Application of case-based teaching in clinical immunology / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

As an important course in medical laboratory science, clinical immunology is composed of advanced immunological knowledge and advanced testing technology, which are closely related to many disciplines, such as basic medicine, clinical medicine and so on. Medical educators introduced case-based teaching into clinical immunology, selected the typical, enlightening and interesting clinical cases, designed some reasonable questions for students majoring in medical laboratory science and improved students' participation via pre-class discussion and answering their questions during class, so as to help them study actively. Case-based teaching has been proved through practice as one of the important ways to improve the learning efficiency of medical students and promote their overall development, and it is a successful method for teaching reform.
