Abstract:

Traditional university chemistry laboratories usually feature tedious teaching process, which may result in passive study, less or no learning interaction, and the lack of independent thinking, operation and innovation. This is bad for us to achieve the targets of comprehensive training upon freshmen in universities. With the rapid development of internet technology, a variety of information-based teaching modes have been established. Course Cubic system can merge several teaching modes, such as experiment preview, WeChat platform, and flipped class into a student-centered overall process and intelligent teaching mode. Students can conduct practice tests before experiments, record and upload experimental data in class, and carry out mutual evaluations after class. The practice shows that Course Cubic system can improve the efficiency of experiment teaching and greatly promote students' self-directed learning, increasing the interaction in experiment teaching.

Key words: University chemistry laboratory, Teaching mode, Course cubic, Self-directed learning
