摘要: 微生物学实验在生命科学及相关专业教学中至关重要,显微制片与染色观察更是其中难度较高、工作量较大的环节,涉及细菌、霉菌、放线菌、酵母菌等多种微生物。传统实验课堂常采用教师集中式评价模式,学生需要排队等待人工评阅和反馈,时间成本高、效率低,教师也在重复性工作中耗费大量精力。为解决这一瓶颈,研究基于生成式人工智能(generative AI)技术开发了“识菌”(Identify Microbe)模型,通过提示词策略和工作流逻辑进行定制训练,使模型能在数秒内对学生提交的显微图像进行快速识别与自动评分,并输出针对性的操作改进建议。引入AI模型后,实验课堂整体效率显著提升,学生能够进行多轮次涂片操作并深度思考染色原理,显微图片质量高分率明显增加,教师则腾出更多时间进行个别化辅导和课程拓展。“识菌”模型与微生物实验教学的融合不仅化解了显微操作批量评价的痛点,也为实验教育的数字化和智能化升级提供了切实可行的思路。

Abstract: Microbiological experiments are crucial in the teaching of life sciences and related majors, and microscopic sectioning and observation operations are particularly difficult and labor-intensive, involving various microorganisms such as bacteria, molds, actinomycetes, yeast, etc. Traditional experimental teaching often adopts a centralized teacher grading model, where students need to queue up and wait for manual review and feedback of microscopic images, resulting in high time costs and low efficiency. Teachers also spend a lot of energy on repetitive work. To address this bottleneck, this study developed the “Identify Microbe” model based on generative AI technology. Through customized training using prompt word strategies and workflow logic, the model can quickly recognize and automatically score microscopic images submitted by students within seconds, and output targeted operational improvement suggestions. After introducing AI models, the overall efficiency of the experimental classroom was significantly improved. Students could perform multiple rounds of smear operations and deeply contemplate the staining principle. The high score rate of microscopic image quality was significantly increased, and teachers were freed up more time for personalized tutoring and course expansion. The integration of the “Identify Microbe” model with microbiological experimental teaching not only resolved the pain points of batch evaluation of microscopic operations, but also provided practical and feasible ideas for the digital and intelligent upgrading of experimental education.
