Methods： choose between September 2013 and September 2013 128 clinical professional students, average by using the lottery will be divided into control group and the team, every 64 students for 1 set, in surgical experimental teaching as a research courses, the teaching methods for the traditional teaching method in the control group, while the team gives PBL teaching mode, the teaching effect of the final will be two groups of students are analyzed and compared. Results： through different teaching methods for teaching, compared with control group, the group at the student＇s test scores, and the ability to significantly higher, the difference of both P 〈 0.05, there is statistically significant. Conclusion： using PBL teaching mode in the surgical experimental teaching effect is remarkable, can promote the students＇ comprehensive ability and is worth popularizing application.展开更多

Framed by Paul and Elder＇s （2001） CT model, the study explores how CT could be effectively taught in L2 writing as a way to improve students＇ CT skills and L2 writing performance. In this study, an infusion approach was developed and implemented in actual classroom teaching. Mixed methods were employed to investigate： （1） the effectiveness of the infusion approach on improving students＇ CT and L2 writing scores; （2） the relationship between students＇ CT and L2 writing scores; and （3） the effects of the infusion approach on students＇ learning of CT and L2 writing. The results of the statistical analyses indicate that the infusion approach has effectively improved students＇ CT and L2 writing scores and that there was a significant positive relationship （r=0.893, p〈0.01） between students＇ CT and L2 writing scores. The results of the post-study interview illustrate that the infusion approach has beneficial effects on students＇ learning of CT and L2 writing by bridging the abstract CT theories and interactive writing activities and by integrating the instruction and practice of CT into those of L2 writing.展开更多
