Abstract

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence and modern educational technology, the traditional classroom teaching model can no longer meet the requirements of today’s higher education for the comprehensive quality training of students. Especially in interdisciplinary majors such as biopharmaceuticals, relying solely on traditional teaching methods is no longer sufficient to improve students’ professional ability and social responsibility effectively. In this context, the deep integration of ideological and political education with professional course teaching has become an important issue in education reform. In response to this demand, this paper proposes a teaching model that combines the SPOC (Small Private Online Course) platform with the flipped classroom, aiming to enhance student’s learning interest, professional ability, and social responsibility through the combination of online self-learning and classroom interactive discussion. This study selected 40 biopharmaceutical students from Wuhan East Lake University as the research subjects and used the literature data method, questionnaire survey method, teaching experiment method, and classroom observation method to comprehensively explore the application effect of the teaching model based on the combination of the SPOC platform and the flipped classroom in the ideological and political education of biopharmaceutical majors. The results show that 90% of the students support this model, believing that it can effectively stimulate learning enthusiasm and help students better understand the core knowledge of the major, especially in the fields of drug development, molecular biology, and bioengineering, and enhance the penetration of ideological and political education.
