Abstract: In the teaching of inorganic chemistry for energy chemical engineering, a new teaching model, the “Five Rings and One Heart,” has been developed in alignment with the educational philosophy of “student-centered learning” and outcome-based education (OBE). The curriculum reform is teacher-led and fully integrates the use of “Internet +” technology. It comprehensively covers the selection and development of course resources, the reform of teaching methods, and the deep integration of professional guidance with ideological and political education within the curriculum. This model encourages and motivates students to engage in active learning both online and offline, before, during, and after class, while simultaneously enhancing their overall competencies and literacy. The training goals of “imparting knowledge, cultivating skills, and promoting values” have been successfully achieved.

Key words: Inorganic chemistry, Five rings and one heart, New form of teaching, Outcome-based education, Course ideology and politics
