Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of interactive case teaching(ICT) method in teaching hematology.Methods Sixty students were randomly selected from 2009 grade clinical medicine majors in the Third Military Medical University and were divided into experimental group and control group,each group with 30 students.Students in experimental group used ICT; while those in control group used traditional teaching method.Closed book exam was conducted for students in experimental group and control group at the end of the semester; question types of the exam included concept questions (nouns explain,choice,short answer questions) for 70 points,cases analysis question for 30 points,a total of 100 points.Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ((x) ±s) and analyzed with SPSS 20.0 independent sample t test.Questionnaire was designed and feedback from students was statistically analyzed.Results There was no statistical differences between experimental group and control group in concept questions (P =0.580),however,in terms of cases analysis question,scores in experimental group were significantly higher than those in control group (P =0.000) ; total scores of experimental group were also significantly higher than those in control group (P =0.016).Feedback showed that the students highly valued the form and effect of ICT.Conclusions Using ICT in teaching hematology can arouse students' enthusiasm for study,cultivate their independent thinking and ability of problem-solving.Meanwhile,ICT can combined theoretical teaching with clinical practice well and improve the quality of teaching.
