ABSTRACT
Based on the combination of formative evaluation and summative evaluation, the newly-built virtual experimental platform was applied to the functional experimental assessment of clinical students. Its effects were observed by the process evaluation of "daily performance-virtual and real operation + written exam" and feedback from teachers and students. The results showed that daily performance, experimental operation, experimental report and final score of students in the experimental group who received the teaching by virtual experimental platform were significantly better than those in the control group; the students' interests in learning and self-learning ability in the experimental group were also significantly improved. This research showed that the introduction of virtual experimental platform into the teaching evaluation of diversified functional experiment enriches the contents and ways of formative evaluation, so as to improves students' experimental skills, and further enhance the effects of experimental teaching.
