Application of flipped classroom combined with a case-based learning in genetics courses

Abstract

In recent years, with the development of gene testing and new drug research, the diagnosis and treatment of inherited diseases have made rapid progress, corresponding to higher requirements for genetics education. As a teacher of medical genetics, the author joined the course remodeling during last 10 years from a web-based study of genetic disorders to a “case-based learning” supported by flipped classroom in order to optimize teaching effects and learning outcomes. The result of this remodeling project proposes a new strategy to guide perspectives course design in future.
