Abstract:
Sustainable development of energy and electric power is the primary task to support China’s high-quality economic and social development. Therefore, talent cultivation in the electric power industry is indispensable. Under the background of emerging engineering education, North China Electric Power University, as the cradle of the cultivation of outstanding talents in the electric power industry, took the lead in proposing and constructing the cultivation mode of compound applied chemistry talents based on the concept of “green power”, and successfully applied it to the reform and practice of undergraduate teaching. The practice enables students not only to master the application background and engineering practical skills of electric power environmental protection technology, but also to have the innovative ability of collaborative analysis and solving complex multi-pollutant control problems. The cultivation of high-quality applied chemistry talents in the new era would serve the development of the country.

Abstract:
Based on the national first-class online course of inorganic chemistry, the online and offline hybrid classroom is carried out by integrating with PBL (Problem-Based Learning) teaching mode. A PBL problem is designed to explore the related inorganic chemistry knowledge in “carbon emission peak and carbon neutralization”. The students start with the chemical reaction process respected to the CO2 production, analyze the chemical reaction principle related to the new CO2 conversion technology aiming at reducing carbon emissions, and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of different CO2 conversion technologies. With the help of PBL teaching mode, the students may well integrate the theory and practice, and consolidate the theoretical foundation, as well as improve the students’ learning ability and problem-solving ability. Moreover, through the introduction of ideological and political education, the students can also find the progress in science and technology in our country, which realizes the moral cultivation of the course teaching process.

Abstract:
While artificial intelligence technology creates opportunities for the improvement of teaching models, its application is limited because of certain challenges. Modern information technology should be used to construct a new teaching environment, improve teaching quality, and train first-class talents. Pain points against the traditional teaching problems in teaching practice, which are based on the fundamental task of Khalid Ents centered on the development of teaching philosophy in students, adhere to the “resources as the base, the ability for this, the practice of bridge” concept, optimize the teaching content, reconstruct the four-module knowledge system, and embody the three levels, namely, “qualitative analysis–quantitative calculation–practical application”. This approach innovates the teaching mode, adopts different teaching methods for different knowledge modules, is based on the principles of students’ independent inquiry, improves problem solving skills, and reconstructs the roles of teachers and students. The practice of promoting learning by evaluation enhances the mutual promotion of learning evaluation under the guidance of structure of the observed learning outcome (SOLO) methods, realizes the effective evaluation of students’ knowledge depth and thinking level, and allows the exploration of a multi-level teaching model that integrates theory and practice as well as knowledge and application.

Abstract:
The development of information technology has constantly transformed classroom teaching in recent years. With the aim of addressing deficiencies in industrial analytical chemistry courses, we constructed and implemented online and offline mixed teaching based on the “teaching is the core, learning is the fundamental” concept, which focuses on “learning”. “Layered, interactive, generative” goals were first established, after which course content that focused on job requirements was developed, and “real, open, interactive, dialogue” mixed teaching activities were then designed. Finally, we established a multiple evaluation system based on reflection and perception. While practice results show that specific results were achieved through course reform, many problems remain; hence further improvement is required.

Abstract:
As a guiding framework for course implementation, traditional course syllabuses can no longer meet the demands of engineering education accreditation. Against this backdrop, there is a pressing need to establish a new set of standards regarding curriculum construction. In this article, we introduce a standardized three-step procedure for the design of the Polymer Physics course syllabus based on engineering accreditation standards, in which the teaching methods and assessment tasks are aligned to the learning activities. First, the learning outcomes are set up to scaffold the course-specific graduate attributes. Second, appropriate teaching materials and strategies are selected according to the learning outcomes. Finally, assessment methods and grading criteria are developed to scientifically measure learning achievement. This standardized syllabus not only guarantees the desired learning outcomes, but serves as a model for other course syllabuses.

Abstract:
The teaching mode of science and education integration is the inevitable choice for college teachers to combine scientific research projects with teaching under the condition of “emerging engineering education”. Three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical MnO2 catalysts are prepared by hydrothermal method and used to the catalytic oxidation of VOCs, and the whole experiment is introduced into undergraduate teaching. Furthermore, the experiment includes “literature research → group discussion → catalyst preparation → activity evaluation and material characterization → experimental data analysis and discussion → scientific research report presentation”, etc., which strengthens the grasp of theoretical knowledge, cultivates the practical ability and improves the innovation capacity for students. Besides, we try to achieve the goal of cultivating advanced applied technology talents with excellent teamwork spirit and innovative awareness via the teaching concept of science and education integration.

Abstract:
The startup of new agricultural science projects in China provides the new development opportunities for the universities and their specialty as well as course reforms. Because of the serious shortage of chemical knowledge in the courses of environmental, geotechnical and ecological protection related to agricultural and rural infrastructure of civil engineering in new agricultural science, this paper systematically analyzes and optimizes the course contents, frame and structures of basic chemical knowledge in related courses of civil engineering. After years of teaching practice, the curriculum reform has greatly improved the chemical knowledge application in engineering design and practical ability of civil engineering students, and is proved to provide a good theoretical and methodological guidance for engineering practice.

Abstract:
Basic chemistry is the first basic course for medical students. Most students still believe that basic chemistry course is only an extension and expansion of the high school, and there is no real established relationship between basic chemistry and clinical medicine. Therefore, they are not interested in what they have learned for lacking the initiative. “Module-topics” teaching is proposed in this study to integrate the basic chemistry course of clinical medicine with the follow-up professional courses. The construction and practice of the “modules-topics” teaching mode for the basic chemistry course were reported based on four aspects: content, method, feedback, and evaluation. The contents were divided into seven teaching modules: solution, colloid, thermodynamics and kinetics, electrochemistry, material structure and force, coordination compounds, and ultraviolet spectroscopy. Each module proposes several “topics”. Different teaching modes were cooperated with different modules and topics. The students’ learning status was tracked through feedback, and the evaluation mode will, in turn, improve the content and teaching mode. The teaching of basic chemistry can be adapted to the development of modern medical science and serve medicine better by integrating medical courses and basic chemistry courses.
