Intergrating problem-based-learning with flipped classroom teaching in "Principles of chemical engineering" for biological engineering undergraduates

Abstract

New engineering program requires training models that conform acceptable time span and principles of engineering education. Considering the program "Principles of chemical engineering" and the limitations of traditional teaching methods, we integrated problem-based learning method and flipped classroom teaching model to reform the course. Through a three-stage systematic teaching design including knowledge learning before class, knowledge internalization in class, and consolidation and expansion after class, we effectively stimulated students' interest and enthusiasm in learning, cultivated students' independent learning ability and engineering thinking, and achieved good teaching effect. It can provide reference for the construction of "Principles of chemical engineering" course and training of engineering talents in agricultural colleges.
