第3方软件等方式,将生物化学的知识难点简单化、生动化,并以微课学习、图文学习、微测试、微实验等开展移动教学。2015年至今,我国共创建生物化学与分子生物学的教学公众号约50个,微信公众号已经成为生物化学教学圈的新潮流。本文主要介绍了“我爱生化”、“医学生化与分子”、“漫画生物化学”等10个公众号的特色资源和目录架构,展示了基于公众号的多元化教学和服务方式。另外,本文还梳理归纳了公众号管理的经验,提出要“以学生为中心”、围绕学习全过程开展教学服务,坚持原创和目录管理等,为优化公众号的资源与服务提供建议。本文旨在通过对我国生物化学与分子生物学教学公众号的介绍和建议,促进生化教学圈的资源共享、互学、交流和建设,推动教学理念更新、教学方法改进和教学质量提升。

WeChat official accounts(WOA)are widely used for education by organizations and teachers in the era of educational informatization 2.0.As a new platform,WOA provides free,interactive,attractive,adaptable,portable,sustainable,and more participatory teaching styles.The course of biochemistry and molecular biology(BMB)is inherently complicated,abstruse,and fast-growing in scientific and technical innovation,which made it hard for both teaching and learning.Using WOA,teachers can simplify and sparkle complicated BMB contents in multitudinous styles,including graphic text,animation,videos,dialogues,and files via third-party Apps.WOA is also adaptable for mobile teaching due to its compatibility for micro-lecture learning,online exam,and experiments learning,etc.Almost 50 WOA have been created for BMB teaching from 2015,which made the WOA based teaching a popular mode in China.This review introduced the content and featured resources of the ten popular BMB WOA,including“I love BIOCHEM”,“NCUbiochem”,and“Cartoon biochemistry”,etc.,by which described the diverse teaching and services mode via WOA platform.Furthermore,the authors summarized their experiences in setting up and managing WOA like original creation and directory management,and suggested a student-centered and entire process learning principle to achieve better improvement in teaching.Our present study aims to accelerate the communication and resources sharing for BMB education in China,promote the revolution of philosophy and methods in teaching,and finally improve the quality of education.
