Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic is a case that can be used as a biochemistry learning resource in relation to the topic of viruses. Learning to use cases will be effective if students are assigned to produce reports, articles, or other scientific papers. Self‐assessment can be used to assess the competencies that have been learnt in the writing process. This study aims to analyze the scientific papers and self‐assessment of students using the COVID‐19 pandemic case. It includes qualitative research with scientific paper and self‐assessment questionnaire analyses. The research sample was chemistry education study program students (N = 57) following biochemistry course, out of a population of 87 students. The results show that the students have a good understanding of explaining COVID‐19. Self‐assessment analysis shows that 80% of the students responded positively to eight statements; those who gave positive responses to each questionnaire statement were able to produce scientific papers. Good self‐assessment is in line with the ability of students to compile good scientific papers.

使用生物化学课程 COVID-19 案例探索学生的科学论文和自我评估

摘要 2019 年冠状病毒病 (COVID‐19) 大流行是一个可以用作与病毒主题相关的生物化学学习资源的案例。如果学生被分配撰写报告、文章或其他科学论文，学习用例将是有效的。自我评估可用于评估在写作过程中学到的能力。本研究旨在使用 COVID-19 大流行案例分析学生的科学论文和自我评估。它包括带有科学论文的定性研究和自我评估问卷分析。研究样本是在 87 名学生中学习生物化学课程的化学教育学习项目学生（N = 57）。结果表明，学生对解释 COVID-19 有很好的理解。自我评估分析表明，80% 的学生对 8 项陈述做出了积极回应；那些对每个问卷陈述做出积极回应的人能够发表科学论文。良好的自我评估符合学生编写优秀科学论文的能力。
