How can we effectively utilize multifunctional experimental instruments in teaching?

1. Clarify experimental objectives and match instrument functions

Set clear teaching objectives before class and select multifunctional instruments with corresponding functions based on experimental needs. By matching the instrument's modular functions (such as microscopic observation, data acquisition, and temperature control), you can avoid wasted resources and improve the relevance of experiments.

2. Integrate digital platforms for real-time data acquisition and analysis

Use the instrument's built-in digital interface or accompanying software to transmit experimental data to the teaching platform in real time. Students can simultaneously observe curve changes, magnify images, and other information in class, while teachers provide real-time guidance and comments, enhancing interactivity and the visualization of experiments.

3. Adopt a tiered teaching model to enhance student engagement

Experimental content is divided into three levels: basic operation, advanced exploration, and innovative design. The basic level familiarizes all students with the basic operation of the instrument; the advanced level guides students to conduct more complex experiments using the instrument's advanced functions; and the innovative level encourages students to design their own experimental plans, fully utilizing the flexibility of the multifunctional instrument.

4. Ensure instrument maintenance and safety management.
Establish a system for instrument usage registration, regular calibration, and fault reporting to ensure optimal instrument performance. Incorporating safety features (such as protective covers and emergency stop buttons) and conducting safety training before experiments can effectively reduce accident risks and ensure the continuity of teaching activities.
