测试效应在新药评价教学中的应用初探

Application of Testing Effect in Teaching Drug Research and Evaluation

目的《新药研究与评价》涉及新药研发的所有阶段,知识点广而散,学生难以记忆。测试效应指的是在同等时间内从记忆中提取信息比重学同样的内容能产生更好地记忆效果。本文探讨测试效应在新药评价教学中的教学效果。方法选取我校2014级药学专业和生物技术专业两个班次作为研究对象,将其随机分为实验班和对照班。对照班15名,采用传统教学方法 ;实验班15名,予以测试效应教学法。在课程结束时,进行理论水平和考核问卷表调查,比较组间差异。结果实验班中,理论成绩为(85.4±7.4)分、学生满意度均优于对照班,差异具有统计学意义(P <0.05)。结论在新药评价课程教学中引入这一教学方法,增强学生对所学知识的记忆,提高教学质量。

Objective “Drug Research and Evaluation” is a basic course which covers a wide range of contents associated with drug development. The testing effect is the fnding that long-term memory is increased when some of the learning period is devoted to retrieving the to-be-remembered information through testing with proper feedback. This study is design to explore the effect of testing effect on the teaching effect of drug research and evaluation. Methods The subjects of this study were students of pharmacy major and biotechnology major from Second Military Medical University. 15 members of biotechnology major were selected as the research objects. 15 members of pharmacy major were given the traditional teaching method. In the completion of assessment, theoretical level and questionnaire were used to evaluate the teaching effect of the two groups. Results In the experimental group, the theoretical score was （85.4±7.4） points and the satisfaction of the students were better than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant （P 〈 0.05）. Conclusion The application of testing effect in drug research and evaluation will help students master and apply the knowledge, which guarantees a satisfactory teaching effect.
