Resumen
The outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has forced chemistry teaching from traditional classrooms to online courses worldwide. Herein, we will share some experiences of our online teaching of inorganic chemistry. First, we investigated various teaching platforms and adjusted the online teaching approaches for helping students to be more comfortable with online teaching. During the online class, attention was paid specifically to making the teaching process more topic-focused. This also prompted teachers to interact with students and give feedback in a timely manner. With the student-centered strategy and advanced network technology, we encouraged students to consult literature reports to better digest what they have learned in class and expand their knowledge, thus leading to higher teaching quality and promoting the cultivation of their talents. The overall processes are evaluated by examination, and finally, key points after one-semester online teaching are summarized to further improve future teaching quality. This work provides some rational guidelines toward high-quality online teaching for teachers and could readily expand to courses other than inorganic chemistry.
