Abstract:Experimental teaching plays a key role in training applied talents in local university. Flipped classroom is a type of teaching strategy that students complete self-study before class and engage in discussions with mentor in class. Here, in order to apply the flipped classroom to experimental teaching, one experiment named ‘sausage making’ in the course of Food Fermentation Technology was performed, and an online course platform was used to deliver learning contents. This teaching practice including several parts, such as completing tasks before class, group discussion and experimental design in class, and making video after class. This flipped classroom model not only motivated the students to study more efficiently by themselves, but also improved their critical thinking and innovative skills. In the meanwhile, it also provided reference for the reform of experimental teaching.
