[Exploration for effective teaching methods to promote students' learning interest in genetics experiment].

The students' interest in genetic experiments was promoted effectively by adding more genetic projects with research or autonomous selections, adopting the vivid and interesting case and problem-based teaching methods, using the teaching philosophy of diversity to design experimental teaching tools, and taking other comprehensive teaching methods.

[Promotion of tuition quality in Genetics by developing an excellent instructional system].

This article, which is based on the requirements for developing the course of Genetics as an outstanding course, summarizes the experience of engendering an excellent instructional system, expatiates on the effects of its application to the teaching process of "Genetics" and next step work for continuing this instructional system. The course quality of "Genetics" has been improved under the excellent instructional system by including different teaching methods, renovating the teaching contents, innovating the teaching means, developing a practical courseware, writing extractive textbooks, reforming experimental teaching, and constructing an instructional network, together with teaching methods related to scientific research.

[Improving experimental teaching facilities and opening up of laboratories in order to raise experimental teaching quality of genetics].

Advanced teaching facilities and the policy of opening laboratories to students play an important role in raising the quality in the experimental teaching of Genetics. This article introduces the superiority of some advanced instruments and equipment (such as digital microscope mutual laboratory system, flow cytometry, and NIRSystems) in the experimental teaching of genetics, and illustrates with examples the significance of exposing students to experiments in developing their creative consciousness and creative ability. This article also offers some new concepts on the further improvement upon teaching in the laboratory.

[Exploration and practice of inquiring teaching for the experiments of genetics].

Aiming for fostering talents with the sense and ability of creation, the current wave of experimental teaching reform demands significant improvements in genetics. We proposed a train of thoughts about transforming the testing and verifying experiments of genetics into inquiring forms with comprehensive or designing property, and gave some examples to carry out inquiring teaching for the experiments of genetics.

[Improvement and optimization for "genetics" course teaching].

"Genetics" is one of the main courses for the study scheme of undergraduate students in university. This paper pointed out some problems found in the teaching process according to the characteristics of "Genetics" course. At the same time, the thought on the construction of "Genetics" course were discussed concerning the reform of course contents, the improvement of teaching method, the creation of teaching CAI (computer assisted instruction), the compile of electronic edition for teaching materials, the evaluation of teaching level, the innovation of experimental contents and the methods for improving the teaching effect.
