Application of case study combined with scenario simulation in teaching clinical internship of radiation oncology
Objective To explore the effect of case study combined with scenario simulation in teaching clinical internship of radiation oncology.Methods This study selected 144 undergraduate students majoring in clinical medicine who interned at the Department of Radiotherapy at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from November 2022 to May 2023 as the research subjects.They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group.The control group received traditional teaching,while the observation group received case study combined with scenario simulation teaching,with 72 students in each group.The two groups of trainees were evaluated for theoretical and skill assessment scores,core competencies,and teaching satisfaction.The t-test and chi-square test were performed using SPSS 22.0.Results The theoretical and skill scores of the trainees in the observation group[(88.27±3.40)and(92.69±3.65)]were higher than those in the control group[(83.01±10.38)and(87.20±3.74)],and the differences were statistically significant.Compared with the control group,the observation group showed higher core competency scores in eight dimensions,including learning initiative and enthusiasm,knowledge comprehension ability,critical thinking ability,clinical specialty practice ability,analytical and problem-solving ability,doctor-patient communication,professional ethics,and teamwork ability,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The satisfaction scores of the observation group trainees of teaching plan,teaching content,teaching methods,teaching results,and teaching ability were higher than those of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions The application of case study combined with scenario simulation teaching clinical internship of radiation oncology can help improve the theoretical and skill scores of medical students,as well as their core competencies and teaching satisfaction.This is a teaching method worthy of application and promotion.
