Reform and Application of Biochemistry Teaching Based on Formative Evaluation of Mobile Network Platform

Abstract

Objective: To explore the construction and implementation of a formative evaluation system based on the mobile network platform in biochemistry teaching. Methods: The biochemistry online course is established on “Xuexitong” mobile network platform. Based on the online course, a comprehensive formative evaluation system is constructed, including segmented and diversified evaluation before, during, and after class with the integration of online and offline to perform a formative evaluation on the biochemistry teaching for students in 2017 undergraduate medical-related majors. Results: 95.7% of the students achieved excellent scores, and 1.3% failed to pass the online periodic examination, 97.1% of the students liked the online examination method, 46.7% of the students liked the homework assigned after each class, and 28.8% of the students liked to practice once a weak, 99.6% of the students thought that Xuexitong was helpful to biochemistry study. Conclusions: The formative evaluation based on the mobile network platform is a useful evaluation method that requires further study.
