Hydrangea macrophylla is an important landscape plant, for its varieties and showy inflorescences. Interestingly, the sepal of hydrangea contains only one anthocyanin, delphinin-3-glucose, which produces a series of color-changing from red to blue. It’s found that the key role in the color-changing of hydrangea sepals is Al3+, while co-pigment contained in sepals also plays an important role. In order to clarify the mechanism of color-changing from red to blue, biochemists proposed a chemical model, and successfully measured the structure of metal-anthocyanin complex which caused the blue-color of sepals.

Show Abstract ( 18 )
According to the shortcomings of the “flipped classroom” teaching mode in teaching chemistry experiment, a new mode of student-centered chemistry experiment “triple three” flipped teaching is reconstructed relying on the “cloud class”. Experimental teaching is divided into three classes: self-study class, theoretical class and experimental class. The three links in the theoretical class are personal report, group activities and test review, respectively. After the three classes, the three evaluations of learning effect, which include self-study evaluation, participation evaluation and experimental operations’ evaluation, is formed. Under this new teaching mode, the synthesis of cyclohexene in organic chemistry is exemplified in this mode. The results show that the whole teaching process not only reflects the teaching concept of “learning-based teaching and student-centered”, but also takes advantage of the offline traditional classroom to achieve the purpose of lengthening the time of “knowledge internalization” and testing the students’ mastery of online self-study in the stage of “knowledge impartment”. There has more time and space to excavate and integrate the curriculum ideological and politicalelements in order to achieve the value guidance for students in knowledge dissemination.

ACE offers feedback that explains why a response is correct or incorrect, guiding students to the correct answer. ACE is the only program that allows students to drawcomplicatedmechanisms ormultistepsyntheses. There are multiple correct answers to a question such as this one, but ACE is intelligent enough to accept many different correct answers and still exclude the incorrect ones. Automatic grading of ACE relieves instructors of grading students’ homework themselves, but they can still use students’ grades on homework towards their class grades. In particular, the ACE forum allows students to ask questions that the instructor or other students can answer. The ACE has been applied to the organic chemistry course in College of Chemistry, Jilin University. It was proved that using of ACE increased students’ interests in organic chemistry and developed students’ strict scientific attitude.

Show Abstract ( 23 )
Rounding off for numerical values is an important content in the analytical chemistry teaching. The mainstream analytical chemistry textbooks adopt the rules of round half to even at present. The relationship between the mantissa and rounding condition has been analyzed in detail. The results show that not the “mantissa” but “the first digit of the mantissa” would conform to the rule. Comparative analysis shows that the rounding rules with numbers 4, 5, and 6 as comparison values are the same as the GBT8170—2008 national standard with 5. However the logic and presentation of the latter are better. Therefore, it is suggested that the rounding rules of the GBT8170—2008 national standard should be adopted in analytical chemistry textbooks.
