Application of trial-and-error learning in experimental teaching of medical biology
At the beginning of the 20th century,Sandeck,a famous American psychologist,proposed trial-and-error theory,which provides an in-depth explanation of human learning processes.The Experimental Teaching Center of Capital Medical University applies trial-and-error theory to the experimental teaching of medical biology,in which both practical operation and virtual simulation system are adopted.Teachers design misleading scenarios,the students try,free to make errors,then they learn to identify errors and do research.After these procedures,students can firmly grasp the key points of the experiments,increase learning interest,raise scientific research awareness,and improve learning efficiency.
