Abstract:
Objective To study the rationality of biochemistry teaching of liberal arts students and science students in one class and further to improve the quality of teaching.Methods A total of 138 students of seven-year traditional Chinese medicine of Grade 2013 as the objects of study,among whom there were 58 liberal arts students and 80 science students.Questionnaire were surveyed at the end of the teaching of biochemistry,including evaluation of the teaching effect and teaching reform.138 valid questionnaires were dispatched and recovered.And at the same time unified examination was carried out to both liberal arts students and science students.The t test,chi square test or the exact probability method were used to compare the data of two types of students with SPSS 19.0.Results Questionnaire survey:31.03% (18/58) arts students and 27.50% (22/80) science students felt that the class hours were not enough.48.28% (28/58) arts students thought the weak chemical base to be the main factor affecting learning,and 50.00% (40/80) science students thought that lack of interest was the most important factor.53.45% (31/58) arts and 47.50% (38/80) science students would agree that a metabolic reaction of the material was the most difficult problem.51.72% (30/58) arts students and 42.50% (34/80) science students preferred blackboard-writing.Test scores:arts and science students got average grades (70.81 ± 9.71) and (77.05 ± 8.46) respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (t=-4.02,P=0.000).Conclusions Survey results and analysis of test scores shows that teaching of liberal arts students and science students in one class is feasible.However,it is necessary to strengthen the students' chemical basis,improve their learning interest and optimize their learning methods,so as to realize the harmonious development of the students of arts and science,and to improve the overall teaching level.
