Abstract:

Modern developmental biology is changing everyday at a fast pace, and it also possesses the most application potential. As an important selected course for undergraduates, its most up-to-date knowledge challenges the traditional teaching method. We discussed the current situation in developmental biology teaching, introduced in detail our method of using original papers in each research area, especially the classical papers that won the Nobel Prizes, and summarized the advantages of combining students’ presentation in the classroom and their discussion on the web. We proposed some practical strategies to improve developmental biology teaching.

Key words: developmental biology, the inquiring teaching mode, teaching quality
