摘要
科学类通识课程是高校通识教育中的重要组成部分.本文介绍了清华大学"生物钟与健康"科学类通识课程的建设情况,从课程建设的必要性出发,介绍课程的教学内容设计和评价标准,分析课程开课情况,并对未来课程规划进行讨论:课程已开设3个学期,选课学生已覆盖了全校27个院系,学生评教成绩优异.通过课程学习,学生自述生活习惯有明显改善,对生物学研究的思维方式和方法的理解有显著提升;课程在教学内容和教学方法上有关键创新点.本门课程建设的思路和方法,对高校科学类通识课程建设具有借鉴意义.
Abstract
General education in natural sciences is a critical component in higher education.In this article,I introduced the exploration and practice of curriculum construction of"Biological Clock and Health"at Tsinghua University.The course has been open to students for 3 semesters so far.Students who selected the course come from 27 departments of the university.The students provided positive feedbacks after taking this class,including self-report of improved sleep quality and better understanding of the research logic and methods in life sciences.The logic and methods of the construction of"Biological Clock and Health"described in this article provide insights to the construction of other courses in natural sciences of general education.
