A comparative study of conventional teaching program and logical thinking ability training program for ultrasonic medical students

Abstract

Objective To compare the effect of the conventional teaching programs and logical thinking ability training program of ultrasound medical profession. Methods 85 ultrasound medical junior students were randomly divided into control group(n=40) and experimental group(n=45) respectively. Experimental group was provided with logical thinking ability cultivation to develop logical thinking of students, and the key was to enable students to find the key problems of ultrasound in the diagnosis of the disease and put forward measures to solve them and control group carried on the con-ventional teaching. Teaching effect, the medical record analysis test scores, clinical skills examination and questionnaire score were compared between the two groups, using SPSS 18.0 software for statistical analysis of the data. Results (1)Students in the experimental group thought that compared with the control group, their interest in learning improved, the ability of clinical analysis enhanced, inter-action between teachers and students and learning efficiency and self-study ability increased and the difference has statistical significance. (2)The experimental group's scores of medical records analysis, the assessment scores of clinical skills and the student questionnaire score were higher than those of the control group and the two groups' score difference was statistically significant. Conclusion To strengthen the training of medical ultrasound medical imaging direction students' logical thinking ability can significantly improve the quality of teaching, and it is worthy to be promoted and applied.
