Liang, Liang; Yan, Xian-Chun; Cao, Xiu-Li; He, Lin; Zheng, Min-Hua; Qin, Hong-Yan; Han, Hua – Journal of Biological Education, 2023
With the better understanding of human genome and genetic contributions to human complex diseases, more and more clinical genetic tests have been developed for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of human diseases. This has raised new challenges to classroom teaching of medical genetics (MG) in medical education of undergraduates, who are…

Shan, Jianying; Shen, Jie; Dong, Li; Xu, Yifan; Li, Honglin; Zhong, Lichao; Tang, Hao – Journal of Biological Education, 2023
Human ageing and age-associated diseases are among the greatest challenges and financial burdens faced by developed countries. Unfortunately, undergraduate students often do not experience any laboratory training in ageing research in the current laboratory curriculum of majors in biology, biotechnology, or medicine. In this study, we developed…

Zhao, Caifeng; Zhang, Shan; Cui, Huanhuan; Hu, Wenjie; Dai, Guo – Journal of Biological Education, 2023
Probing children's understanding of science concepts has been a focus of research in science education since the 1980s. In the process of learning, learners often produce many conceptions that differ from established scientific knowledge, which are commonly labelled as alternative conceptions (ACs). Knowing these ACs, their prevalence, nature,…

Assessment of a Flipped Classroom Model Based on Microlectures in a Medical Molecular Biology Course
Kong, Fanli; Li, Zhengyi; Su, Xiaoming; Zhuang, Wenyue – Journal of Biological Education, 2022
This study aims to compare the influences of traditional lectures (TL) with a flipped classroom (FC). Two consecutive classes of students from a laboratory medicine speciality learned medical molecular biology through the flipped or nonflipped (TL) approach with online microlectures. We inspected examination scores, learning experiences and…

Li, Bing; Jia, Xiaotao; Chi, Yuxia; Liu, Xinli; Jia, Baolei – Journal of Biological Education, 2020
Experimental courses for undergraduate students majoring in biochemistry or related subjects often do not provide students with systematic and research-based experiences. To help students develop abilities related to laboratory techniques, data analysis, and systematic thought in biology, we performed an exploratory program that employs…

Liu, Ning; Xu, Zheng – Journal of Biological Education, 2018
Despite the importance of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in practical teaching and the inconsistency of teacher quality in different regions in China, there is little empirical evidence for specific differences in teachers' PCK in different districts in China. This study attempted to address this gap through analysis of practical teaching…

Ritchelle W. Origenes – Journal of Biological Education Indonesia (Jurnal Pendidikan Biologi Indonesia), 2023
Updated scientific material is needed to incorporate research-based COVID-19 interventions and strategies into basic education. This meta-analysis examined basic education students' COVID-19 Knowledge, Attitude, and Practices (KAP) across the globe. This study identified KAPs needed to integrate COVID-19 into Basic Education after the…

Wu, Yazhou; Zhang, Ling; Liu, Ling; Zhang, Yanqi; Liu, Xiaoyu; Yi, Dong – Journal of Biological Education, 2015
It is clear that the teaching of medical statistics needs to be improved, yet areas for priority are unclear as medical students' learning and application of statistics at different levels is not well known. Our goal is to assess the attitudes of medical students toward the learning and application of medical statistics, and discover their…

Lu, Qun; Liu, Enshan – Journal of Biological Education, 2012
With the development and implementation of new curriculum standards, the field tests of education reform in senior high schools began in 2004 in four pilot provinces in mainland China. After five years of the reform, it is necessary to know how and to what extent the curriculum standard guides test classroom instruction. The present study was…
