Abstract—Life Science is a science to understand the phenomena of life and reveal the essence of life, which contains abundant philosophical elements, especially the elements of dialectical materialism thinking. Putting dialectical thinking into teaching can help to improve students' ability to analyze and solve problems, and develop students' innovative thinking. However, how to innovate teaching methods and improve the dialectical thinking ability of college students is an important issue that college teachers urgently need to solve. Taking the course of molecular biology as an example, this paper analyzed in detail the materialist dialectic elements contained in the course, explored the teaching mode of integrating dialectical thinking into professional courses, constructed the “1 + 3” innovative teaching method, and elaborated the specific teaching path. The aim was to guide and train students to interpret the laws of life phenomena using dialectical thinking, explore students' potential for philosophical speculation, and achieve students' all-round development.
