Abstract:
Objective To explore the thinking and methods of integration curriculum. Methods The content of theory and experiment of the biochemistry,molecular biology, cell biology, medical genetics are optimized, streamlined and integrated to form theory course and experiment experimental course of " basis fo life", namely"four in two". Forming a teaching team across departments, multi-disciplinary teaching is carried out. The theory takes " cell-moleculeinheritance-disorders" as the main line, interspersed with " flipped class model" . The experimental course deletes repeated confirmatory experiments and adds some comprehensive experiments. The course assessment and performance evaluation are carried out with the combination of formative assessment and summative evaluation. Results The teaching mode of integration curriculum has been carried out in the experimental class of undergraduate students for two years. Compared with the theoretical examination scores, the results of the experimental class were significantly higher than that of the control class, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05) . 24 students took part in research in experimental class, but only 10 students did in control class.Conclusion The implementation of integrated curriculum can promote student’s independent learning, improve student’s ability to analyze and solve problems, and mobilize student’s interest in scientific research practice. It provides useful reference and experience for the integration of basic course in the life science field of higher medical colleges.
