Promoting teaching quality by portfolio assessment in Cell Engineering classroom / 生物工程学报

ABSTRACT

We introduce the portfolio assessment into the classroom teaching reform in the curriculum of Cell Engineering, a specialty course in bioengineering & biotechnology. We established a complete classroom evaluation system that was divided the classroom assessment system of portfolio into four stages including the preparation stage, training stage, implementation stage and exhibition stage. We also discuss the feasibility and necessity of implementing the portfolio evaluation method in the course of cell engineering, the construction of evaluation system, and the key points and matters needing attention in the implementation process. The classroom reform is very productive, not only the classroom atmosphere has been activated, students' learning initiative and autonomy has been enhanced, but also the students' ability to analyze and solve professional problems related to cell engineering technology has been improved. The implementation of classroom teaching reform of this course can provide reference for other similar professional courses in colleges and universities.
