药用植物学野外实习创新模式初探

Abstract

禀承“继承与创新并重，开卷与实践同行”的教育理念，课程组提出并探索了“形、色、气、味识草药”的药用植物野外实习改革模式。结果表明：该模式使学生在熟练掌握植物分类学的基本原理和知识的基础上对药用植物从形、色、气、味等方面进行了全新的认识，深刻理解了药用植物和植物的差异，充分提高了学生的综合分析问题能力和实践能力，也为后续的中药鉴定学、临床中药学等相关课程的学习打下良好的基础。 Based on the educational idea of “Value inheritance as much as innovation, and cherish theory as well as practice”, we established a new teaching pattern of identifying herbs by its shape, color, smell and taste, and applied it to field study of pharmaceutical botany. Result shows that this ap-proach allows students to master the basic principles and knowledge of plant taxonomy by cha-racterising the plant’s appearance and fragrance. It gives students a brand-new understanding of differences between species, greatly improves their ability of practice as well as comprehensive analysis, and lays a solid foundation for their further study on identification and clinical pharmacy of Chinese medicine.
