RESUMEN
The application of MOOCs (massive open online courses) in internal medicine education is feasible with the construction of MOOCs in internal medicine, internet and mobile terminal availability, and the improvement of college student quality. We reviewed the progress of MOOCs in the medical teach-ing. The chapter of coronary heart disease was exemplified to illustrate how to apply MOOCs in internal medicine teaching. The MOOCs was carried out with the following steps: the share of MOOCs courses, self-guided learning, online question and answer section, in-class teaching and exams post MOOCs, which achieved good teaching effect, enhanced students' subjectivity, and promoted the sharing of high-quality medi-cal teaching resources. At the same time, in view of the limited nature of MOOCs in internal medicine, we need to overcome it in the development of teaching practice.
