Abstract

Ackerman's pattern analysis is an epoch-making leap in the diagnosis of dermatopathology, which embodies a profound understanding of the whole dermatovenereology. To improve the teaching quality of Dermatovenereology for five year clinical medical students, pattern analysis is introduced into course educational practice, and the diseases that scattered throughout the whole textbook and listed in various chapters or sections are reclassified according to its pathological features. Thus the organic connection of related knowledge points and the lateral contrast network between different diseases is constructed by the central tache of dermatopathology, and therefore makes the course more logical and be more beneficial for the undergraduate students to learn and to remember. By the way, the thinking method of pattern analysis will also be an implicit teaching content and imperceptibly instilled to the undergraduate students, and inspired potential and motivation and aroused learning interest, expanded thought train ability to pursue advanced and further studies. Key words: Five-year clinical medicine major; Dermatovenereology; Dermatopathology
