Abstract: With the rapid progress of cell biology, the traditional teaching approach of cell biology course no longer meets the requirements. There is an urgent need for teaching reform to adapt the current education development. Flipped classroom is a new type of teaching mode and advocates the modern teaching idea that students are the main body. We consider the characteristics of cell biology curriculum and introduce the flipped classroom into teaching practice. Students are encouraged to read some references about the corresponding content and thought primarily before the class, then guided by teacher to discuss and find the answers to the questions in the class. From our analyses of teaching practice, we obtain primary experience and suggestions to promote the development of the flipped classroom in teaching cell biology course.
