Application of teaching with multi-modality visualization in the training of neurosurgical residents / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To teach neurosurgical residents of standardized training by using teaching method with multi-modality visualization and to explore its application effects.Methods Total 122 students were randomly divided into two groupsmulti-modality visualization teaching group (n=61) and traditional teaching group (n=61).The evaluation of teaching effect was conducted by questionnaire of students and the analysis of test scores after the course.Comparison between the two groups was made by using independent sample t test.Results Questionnaire showed that the satisfaction of teaching mode (88.5％),learning efficiency (93.4％),and training results (90.1％) with multi-modality visualization teaching group were statistically higher than traditional group (P＜0.05).Test score showed that results of theory test (88.5 ± 5.1),on-spot examination (91.6 ± 5.5),and overall score (89.3 ± 5.2) were also statistically higher in multi-modality visualization teaching group than that of control group (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in clinical skills assessment between two groups.Conclusions Teaching with multi-modality visualization can significantly improve the efficiency of neurosurgical clinical teaching and promote the training effect of students,which provides a new strategy of neurosurgical clinical teaching.
