ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the effects of "Rain Classroom" teaching model and traditional teaching model in the Pharmacology teaching for MBBS international students.Methods:A total of 55 MBBS international students of the Batch 2016 were selected, and randomly divided into the "Rain Classroom" teaching group ( n = 27, experimental group) and the traditional teaching group ( n = 28, control group) according to their academic performance, age, gender, learning attitude, learning ability, and their original country. The experimental group took "Rain Classroom" assisted teaching, and control group took traditional teaching.The teachers for two groups were the same. They have been engaged in the "Pharmacology" course for international students for many years. The chapter "Antihypertensives" in textbook " Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews, Pharmacology (edited by Karen Whalen)" was selected as teaching content. The teaching effects were evaluated by the knowledge assessment (70 points) and process evaluation (30 points). A questionnaire survey was conducted at the end of the course. The results were statistically analyzed by t-test and Chi-square test using SPSS 11.5 software. Results:Compared with the traditional teaching group, the students of "Rain Classroom" group obtained a significantly higher score in exam. The average exam score of the "Rain Classroom" group was (58.6±6.8) points, while the average exam score of the traditional teaching group was (52.3±9.4) points, indicating a better mastery of knowledge for "Rain Classroom" group ( P < 0.05). The process evaluation showed that the students in the "Rain Classroom" group were more active in participation and the interaction, which was significantly higher than that in the traditional teaching group (7.4 vs. 2.8 times per students). No obvious difference was observed in students' attendance and homework scores for these two groups. According to the questionnaire survey, the "Rain Classroom" group enhanced students' interest in learning, improved the concentration in classes, and thus promoted the mastery of knowledge. Conclusion:The present study has confirmed the "Rain Classroom" teaching method is conducive to mobilizing students' enthusiasm for learning and improving teaching effect.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the application of new teaching techniques and establish a new model for experimental teaching of Medical Statistics for undergraduate students of clinical medicine. Methods:We enrolled 2 classes of students from Xi'an Medical University as research objects, and they were randomized into study group ( n=62) and control group ( n=54). The study group received "traditional demonstration+ blended" learning, while the control group only received traditional teaching. On the premise of balanced comparability, the effects of the two teaching patterns were evaluated from such three aspects as satisfaction questionnaire, teacher's self-evaluation and achievement. SPSS 22.0 was performed for chi-square test, t test and rank sum test. Results:At the end of the semester, the value cognition of statistics in both groups was higher than before class, and the study group [93.5% (58/62)] was higher than that in the control group [68.5% (37/54)] ( χ2=12.20, P<0.001). The overall satisfaction ( Z=-7.05, P<0.001) and the satisfaction with teaching methods ( Z=-3.95, P<0.001) of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group, with no statistical difference in satisfaction with teaching contents between the two groups ( Z=-0.27, P=0.784). More students in the study group thought that the experimental class deepened their understanding of statistical theory ( χ2=26.87, P<0.001). In the last four experimental classes, the post-test scores of both groups were higher than those of the pre-test, but the pre-test scores and post-test scores of the study group were higher than those of the control group. The performance of software operation in study group was higher than that in control group ( t=8.27 P<0.001). There was no statistical difference in the final test scores between the two groups ( t=0.29, P=0.773). Conclusion:The "traditional demonstration+ blended" learning is more in line with the students' learning pattern, and can better improve students' cognition and satisfaction of the statistics, especially can better cultivate students' team cooperation, expression and the SPSS analysis ability.

ABSTRACT
"Rain classroom + " is an online and offline teaching mode developed under the background of "Internet + Education". However, there are still certain shortcomings in online teaching. Based on this situation, we explore the application of a new mixed teaching mode based on "Rain classroom + " in the teaching of Pathophysiology. Centered on three links of pre-class, in-class and post-class, the flipped classroom has been realized through teaching interaction by combining Tencent Meeting and integrating the problem-based learning with the case-based learning (PBL/CBL) in the teaching. "Rain classroom + " mixed teaching mode realizes the "student-centered" teaching concept by optimizing teaching resources, reorganizing teaching content and perfecting teaching design.
