Abstract:

This study investigates and analyzes the curriculum design, teaching content, and assessment methods of inorganic chemistry courses in seven Russell Group universities in the UK. By highlighting the similarities and differences in course characteristics and teaching methodologies between the two nations, the findings offer insights to inform potential teaching reforms for inorganic chemistry courses in Chinese universities.

Key words: Inorganic chemistry, Comparison of Chinese and UK universities, Course content, Teaching reform
