Teaching medical biochemistry is a challenging task. The amount of information is huge and students have to learn a lot of details of molecular structure, metabolic pathways, regulation of metabolism and modern achievements of molecular medicine. Don’t forget the laboratory work, seminars and presentation …. and exams. What are the benefits of all this hard work?
As a teacher I have learned that the student has to actively organise his thinking. Lecture introduces new things and theories; reading notes, presentations and books combined with good learning methods organises thinking and the student starts to understand and they construct theory, connect things to new things. And hopefully they start to get their own ideas and form questions.
