Abstract

Objective To investigate the effect of case-based learning (CBL) and What-Why-How-How do (W2H2) thinking training in clerkship in geriatrics department.Methods 45 clerkship students in the department of geriatrics were randomly divided into CBL+ W2H2 teaching group (n=23) and traditional teaching group (n=22). At the end of clerkship,theoretical examination,clinical case writing examination and questionnaire were carried out.Results The scores of students in CBL+W2H2 teaching group were higher than those in traditional teaching group. In addition, the learning initiative, the ability of doctor-patient communication and self-confidence of students in CBL+W2H2 teaching group were better than those in traditional teaching group.Conclusions Combined teaching methods of CBL and W2H2 thinking training can improve the teaching quality in the clinical clerkship in geriatrics department.
