To further improve the teaching quality of the advanced regional anatomy elective course for Ph.D.students and strengthen the professional curriculum construction,we conducted the teaching with a lecture combined with team-based learning(TBL)mode.The Ph.D.students who chose the course were first divided into four large groups according to their majors,and each large group was further divided into 3~4 small groups.Through the teacher's thematic lectures,group discussions and dissection operations,the students'learning enthusiasm was triggered and the learning objectives were made clearer.The student questionnaire survey and the classroom evaluation by non-teaching teachers showed that the Ph.D.students were satisfied with the teaching mode and content,and the learning effect was good.
