Research on PBL teaching embedded in traditional Chinese medicine English intercultural communication education / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Problem-based Learning (PBL) teaching aims to develop students' ability to ask questions, analyze and solve problems so as to improve their autonomous learning and life-long learning ability. This study attempts to embed PBL teaching into the intercultural communication course of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) English. Feedbacks from students through assessment questionnaires and interviews, as well as the author's reflections based on the teaching are included in this paper. Suggestions on the practical application of PBL teaching in the course are also given in the end.
