Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of ‘ group-head responsibility teaching method' in the physiology experiment teaching.Methods Totally 422 students of clinical medicine major in 2010 grade were randomly divided into two groups:212 students in control and 210 in study group.For students in control group,principles,procedures,items of experiment and computer operation were first taught,then experiment was performed while for those in study group,initial procedures were firstly explained,then the group heads were called together to observe the experiment preformed by teacher,after that the group heads returned to assist other students performing the experiment.Finally,experiment success rates,scores of final-term experiment operation,theoretical exam and report of two groups were compared and analyzed.Meanwhile,questionnaire survey was conducted.Results Success rates were improved significantly in study group than in control group (x2 =37.42,P =0.0000).There were significant differences in operation scores (t =4.3213,P =0.0000),theoretical exam scores (t =6.8744,P =0.0000) and report scores (t =15.298,P =0.0000) between the two groups.Conclusions ‘ Group-head responsibility teaching method' is better than traditional lecture-style teaching method and it can promote comprehensive capabilities of students.
