Abstract:

The new course design takes the "elements and periodic law" as its main body. The lines are the three development backgrounds of the origin of elements, atomic weight determination, and formation of the periodic table. The two sides are the application of periodic law in materials, geology, mineral flotation, and the distribution of biological elements, hydride, carbide, and superconducting elements in the periodic table. Thus, the entire content constitutes a new logic and structural framework of "one main body, two sides, and three lines" to promote the systematicity and integrity of knowledge. This approach can stimulate students' interest in learning and broaden their knowledge horizon by introducing advanced scientific research results and theories into undergraduate curriculum design. Integrating the history of science, the dedication of scientists, especially the great contribution of Chinese scientists to the progress of world science throughout the entire course can promote the growth of students' scientific and moral quality. Therefore, the students can establish a socialist outlook on the world, values, and life. Accordingly, the integration of "knowledge, ability, and quality" can be implemented.

Key words: Periodic law, Curriculum design, Organic integration, Talents cultivation
