At the end of the semester, surveys were conducted and the results of students′operative skill were analyzed. Results The result of operative skills evaluation in the experiment group was 88.0 ± 6.9while that in the control group was 79.0 ± 9.2. The comparative difference between the two groups had statistical significance(t = 4.392,P<0.01). The qualified rate in the experiment group was 95.23%(40/42)while that in the control group was 70.00%(28/40).The comparative difference between the two groups had statistical significance(χ2=9.118,P<0.01).
