Exploration of VR Combined with BOPPPS Teaching Model in Ultrasound Education
Objective:This study aims to explore the application and teaching effectiveness of combining Virtual Reality(VR)models with the BOPPPS(Bridge-in,Objective,Pre-assessment,Participatory Learning,Post-assessment,and Summary)teaching model in ultrasound medical undergraduate education.Methods:A total of 61 undergraduate students from the Ultrasound Teaching and Research Office at the First Clinical College of China Medical University,taught from January to December 2021,were selected for the study.They were divided into two groups:the experimental group(VR model combined with BOPPPS teaching,n=29)and the control group(traditional teaching,n=32).After the teaching period,final theory exams,process stage tests,and teaching satisfaction evaluations were conducted for both groups.Results:The final theory exam scores for the experimental group and control group were(80.13±7.93)and(77.29±8.10)respectively,with no significant statistical difference(t=1.38,P=0.17).However,in the process stage tests,the experimental group scored significantly higher on chapter knowledge points compared to the control group,with a significant difference(P<0.001).Teaching satisfaction surveys showed that the experimental group had significantly higher scores in overall satisfaction,achievement of learning objectives,and interest in the subject(all P<0.001).Conclusion:The VR combined with BOPPPS teaching model helps students better correlate anatomical and ultrasound images,increases classroom engagement,enhances interest in the subject,and improves knowledge application ability.
