Abstract: The “Chemistry Research Training II” course is a mandatory course for senior students in the Department of Chemistry at Tianjin University. This course introduces an innovative “self-directed learning” model where students form teams based on their interests and strengths, select their research topics, and design their own research plans. Under the guidance of instructors, students conduct exploratory research and their performance is evaluated through group presentations and peer reviews. The course is highly praised by students for its rich content and novel teaching methods. This course explores new teaching models, enhances students’ research and practical skills, and makes a valuable contribution to the cultivation of top-tier innovative talents.
