Abstract:
The teaching mode was explored under the network environment, and a hybrid teaching mode, which combined the traditional teaching and network teaching, was constructed. The network teaching resources of the biochemistry were co-constructed by teachers and students, and introduced into the classroom in order that the teaching methods were more efficient, the teaching resources were more abundant, the assessments were more objective and the learning of students was more active. It was shown that the efficiency and quality of teaching and the self-learning abilities of students were also improved by the teaching mode.

Abstract:
The paper focuses on using diverse teaching methods and heuristic method to guide students to cognize social life with chemical thinking in non-chemical engineering majors at Inner Mongolia University of Technology (IMUT). In such a way, we not only taught the theoretical knowledge of chemistry, but also realized the "student-centered" teaching philosophy and high quality chemical general education.

Abstract:
Humic acid is the major component of natural organic matters, which possesses a complex structure and multiple emission characteristics. Considering the research topics of humic acid or other natural organic matters, humic acid was used for steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence experimental teaching. Students can acquire the knowledge about the Raman scattering and inner filtering effects on fluorescence measurements, the effects of excitation energy on the emission spectrum, and fluorescence lifetime.

The undergraduate innovative experiment plan is an important part of the Quality Project in colleges and universities. In the light of problem-based learning, this paper presents a comprehensive innovation experiment, that is, extraction and identification of rutin, preparation of different dosage forms and the correlation with in vivo release. Through this experiment, students can experience complete scientific research essentials, including searching literature, explaining experimental principle, establishing research ideas and strategies, preparing and characterizing samples, processing data, analyzing results, writing and submitting the experiment report. The key knowledges of extraction and purification of natural products, preparation of capsules and tablets, chemical properties of the matter, in vivo medicine release and other relevant knowledges can be fully grasped. Practices show that this experiment can effectively enhance students' comprehensive experimental skills and foster their innovative spirit and scientific research ability.

Abstract:
The reaction of lead with nitric acid is very complicated. In inorganic chemistry textbooks and the related materials, the descriptions of the reaction between lead and nitric acid are not entirely identical, which will not be beneficial for students to master basic properties of lead in the study of inorganic chemistry. Aiming at this problem in inorganic chemistry teaching materials, through a lot of experiments, we studied the conditions of the reaction between lead and nitric acid, including the effects of nitric acid concentration, reaction temperature and reaction time, and investigated the solubility changes of lead nitrate in different concentrations of nitric acid. The reaction products of lead with concentrated nitric acid were characterized by infrared spectroscopy (IR) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The essence that lead is easily soluble in dilute nitric acid and slightly soluble in concentrated nitric acid is clarified.

Abstract:
Accurate analysis of chemical equilibria involves solving complex equations, which requires adequate knowledge on algorithms and programming languages. People who major in analytical chemistry often lack such knowledge. As a result, it is difficult to adopt accurate analysis in analytical chemistry on a large scale. To overcome such difficulty, we developed a software package with Matlab. The software solves complex equations efficiently through an intuitive interface, a graph, and natural interactions, whilst requires little programming on users. This paper introduced theory and features of the software package, and explained its usage in detail with 3 examples of complex chemical equilibria. An Android version was also developed and provided free of charge.

Abstract:
Molecular orbital (MO) theory is one of the most important theories to understand the electronic structure and microscopic properties, and it is also the key and difficult point in the teaching of inorganic chemistry and theoretical chemistry for undergraduate and graduate students. Since there is lack of the intuitive and quantitative diagrams for the formation of molecular orbitals from the atomic orbitals, as well as the s-p orbital mixing and the energy level crossing in the present textbook, students have difficulty in understanding the MO theory. In this paper, we introduce the computational chemistry into the teaching of the MO theory. Based on the theoretical results calculated by Gaussian 03 program, the images and energy levels of molecular orbitals for F2, O2, N2, HF and CO are obtained and analyzed, which makes the abstract theory quantitative, intuitive, and easily to understand. Correspondingly, the rules of molecular orbital bonding and electron filling are well explained, which helps students to better understand the MO theory, especially for the s-p orbital mixing and the energy level crossing of σ2pz and π2p orbitals. According to the molecular orbital analysis of F2, O2, N2, HF and CO, the electronic configuration of CO2 is analyzed by using MO theory. On the basis of the teaching practice above, the students' initiativity and enthusiasm are greatly improved, and the effective learning of MO theory is realized.

Abstract:
In order to improve the quality of laboratory teaching in colleges and universities, we explored the innovation of laboratory teaching methods. We use the technology of Balabolka and Flash on the Internet, and the technology of "mask" and button making for producing the voice animations. We shared the voice animations with students. This improves the experimental interest of college students, and helps to achieve flipped classroom teaching. The voice animations also provides a more diverse internet education resources. These speech animation experiments are costeffective and enviromental-friendly, and easy to manufacture and operate.
