An online course on applied biochemistry and molecular biology through case‐based learning

An undergraduate online course on Applied Biochemistry and Molecular Biology was developed through different formats of case study that included lecture, class discussion, small‐groups discussion, and individual work. Cases covering health, biotechnology, agriculture, and other issues were developed or adapted from the literature to reach the desired learning goals. Multiple web resources were employed for information integration that were presented and discussed in the synchronous sessions and assignments. Formative and summative assessment was achieved through multiple‐choice questionnaires, exams, and homework assignments.
