ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the effectiveness of implementation of multi-teaching model ( MT) and case based teaching ( CBT) in pediatric teaching among undergraduate medical students. Methods Eighty one trainee students were divided into CBT and MT groups. Scenario based teaching ( SBT) , sandwich teaching ( ST) and CBT were given to students of MT group. Results The self evaluation scores of " how much have you grasp before the class"by students after class in MT group were higher than those of CBT group[5.0(2.5,7,5) vs 4.0(3.0,5.0), Z=2.011,P＜0.05]. The scores of obstructive structured clinical examination after training of MT group were higher than those of CBT group[ 93.0(90.3,97.0) vs 83.25(78.3,86.4),Z=7.752,P＜0.001]. Conclusions MT is better than CBT in pediatric training among undergraduate medical students.
