It can enable students to have an immersive experience of arcane neurobiological experiments, help to understand and absorb theoretical knowledge, stimulate students’ interest and curiosity, and improve the teaching effectiveness of neurobiology experimental courses.
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of teaching morning handover in clinical teaching of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in general hospitals. Methods A retrospective study was conducted at the Institute of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, West China Hospital of Sichuan University from April 2023 to March 2024, involving a total of 220 participants including interns, postgraduates/standardized training students, and residents/refresher students. The control group consisted of trainees who studied from April to September 2023, while the observation group included those who studied from October 2023 to March 2024. Teaching morning handover was added to the clinical morning report for the observation group, while the control group only conducted the conventional clinical morning report. Due to the differences in basic knowledge and clinical positioning, trainees except interns were classified as clinical residents. A questionnaire survey including satisfaction of teaching content, teaching methods, teaching ability and teaching management and graduation assessment including total score, theoretical assessment score, clinical process score and participation in teaching activities were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with those of the interns (n=57) and clinical residents (n=49) in the control group respectively, there was no statistically significant difference in satisfaction of teaching content, teaching methods or teaching ability of the interns (n=78) and clinical residents (n=36) in the observation group (P>0.05); however, teaching management satisfaction was significantly improved (interns P=0.002, clinical residents P=0.022). Both the interns and clinical residents in the observation group had a significantly higher total score as well as theoretical assessment score and increased participation in teaching activities (P values for interns were <0.001, 0.001, and <0.001, respectively, and for clinical residents were <0.001, 0.013, and <0.001, respectively). However, there was no significant difference observed between groups regarding clinical process score (P>0.05). Conclusion Teaching morning handover is helpful in improving the quality of TCM teaching in general hospitals and is an effective model for clinical teaching of TCM.

Optometry involves knowledge from multiple fields such as biology, physics, chemistry, psychophysics, and medicine. Traditional undergraduate education in optometry mainly focuses on knowledge transmission and lacks interaction, resulting in low student interest and unsatisfactory teaching outcomes. In order to improve this situation, the teaching team of Department of Optometry and Visual Science, West China School of Medicine, Sichuan University proposed a method of integrating real visual experiences into teaching. By combining multimedia tools and existing methods, real visual phenomena and personal visual experiences are integrated into the curriculum. This new teaching method stimulates students’ interest in learning, increases classroom interaction, promotes knowledge understanding and application through vivid visual phenomena and students’ own visual experiences. This article will introduce the above teaching method.
