Abstract:
Objective:Based on the concept of outcomes-based education (OBE), aiming to improve students' medical mathematical modeling ability, the teaching design and practice of mathematical modeling module for the course Medical Advanced Mathematics are carried out and the direction of improvement is defined. Methods:Taking infectious disease model as an example, teaching practice was carried out, and then questionnaires from 44 students were collected for feedback opinions. Statistical description, Mann-Whitney U test, one-way ANOVA and Scheffe method, as well as chi-square test and z-test were used to analyze data. Results:The results showed that 90.91% of the students were interested in the subject of the course, and 65.91% of the students thought that this mode significantly improved the learning effect. In this course, there was no significant difference in the learning initiative of students on the two levels of being or not being interested in the course topic, but it had a significant impact on their mastery of knowledge points and their willingness to continue to carry out flipped classroom.Conclusion:The teaching mode is generally effective, but it needs to be further improved in three aspects: emphasizing modeling and downplaying computation, enhancing students' participation and strengthening the classroom learning effect.
