整形外科选修课程对临床医学本科生的影响及教学模式初探

The impact of a plastic surgery elective course on medical undergraduates and a preliminary investigation of teaching mode

目的明确开设整形外科本科课程的必要性,优化教学模式。方法选取上海交通大学医学院九院临床医学院2017-2019级临床医学本科生作为调查对象,根据是否接受过整形外科选修课和(或)临床课程(大内外临床基础课)将学生分成3组,采用问卷方式调查当前本校整形外科选修课对学生认知程度、兴趣、信息获取渠道、未来择业取向等的影响。结果共发放111份问卷,回收103份(有效问卷98份)。92.31%学生接受课程后提高了对整形外科的兴趣,且普遍对人体美学及美容外科常用技术感兴趣,并希望在理论选修课的基础上增加临床见习课程。结论开设整形外科本科课程能提高学生对整形外科的认知,有助于日后医学生的专业选择。此外,适当添加学科前沿进展可开拓学生思维、丰富教学模式,有利于全面提高教学质量。

Objective To assess the necessity of introducing a plastic surgery course at the undergraduate level,which would enhance the current teaching method.Methods The survey subjects were undergraduate students from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from the classes of 2017 to 2019,who were divided into three groups based on whether they had taken plastic surgery elective courses and/or clinical courses(internal medicine and surgical courses).Questionnaire was used to investigate the influence of the current elective course on students’comprehension level,interest,information acquisition channels,future career orientation in plastic surgery.Results A total of 111 questionnaires were distributed,with 103 of them being returned(98 of which were deemed valid).Following completion of the course,92.31%of students expressed an increased interest in plastic surgery.The students are generally interested in common techniques of human body aesthetics and cosmetic surgery,and they desire clinical clerkships in addition to the current theoretical electives.Conclusion The introduction of a plastic surgery course at the undergraduate level is advantageous for enhancing students’understanding of plastic surgery and assisting them in choosing their future specialty.Furthermore,appropriate inclusion of the subject’s frontier progress can broaden students’thinking and enrich the teaching mode,which is expected to improve overall teaching quality.
