The knowledge absence of neurosurgical regional anatomy is the major shortcoming which makes seven-year program medical students feel difficult in studying neurosurgical special course.The reasons for this phenomenon include the limited teaching time for basic medical course and the continuous progress in the field of neurological anatomy.The teacher should make good use of clinical resources to carry on the additional teaching of neurosurgical regional anatony.The detailed plans include small-class teaching and individual case analysis using the data of neuroimaging and angiography of the brain and spinal cord.All these measures are intend to let the students grasp of the basic knowledge clinical neurosurgery during the internship and make the smooth transition from interns to doctors,providing references for other department.

Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2014;13(4):366-369
Objective To explore the unified assessment methods based on present situation of after-department examination during the internship in the department of obstetrics and gynecology.Methods The present situation of after-department examination in the department of obstetrics and gynecology in 36 comprehensive hospitals of Chongqing Three Gorges Medical College were investigated through interviews and research papers including 12 grade A hospital of the first class hospital (33.33%),19 grade A hospital of the second class(52.78%) and 5 grade B hospital of the second class(13.89%).Totally 137 students of clinical major in 4 grade A hospital of the second class were enrolled and were divided into study group(n=72) and control group(n=65).hems of theoretical examination and skill examination as well as the evaluation standard were established combining with the syllabus of the licensed assistant doctors and the talent training scheme requirements.Students in study group were trained according to the practice syllabus,skill examination requirement and evaluation require-ment while those in control group had no cmresponding requirement.After-department examination was organized by school at the end of internship.The full score of theoretical examination and skill examination score was 50 respectively.Smvey results of after-depamnent examination were analyzed by Fisher's Exact Test and the results of after-depamnent examination were analyzed by t test.Results The hospitals having the after-department examination accounted for 80.56%(29/36).The hospitals having the after-depamnent examination according to the practice syllabus requirements accounted for only 20.69%(6/29).After the intervention,theoretical examination scores of study group and control group were 40.31 ± 3.47 and 35.78 ± 4.92,respectively,with statistically significant differences(t=6.26,P=0.000).The skills assessment scores of study group and control group were 40.42 ± 3.02 and 34.05 ± 5.18,respectively,with statistically significant differences(t=8.90,P=0.000).Conclusions The after-department examination in hospital is in a state of randomness,so unified assessment methods are necessary.

The computerized imitating system constructed by the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University contains four blocks:administration of student infomation,administration of question bank,on-line tests and administration of score inquiry.It's designed to imitate typical pediatric cases,so that the medical students may put themselves into the practical clinical scenario and solve the challenges step by step in one-direction procedure.Teaching with computerized clinical scenario imitating patients can improve students' test resuhs and activate students' learning enthusiasm significantly.It not only helps to solve the contradiction between increasing number of medical students and clinical typical teaching case shortage but also improves the clinical thinking ability of the medical students.This system can also be used as a test bank for pediatric technical skills examination.
4.Training of cardiopulmonary resuscitation skill should be implemented from primary and middle school
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2013;(3):322-324
In view of the increased incidences of cardiac arrest outside hospital year by year and younger tendency of the patients,foreign medical education practice showed that school-age children accepting cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skill training will benefit most from this survival skill in the future.This article elaborated on the meaning and methods of promoting CPR training in primary and middle school based on the present situation of CPR in order to promote its further development.

The integrated course centered on organ system has been implemented for several years in Huazhong university of science and technology.Basic medicine courses were divided into three modules.Medical introduction Ⅰ was the first one which integrated nine basic medicine courses.Reform on teaching methods,teaching content,teacher training and experiment teaching were conducted and initial results were achieved.
7.Specificity of case teaching in ideological and political theory course in medical colleges
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2013;(1):33-35
Case teaching in medical colleges is not only the need of ideological and political theory course teaching reform,but also the need of training of high qualified medical talents.Specificity of case teaching in ideological and political theory course in medical colleges was discussed from choosing and implementing of cases based on the analysis of ideological and political theory course's characters.Highlighting medical specificity was presented as the key of case teaching in ideological and political theory course in medical colleges.

Education reform and innovative education are the strong requirements of the times and social development.We developed immunological paper free examination system based on the optimized question bank,characteristics of immunological examination and information technology.This system can randomly develop electronic examination paper and can integrate the processes of exam registration,examination paper development,online examination,paper inspection,scores generation and printing into one system,which can save human resources,enhance the accuracy and fairness of the examination,making it conform to international standards.
10.Reflection on practice of progressive assessment on comprehensive quality of undergraduates
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2013;(1):60-62
Progressive assessment is one of the methods adopted by colleges and universities to evaluate the comprehensive quality of undergraduates.It can provide objective references for various awards and selections.Most colleges used static and transverse methods; based on these methods,advantages and disadvantages of individual undergraduates were compared with general groups,but feedback and forecast functions of assessment can not be realized.Therefore it is necessary to transform our conceptions and practice progressive assessment on comprehensive quality of undergraduates.We can learn from the relevant conceptions and methods in enterprise management and use data envelopment analysis to exclude the influence of different basic conditions of undergraduates.These undertakings are of great importance to truly reflect undergraduates' effective progress degree,guide them to test and evaluate themselves correctly and to advance comprehensive quality continuously.
