Abstract:

This paper probes into the differences between undergraduate and postgraduate in teaching content and mode of environmental chemistry. It puts forward that undergraduate teaching is based on teaching the basic theory, with pollution incident as the breakthrough point. Undergraduate teaching emphasizes systematicness, interestingness and characteristic, adopting methods of problem teaching, case teaching and video teaching. However, postgraduate teaching mainly sums up knowledge points, focus on the research hotspot and frontier problems and emphasizes bridging, initiative and applicability. It adopts methods of interactive teaching, experience teaching and literature induction, etc.

Key words: Undergraduate and postgraduate, Differences, Environmental chemistry, Teaching content, Teaching mode
