Principles and steps for integrating bioinformatics

Biological data is increasing at a high speed, creating a vast amount of knowledge, while updating knowledge in teaching is limited, along with the unchanged time in the classroom. Therefore, integrating bioinformatics into teaching will be effective in teaching biology today. However, the big challenge is that pedagogical university students have yet to learn the basic knowledge and skills of bioinformatics, so they have difficulty and confusion when using it.

This dataset includes survey results on high school teachers, teacher training curriculums and pedagogical students in Vietnam. The highlights of this dataset are six basic principles and four steps of bioinformatics integration in teaching biology at high schools, with illustrative examples. The principles and approaches of integrating Bioinformatics into biology teaching improve the quality of biology teaching and promote STEM education in Vietnam and developing countries.
