Bio Chemistry is one of my top subjects! Both undergrad and medical level of education related to bio chem. One of my favorite subjects. Bio chem is an interesting field of study because it intergrates many disciplines of science to explain how and why things occur in the human body. It is fundemental to gaining a higher understanding of how the chemicals we produce and intake ultimately create the cellular activity that keeps the human machine functioning.
Having fun is a requirement. Learning in an environment where stress is taken out of the equation is paramount to retention of knowledge and key to success. I utilize anecdotal methods to convey concepts so that a student can relate the knowledge to how it fits into their own life or past experience.I try to get around rote learning when possible. However, when pure memorization is unavoidable, I have methods to incorporate that are tried and true and still hinge on the foundation of using anecdot. See one, do one, teach one is also another way I like to use. The student sees/learns, then does/uses what they've learned, and finally teaches the information back to me and/or someone else. This method allows a students to become an expert at what they are learning.
