A Study on the Extracurricular Classes Education Model of Chinese Medicine and the Cultivation of Comprehensive Practical Ability of Chinese Students from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Overseas

Objective: To explore the extracurricular classes teaching mode and clinical practice ability of Chinese medicine in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. Methods: A retrospective control study method was used to select the grade 2014 undergraduates and grade 2015 undergraduates of Jinan University as the research object, and the average performance of the two different modes in the traditional teaching and the new competition unit as a second class was added. Points, class pass rate, excellent rate and award-winning situation are compared to evaluate the effect of the new teaching model. Results: There is no significant difference between the 2014 level and the 2015 grades of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. For the performance point, the 2015 Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan students are increasing. There was no significant difference in the mean GPA between grade 2 and grade 2014 before the competition teaching model (P > 0.05). After the competition teaching mode, the average GPA of the third grade of the former was much higher than that of the latter (P < 0.05), compared with that of the overseas Chinese students of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan who received only the traditional Chinese medicine subject education in grade 2014 (P < 0.05). From the point of passing rate and excellent rate, the pass rate and excellent rate of grade 1 were much higher than that of grade 2014, and the difference between them was statistically significant (P < 0.05). As far as the award is concerned, the status of award-winning and project establishment in 2015 was higher than that in grade 2014, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Competition teaching is beneficial to the training of Chinese medicine learning and clinical practice ability of Chinese students from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas.
