The control group received traditional teaching, and the research group adopted micro-course guided by mind mapping to carry out teaching activities. SPSS 21.0 was used to conduct t test and chi-square test to compare the evaluation results of assessment, critical thinking ability, learning efficiency and comprehensive ability. Results:The scores of theory and skill practice in the research group were higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). After intervention, the evaluation results of critical thinking ability in the two groups were better than before intervention ( P<0.05), and the evaluation results of critical thinking ability in the research group were better than those in the control group ( P<0.05). The total effective rate of the research group was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P<0.05). The evaluation results of comprehensive ability in the research group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The application of micro-course guided by mind mapping in practice teaching of internal medicine department of traditional Chinese medicine has a positive impact on the cultivation of interns' critical thinking ability and comprehensive ability, with excellent examination results and high learning efficiency.
