Teaching strategy for course unit of Plant Pathogenic Fungi in Plant Pathology

Abstract:

To improve the teaching efficacy of plant pathogenic fungi unit in course of Plant Pathology, the connotation, evolutionary history of Fungi and True fungi, and the content arrangement in different textbooks compiled by different authors were systemically and logically reorganized in this paper. Our opinion from the analysis is proposed that suitable textbook and in-class teaching methods should be selected and organized specifically according to the different audients, teaching plan and teaching objectives. In other words, the lectures for the major of plant protection in an agricultural university should be systemically designed upon pre-requested course of Biological Taxonomy for a clear awareness to the concepts of Fungi and True fungi. For the other majors such as the major of plant production, better explanation of the concepts in class should be better and enough. Specific teaching design and strategy will improve the teaching effect greatly and meet the requirements from different majors.
