Practice and thinking of the X-BL mixed teaching mode of Pharmacology / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the effect of the X-BL mixed teaching mode on Pharmacology course. Methods:In Pharmacology course of the 2017 pharmacy major of our university, 3 teaching units were randomly selected as the control group while the rest 3 teaching units were selected as the experimental group. Traditional teaching mode was carried out in control group. In the experimental group, we designed a X-BL mixed teaching mode composed of web-based learning (WBL), case-based learning (CBL), and team-based learning (TBL). Teaching effects of the two groups were compared using online unit tests and questionnaires. Test scores were analyzed by SPSS 20.0, and differences between groups were analyzed by t test. Results:The test scores of each unit of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group ( P<0.01), and the low scores were all zeroed. The questionnaires showed that the two groups showed similar learning willingness, but the experimental group students were more satisfied with teaching method, teaching quality, classroom atmosphere, teacher guidance and learning effect than the control group. Conclusion:The X-BL mixed teaching mode, which focused on case teaching and group learning, integrated online and offline teaching, and information teaching, has showed a better teaching effect than traditional teaching in the Pharmacology courses. This teaching mode may have certain promotion value in the future teaching applications.
