摘要

本科免疫学的学习要求学生能够保留知识、将信息应用到新的情境中以及自我评估对概念的理解。这些核心能力加强了学生的批判性思维和元认知技能,反过来又提高了他们识别知识差距和支持未来学习策略的能力。检索练习和反馈驱动的元认知是以证据为基础的教学策略,已被证明能在一系列学科和教育水平中增强知识保持和元认知,但其在免疫学本科生中的实施和对学习的影响在很大程度上仍未被探索。为此,我为一门为期 12 周的高年级本科免疫学课程设计了一个模块化的 "练习课程 "活动,该活动结合了定期检索练习和反馈驱动的元认知,以支持学生的知识保持、信息应用和元认知技能。在课程即将结束时,进行了一项调查,以评估学生对该活动是否支持免疫学学习和元认知的看法。我们还提供了教学资源,以方便将这一模块化活动调整到高等教育中不同科学学科和学习水平的课程中。

A modular activity to support knowledge retention, application, and metacognition in undergraduate immunology.

Learning in undergraduate immunology requires students to be able to retain knowledge, to apply information to new contexts, and to self-assess their understanding of concepts. These core competencies strengthen students' critical thinking and metacognitive skills which, in turn, enhances their ability to identify knowledge gaps and strategies to support future learning. Retrieval practice and feedback-driven metacognition are evidence-based teaching strategies that have been demonstrated to enhance knowledge retention and metacognition in a range of academic disciplines and levels of education, although their implementation and impact on learning in undergraduate immunology remain largely unexplored. To this end, I designed a modular "practice session" activity for a 12-week, upper-level, undergraduate immunology course that incorporates periodic retrieval practice and feedback-driven metacognition to support students' knowledge retention, application of information, and metacognitive skills. Near the end of the course, a survey was conducted to assess student perceptions on whether the activity supported learning and metacognition in immunology. Instructional resources are provided to facilitate easy adaptation of this modular activity to courses of diverse science disciplines and levels of study in higher education.
