Investigation of the new ultrasonographic teaching pattern conducted in 4+4 medical educational pilot class at Peking Union Medical College
Abstract
Objective To investigate the value of new ultrasonographic teaching pattern in the urological integrated teaching course for 4+4 medical education pilot class of Peking Union Medical College (PUMC), and optimize future improvements based on teaching feedbacks. Methods Four themes were set up in the new ultrasonographic teaching pattern, including theory combined with ultrasonographic images and videos teaching, human ultrasonographic practice teaching, ultrasonographic simulation teaching and ultrasonographic case discussion. After the class, feedbacks from students were collected through questionnaire survey and the data was analyzed. Results The survey results showed that the multiple-model methods were well accepted by students. However, current teaching content and class hours were not enough to meet students' needs. Conclusions Increasing the input of ultrasonographic education is suggested for future improvement of imaging teaching at PUMC. Furthermore, establishing a more reasonable and hierarchical ultrasonographic teaching schedule based on the clinical teaching needs and students' learning capacity improve the learning outcomes of an integrated teaching.
