On the application of WeChat public platform in the teaching of battlefield first aid in a Military Medical University / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

According to the three steps of teaching design, teaching practice and teaching reflection, the research group organized and implemented WeChat public platform to assist the teaching of the battlefield first aid course. Teaching design focused on three aspects: teaching content setting, learning process development and learning effect evaluation. Content setting highlighted the relevance of key content and knowledge points. The learning process emphasized two steps:teaching before class and internalizing in class . A variety of evaluation methods were used in teaching effect evaluation . Through investigation , interview and analysis of test results, it was shown that this new teaching method was generally accepted by experimental class students. Students in this class have generally improved their three core abilities and their test scores were also higher than those of the control class. This research provides fresh ideas and a useful example for the implementing WeChat public platform as an assist in the teaching of other courses in the military medical university. In addition, the research group believe that in-depth research and discussions are still needed on how to effectively deal with such problems as the lack of diversification of contents in WeChat public platform.
