Strategies for Cultivating the Practical Skills of High School and Vocational Pre-service Teachers Based on Integrated Chemical and Biological Teaching Methods

Abstract

Against the backdrop of educational reform, cultivating high school teachers with interdisciplinary teaching capabilities has become a crucial task in education. This paper, based on the “Chemistry + Biological Sciences Undergraduate-Master’s Integrated Program” at a teacher-training university, explores strategies for developing the practical competencies of high school teachers through integrated chemistry-biology instruction. Considering both the professional training curriculum and institutional resources, specific teaching strategies are proposed: curriculum integration, establishment of practical training bases, enhancement of educational research capabilities, innovation in teaching methods, interdisciplinary teamwork, and continuous professional development. These strategies aim to provide references for cultivating the practical skills of interdisciplinary high school teachers and promote the synergistic development of chemistry and biological sciences education in high schools.
