Sun Liangliang, a Class of 2025 master’s student in Chemistry Education at the Faculty of Education, Beijing Normal University, developed teaching resources based on the research achievement “Film-based Fluorescent Sensors” by Prof. Fang Yu’s group, and completed his master’s thesis titled “Action Research on Secondary Chemistry Instructional Design Based on Chemists’ Innovative Achievements: The Case of Film-based Fluorescent Sensors.”

During his studies, Sun Liangliang conducted in-depth research by reviewing relevant literature and interviewing Prof. Fang Yu, before exploring disciplinary content and developing teaching resources suitable for frontline instruction. These resources underwent multiple iterations and practical implementation at the International Division of Renmin University High School and Zhengzhou No. 11 High School. This process explored the feasibility of transforming teaching materials based on scientists’ innovation stories into project-based learning. It validated the effectiveness of these resources in developing students’ problem-solving abilities and innovative thinking, yielding positive outcomes. Under his advisor’s guidance, Sun developed a methodology for recognizing innovative achievements and developing teaching resources, and successfully completed his master’s thesis, which he defended in May this year, and received favorable reviews from the thesis defense committee.

Sun Liangliang studied under Prof. Wei Rui at the School of Chemistry, Beijing Normal University. Prof. Wei Rui currently serves as secretary-general of the Chemistry Education Committee of the Chinese Chemical Society and vice dean of the China Education Innovation Research Institute at Beijing Normal University, and is one of the founding editors of the journal Primary Science (Changchun Publishing House, 2009). His primary research focuses on chemistry education, science education, and the philosophy of chemistry, and he has also participated in the revision of the Ministry of Education’s high school chemistry curriculum standards.
