Application of case-based multidisciplinary team teaching mode in clinical practice teaching of gynecology

Abstract

Objective To explore the feasibility and evaluate the teaching effect of case-based multidisciplinary team teaching mode in clinical practice teaching of gynecology. Method According to different grade, 120 students were divided into experimental group and control group (60 students per group). The teaching content contained three malignant tumor cases, which were cervical cancer, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer. The course needed 12 periods totally. The experimental group received multidisci-plinary team (MDT) teaching mode, and the control group received traditional lecture-based learning teaching mode (LBL). Teaching effect evaluation and test scores would be analyzed at the end of teaching. SPSS19.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results Our results showed that the theory test scores, practical skills test scores, the paperwork scores and the total scores of the students in MDT group were significantly higher than those in the traditional group (P<0.05). At the same time, the students' self-evaluation scores in the ability of information retrieval, acquisition, understanding, comprehensive and the ability of self-learning, learning interest, enthusiasm and teamwork were significantly higher than the traditional group (P<0.05). Conclusion MDT teaching mode is feasible, which can improve teaching effect and students' quality, and is worthy of advocating and popularization.
