Objective To explore the application and effectiveness of the apprenticeship education model in Chinese herbal medicine teaching at Western medical college.Methods By comparing classic lecture-based teaching with a combined approach integrating apprenticeship education,the study assesses the impact on student learning outcomes.Participants included students from the 2018 cohort of the eight-year clinical medicine program and the 2022 cohort of the"4+4"pilot program at Peking Union Medical College,who received classic teaching methods and apprenticeship case-based teaching methods,respectively.Upon course completion,students completed a 14-item multiple-choice questionnaire covering essential theory of Chinese medicine,as well as specific categories such as qi-regulating,blood-activating herbs,among others.Results The overall accuracy rate in the apprenticeship case-based teaching group was significantly higher than that in the classic teaching group(P<0.01).Conclusions The apprenticeship education model of Traditional Chinese Medicine has a positive effect on teaching of Chinese herbal medicine at West-ern medical college and warrants further promotion and application.
