Design and practice of biological reaction engineering flipped classroom in applied undergraduate colleges

Abstract:

This study aims to explore and refine the teaching aspects of a flipped classroom approach for biological reaction engineering. The study encompasses three iterations of teaching practice, focusing on key elements such as theme content selection, implementation process, evaluation and effectiveness. By integrating relevant industry and societal topics with course's professional knowledge, students are encouraged to independently collect data, analyze and discuss findings, and present their work in group. Comprehensive literacy of students is assessed through discussion reports, defense reports, utilization of new tools, and team cooperation. Analysis of student performance reveals that the design and implementation of the flipped classroom approach significantly enhances student motivation to learn, improves scores, and supports the achievement of course objectives. Therefore, the methodology presented in this study may serve as a reference for implementing teaching reforms in core courses in applied undergraduate colleges, thereby fostering well-round individuals with strong theoretical foundation, innovative analytical skills, and excellent teamwork abilities.
