Application of scene type trace method in physiology teaching

Abstract

Objective To explore the application of scene type trace method in physiology teach- ing reform. Methods 2009 grade clinical medicine students in Zunyi Medical College were randomly di- vided into two groups： control group （n=11l） and experiment group （n=108）. Students in control group were taught by traditional teaching method while those in experimented group by scene type trace method. According to the questionnaire survey and the final exam statistical analysis, the effects of teach- ing were evaluated. SPSS 15.0 software was used to do statistical analysis. Qualitative data were analyzed by chi-square test of completely randomized design and two sets of frequency distribution while quantita- tive data by independent samples t test. P 〈 0.05 means that difference is statistically significant. Results There were statistically differences in satisfaction degree of two teaching methods. More students were sat- isfied with scene type trace method than traditional teaching method. Final exam achievement in scene type trace method group （ 79.90 ± 14.25, 90.74% ） were higher t!mn that in the traditional teaching method group （ 72.35 ± 17.09, 83.78% ）. Conclusions Physiology teaching scene type trace method is helpful to improve the students＇ learning initiative and significantly improve students＇ learning achieve-ment.
