Many laboratory courses consist of short and seemingly unconnected individual laboratory exercises. To increase the course consistency, relevance, and student engagement, we have developed a research-inspired and project-based module, "From Gene to Structure and Function". This 2.5-week full-day biochemistry and structural biology module…

Introduction: A key aspect of teaching is analyzed in the framework of Higher Education that is student satisfaction with the completion of Final-Year Degree Projects (FYDP). Method: A longitudinal study is conducted over three academic years on student satisfaction with FYDPs. The study involves a sample of 1331 students, 1014 undergraduate…

Education 4.0 is a new educational paradigm that intends to address the needs and potentialities of the fourth industrial revolution.
