Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the appropriate teaching methods for medical international students.MethodsTotally 84 students in grade 2005 and 63 students in grade 2006 took part in clinical skills training in 2010 and 2011.The traditional method was employed in grade 2005 and interactive teaching and imagery training was applied in grade 2006 combined with the traditional methods.ResultsThe scores of clinical skill tests ( posterior thorax puncture test,abdomen puncture test,bone puncture,catheterization test) were significantly higher in grade 2006 than in grade 2005 with statistical differences,P < 0.01.The clinical skill test scores were not statistically different between grade 2005 and 2006 before training,P > 0.05,but the scores were statistically different between grade 2005and 2006 after training,P < 0.05.Conclusion Using polynary teaching methods synthetically is helpful to improve the clinical skill training effect for medical international students.
