激发学生好奇心，提升微生物学实验教学效果

Stimulate students’ curiosity and enhance the effectiveness of Microbiology Experimental teaching

摘要:

好奇心是研究和学习的动力，为了在微生物学实验课程中激发并延续学生的好奇心以提高教学效果，我们尝试将“环境微生物的检测”实验与微生物的鉴定结合起来，使学生在“环境微生物的检测”实验中引发的好奇心、热情和兴趣通过鉴定自己分离的菌株而得以延伸，贯穿到整个学期的微生物学实验中。促使学生积极、主动、认真地完成每一个实验，从而加深学生对主要的微生物学实验知识点的理解和实验技能的掌握。而且，在这样的综合实验中，教学实验与科研相衔接，有利于培养学生的基本科研能力和创新精神，取得了较好的教学和科研成果。

Abstract:

Curiosity is the driving force of research and learning. Our aim is how to stimulate and continue students’ curiosity in Microbiology Experiment courses to improve teaching effectiveness. We attempt to combine “Detection of environmental microbes” with microbiological identification to comprehensive completion of the major Microbiology experiments. The curiosity, enthusiasm and interest excited from “Detection of environmental microbes” experiment were throughout the microbiological experiments by using microbiological identification. Consequently, the students were promoted to practice actively, initiatively and diligently in every experiment, and to deep understand the experimental knowledge and mastery of experimental skills. This combination between experiment teaching and extracurricular research contributes to cultivate students’ basic scientific research ability and innovative spirit, and to obtain the better teaching effect.
