摘 要：在创新和创业在中国政府的大规模倡导，以满足知识分子创新性、生产性和创造性（IPC）的能力要求。变革终身学习转变在教育上非常重要。本文调查了五名被采访者，发现在大学教育中的教学是很难触及学生的心，然后改变他们原有的框架的知识和假设，并来自于时间和空间的密集指令强度的变革性学习。由于生物学与世界自然密切相关，与日常生活密切相关，中学的生物学教学应超越课本和测试，并与学生的日常生活进行互动，转变学习开始的知识框架，学习将发展壮大，就像一颗种子萌发、发芽、生长和繁殖。

Abstract：With the government advocate in innovation and large-scale entrepreneurship in China, the intellectuals with innovative, productive and creative (IPC) competence are called on. The transformative lifelong learning turns out to be necessary in education. The paper investigated five interviewees and discovered that the teaching in pre-college education is difficult to touch the students’ heart and then transform their original frame of reference in knowledge and assumption, and that transformative learning was derived from dense instruction in time and space and its intensity. Because biology is close to the world nature and closely related to everyday life, the biology instruction in pre-college schools should go beyond the textbook and tests and should be interacted with students’ everyday life to transform their beginning frame of knowledge reference, by which learning will develop and grow just like a seed to germinate, sprout, grow and reproduce.

Key words: transformative learning; biology; pre-college education; intrinsic motivation

I. Introduction

1.1 Current Demands and Promotion on Popular Entrepreneur and Innovation

Facing the challenge of economy lowering down, which was caused or brought on by the volatile economic situation in the world dated back to the international financial crisis happening in 2008, the traditional strategy to develop economy with a high speed is doubted, and the identified crux is, in industrial production, lack of creation and innovation to meet the ever-changing needs in the world. After the 10-year Cultural Revolution, the Reform and Opening-up starting in 1978, in fact, is the first massive innovation and entrepreneur. In the current serious economy challenge, the governments in China have encouraged and propelled the innovation and the massive entrepreneurship – a small-scale kind of reform.

In the 3rd Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), innovation in theory and practice was deployed to promote. Xi said, “We should emancipate the mind, …  boldly promote innovation both in theory and practice,… give full rein to their creativity, promote reform with the close support of the people, and promote well-rounded development of the person.” (Xi emphasized that) it is necessary to encourage innovation in the cultural sector[1].
