大多数化学教育者都同意,深入了解非共价相互作用的性质对于化学学习是至关重要的。然而,数十年的研究表明,学生们对这些互动一直存在错误的想法。我们与化学、生物和生物化学教育工作者合作开发了一个结构图,以指导与生化环境中非共价相互作用的物理基础相关的教学和评估资源的开发。这张地图使用了关于学生学习的数据和专家对非共价相互作用的看法,形成了一个框架,为与这一基本概念相关的教与学提供了详细的路线图。本文介绍了构建图的发展及其在生物化学教学实践中的应用。由于生物化学依赖于在必修课中所学概念的应用,该构造图可用于广泛的课程,包括普通化学、生物学入门、有机化学和生物化学。
Most chemistry educators agree that deep understanding of the nature of noncovalent interactions is essential for learning in chemistry. Yet decades of research have shown that students have persistent incorrect ideas about these interactions. We have worked in collaboration with a community of chemistry, biology, and biochemistry educators to develop a construct map to guide development of instructional and assessment resources related to the physical basis of noncovalent interactions in a biochemical context. This map was devised using data about student learning and expert perspectives on noncovalent interactions, resulting in a framework that provides a detailed roadmap for teaching and learning related to this essential concept. Here we describe the development of the construct map and our use of it to reform our biochemistry teaching practice. Because biochemistry relies on application of concepts learned in prerequisite courses, this construct map could be useful for wide range of courses including general chemistry, introductory biology, organic chemistry, and biochemistry.
