Abstract: Case-based learning (CBL) has been widely used in medicaleducation, which takes case as the center, students as the main body, and aims at cultivating and build students' capacity to analyze and solve problems with their knowledge. The project population are undergraduates of 5-year curriculum in Medical College of Shihezi University, the teaching design and teaching implementation process in experimental course of medical microbiology, we implemented a case-based pedagogy. The teaching effect was evaluated by medical microbiology experiment examination, questionnaire survey and teacher-student forum. The results show that 87.3% (55/63) of students have excellent scores. Case-based learning applied in medical microbiology experiment course combines training with basic medicine and clinical performance, has been widely recognized by students and improves the teaching quality of medical microbiology experiment course.
