ABSTRACT
Histology teaching requires a combination of theory and experiment for a better understanding of microstructure and related functions of body.On the basis of the comparison and summary of the advantages and limitations of traditional light microscopy tissue slices and the emerging digital slicing,we combined them in the teaching of micromorphology experiments to achieve a better teaching results.Each experimental course (about 3 to 4 hours) was divided into four parts:teaching videos,observation of light microscopy tissue slices and digital slicing,discussion on course content and random quizzes.This teaching method contributed to the improvement of the students' interest and motivation in learning,the teachers' teaching efficiency and the overall teaching quality.
ABSTRACT
Discussion teaching mode was carried out in the teaching of histology and embryol-ogy for clinical medical undergraduates in Chongqing Medical University from aspects of proposing questions, group learning, class discussing and summarizing. Classroom tests were accompanied to evaluate the teaching effect. It showed the discussion teaching achieved satisfactory effects. The correct answer rate of 92.36%students was≥60%. Students not only acquired knowledge but also increased their comprehensive abilities. The well-supervised topics, active participation of students and timely summary of teachers at the end of the class were the key factors in the practice of the discussion teaching mode.
