The teaching design and implementation of “Helicobacter pylori” in medical microbiology
Background
Medical microbiology represents a fundamental core curriculum for medical students. In order to adapt to the cultivation of high-level medical talents under the guidance of the concept of holistic education, the focus of this course is on the development of scientific thinking and professionalism. This paper took the example of Helicobacter pylori, an important pathogen in the digestive system, addressing the teaching design of this chapter in medical microbiology.
Teaching design
The design of this chapter includes learning objectives, teaching content, teaching model and assessment. The learning objectives were designed under the outcome-based education philosophy, integrating the three dimensions of attitude, skill and knowledge. The content of this chapter is designed to integrate a number of key concepts, including systematic thinking, critical thinking, the One Health perspective, and the mission and responsibility of infectious disease prevention and control. Question-oriented online-and-offline blended teaching model was adopted, and a multi-objective assessment system was applied.
Implementation
A series of questions were designed before, during, and after the class. These questions served as the primary focus of learning, guiding students through various teaching activities, including online self-study, offline discussion and analysis, and online extended learning. Concurrently, the evaluation is integrated throughout the teaching process, with particular emphasis on formative and process evaluations.
Conclusions
This teaching design facilitated the achievement of learning objectives and optimized the teaching effect. The students’ self-assessment of their overall improvement in knowledge, skills and attitude, as well as their high level of satisfaction with the classroom environment, is presented herewith. The teaching design of this chapter has a particular demonstrative effect.
