Application of microteaching in experimental teaching of pathophysiology / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the application of microteaching in experimental teaching of pathophysiology. Methods A total of 120 integrated Western and Chinese medicine major students were randomly divided into experimental group (n=60) and control group (n=60). The experimental group accepted microteaching method. First, students were divided into several groups, teacher gave every group 10~15 minutes microteaching and shot the video of training process; second, students watched the video to find their deficiency with the help of teacher; and then students overcame the deficiency by repeated practice;last, the teacher gave evaluation. The control group adopted traditional method. Results The average test results of experimental group were (83.7±6.8), while the average test results of control group were ( 76 . 1 ± 7 . 2 ) , so the average test results of experimental group were higher than that of control group (P=0.000). In teaching satisfaction survey, 91.7%students were satisfied with the microteaching mode, and the satisfaction of experimental group were higher than that of control group (P=0.03). Conclusion The application of microteaching in experimental teaching of pathophysiology can improve students' experimental skills, increase students' interest in learning and improve the quality of pathophysiology teaching.
