Approaches to enhance the teaching quality of experimental biochemistry for MBBS students in TSMU, China

Abstract

With the internationalization of medical education in China, the importance of international students' education in medical schools is also increasing. Except foreign students majoring in Chinese language, English Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBSS) students are the largest group of international students. Based on problems in the teaching process for experimental biochemistry, we designed teaching models adapted to the background of international students and strengthened teachers' teaching ability at Taishan Medical University. Several approaches were used in combination to promote teaching effects and increase the benefit of teaching to teachers. The primary data showed an increased passion for basic medical biochemistry and an improved theoretical background for MBSS students, which will be helpful for their later clinical medicine studies. © 2017 by The International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 45(4):360-364, 2017.

Prespective of medical students towards experimental biochemistry

“…Our study has shown results better than we expected, but the achieved target was lower compare of our study compare to this study; that is between 60% and 70%. 13 Shifa Tameer-e-Millat University (STMU) has tried to adapt international clinical education curriculum inside the subsequent 5-year developmental plan. The BP Koirala University of Health Sciences in Nepal and India is known for its academic excellence.…”

“…1 Hence, the importance of sound and practical knowledge in the education of clinical college students has become inevitable to ignore especially in Biochemistry. 2 Genetics is an integral part of Biochemistry. The research and advancements in genetics make it impossible to ignore in clinical medicine.…”

Application of a Short Video Caption Generation Algorithm in International Chinese Education and Teaching

“…These contents are close to the contemporary life of Chinese people and depict a new and real China to foreigners; at the same time, these contents are also the hot topics in which Chinese learners are most interested. The use of short videos of foreigners in China in classroom teaching can help Chinese learners further understand and understand contemporary Chinese society and culture (Yu et al, 2017). 2.…”

TESOT: a teaching modality targeting the learning obstacles in global medical education

“…Attendance is usually considered important for learning efficiency (24). Thus we analyzed the absence rate, expressed as percentage of lecture attendance by each student and its correlation with the final score.…”
