Abstract:

The 13th five-year plan of education informatization's requirements and the Ministry of Education's "experimental plan for training top students in basic disciplines" note the need to fully integrate the information on internet technology and basic chemistry laboratory teaching. They also note the importance of building a virtual simulation laboratory platform that is based on basic theoretical knowledge such as chiral catalysis and drug synthesis, both of which we are committed to. Traditional basic chemistry laboratory limitations with regard to the teaching time, space and safety should be overcome. In addition, teaching methods and connotation of the chemistry laboratory should be enriched to enhance students' autonomy, practicality, and innovativeness in terms of participating in basic chemistry in the laboratory. Further, innovation in personnel training mechanisms in basic chemistry subjects should be promoted, and the fundamental task of establishing morality and cultivating talents in higher education in the new era should be seen to. In this regard, the problems and difficulties experienced in relation to virtual laboratory teaching were analyzed, and the role of the virtual simulation platform in chemistry laboratory teaching was discussed.
