students who make specimens in the laboratory.
liberal arts students in the lab made yogurt and amber
3 25, the early morning, the original cold mountain Dasheng Courtyard South Tower began to bustle up, the two classes of 60 students from the Shandong University hxing long mountain, software park, Hongjia building, Baotu Spring and other school areas, and some students even get up more than 6 in the morning, only to get up, only for A common goal: to attend an interesting biology experiment class in the central campus. "
" high school biology textbooks will talk about tissue culture, but they all stay in textbooks and courseware, and can't do experiments in person and feel the process of differentiation into individual cells. " In the interesting biology experiment class, Professor Xiang Fengning, director of Shanda University of science and technology, said.
Professor Feng to plant tissue culture and micro specimen production. After explaining the knowledge of plant tissue culture, she asked the students to start the test tube Pendant of the DIY personality.
plant tissue culture and tube seedling induction are only one of the 8 experiments of the interesting biological experiment course. In addition, the collection and analysis of human electrophysiological signals, micronuclear test of mutagenic substances in the environment, microscopes under microscope, the separation and preparation of casein in milk, molecular identification of human sex, colibacilli Figure and induced luminescence, preparation of artificial amber and plant appreciation.
each experiment is a class with four classes. Although the course is only half a day, the preparation process is a bit complicated. "One or two months ahead of time, students are required to transfer cells from the culture dish to a small test tube containing nutrient solution." Feng Yu, a lecturer at the College of biology, said she had done a lot of preparatory work before class.
Science, engineering, medicine, and even liberal arts students have joined the biology experiment class. "The course is very interesting. In previous lessons, I made yogurt and made amber." Chen Xiuxin, from the journalism school, said that although he was a liberal arts student, it was interesting to teach in a biology laboratory.
the first time it was so interesting that science was so interesting
"the earliest was a biology experiment at Zhejiang University. I went to visit and study, and I wanted to open one at school." Guo Weihua, vice president of Shanda University of life sciences and director of the interesting biology experiment, said. So in 2015, the college opened classes, and each class took more than ten students.
course is open to undergraduate students of mountain Daquan, covering most basic subjects in life science, such as animal, plant, microorganism, human physiology, biochemistry, genetics, molecular, ecology and so on. Through more than a dozen scientific, interesting, closely related to life and easy to operate biological experiments, let students in the study of biological science, understanding and thinking of the importance and necessity of the harmonious development of human and nature.
with the gradual formation of the curriculum system, students have gradually picked up the course. Many students leave a message saying, "for the first time, I know science can be so interesting" and "science can be very artistic". The 8 classes of this course are all full of students when the credits are greatly reduced.
in Guo Weihua's view, the interesting biology experiment class in Shanda is different from that in Zhejiang University. "Zhejiang University's curriculum is mainly based on biological experiment teaching center, and we are all the teachers in different disciplines in the school to participate in the support." Guo Weihua said.
according to the statistics of the Academy of biology, at present, in addition to ordinary lecturers, the 8 experiments of the whole course are taught by 4 professors, 3 associate professors, and 1 senior engineers, which can be said to be the luxury of the lineup. These include Professor Ling Jian ya, the State Key Laboratory of microbial technology, Professor Xiang Fengning of plant cell and molecular laboratory and so on.
"teaching is more important than saying," good teachers are good teaching materials. Famous teachers and famous students walk into the classroom is the best education for students. " In the view of Zhao Bingxin, the dean of the undergraduate college of Shandong University, the interesting biology experiment course has well practise the student centered teaching idea and integrates the inquiry, interactive and experiential teaching into the classroom.
is this course of playing learning. The Institute of life sciences has signed a digital textbook publishing contract with the publishing house, and Related videos, PPT, pictures and manuscripts have been delivered to the publishing house for typesetting.
