Abstract

Abstract: Objective To evaluate the application effect of training the trainer (TTT) mode in improving the teaching quality of clinical teachers. Methods This study used experimental control、questionnaire survey and personal interview method. Twenty clinical teachers from the Sixth People's Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University were selected and randomly divided into group A and group B. At first, TTT training was conducted only in group A, and 26 fourth-grade students of the 5-year program of clinical medicine were surveyed using the Stanford faculty development program 25 questionnaire (Chinese version) to know the teaching effects of teachers both from group A and group B. Then, TTT training was conducted in group B to investigate the difference in the scores before and after TTT training. At last,semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 clinical teachers and 3 experts to get their evaluations of TTT training result. Results After TTT training only in group A, the scores of the teaching ability were (3.40±0.03) points and (3.14±0.02) points respectively for clinical teachers in group A and group B, and the difference was statistically significant (t=7.17, P<0.01). The scores of the teaching ability of teachers in group B before and after the TTT training were (3.14±0.02) points and (3.31±0.02) points respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (t=5.65, P<0.01). Clinical teachers and teaching experts agreed that TTT training can help improve the teaching ability of clinical teachers. Conclusions The TTT training content in this study has applicability and can improve the teaching ability of clinical teachers to a certain extent. Other medical colleges can refer to and train clinical teachers in their own environment.
