Comprehensive Experimental Design and Teaching Practice Based on Specialization and Innovation Integration——Taking Reproductive Experiment as an Example
Based on the cultivation of innovative quality of animal science undergraduates,a comprehensive experimental project"effects of Kdm2a on the reproduction in mouse",which conforms to the training requirements under the background of "specialization and innovation integration",is designed and practiced. The comprehensive experiment includes the production of conditional knockout mice,genotyping,sex determination,evaluation of reproductive performance,and detection of hormone levels,which involves in most of the theoretical knowledge of animal reproduction. This comprehensive experiment also enhances students to comprehensively grasp the basic theories and techniques of animal reproduction,and stimulates their learning interest. The teaching practice has shown that this comprehensive experiment significantly improves their research abilities in self-di-rected learning,independent literature review,independent experimental design,as well as enhances their thirst for knowledge and comprehensive quality. Together,this comprehensive experiment meets the requirements of the"specialization and innovation integration"and can provide experience and guideline for other experimental courses in related disciplines.
