Background: Insulin injection education is important in diabetes mellitus patients’ treatment in order to control blood glucose levels. Objective: To present a new innovative teaching method for insulin injection. Methods: Samples included diabetes patients, who were taught the first insulin injection at the diabetes clinic, Ramathibodi Hospital. They were divided into 2 groups (35 patients in each group): the experimental group was taught by the abdomen model for injections, and the control group was instructed by a traditional lecture style. Three evaluation forms were used: 1) injection observation sheet; 2) self-evaluation sheet of understanding and injection skill of the diabetes patients; and 3) evaluate efficiency form of teaching insulin injection model. Results: The study revealed that the experimental group understood injection methods both in terms of injection skills and confidence in self-injection at more than 97% except for fear. The study found that trypanophobia decreased 70.2% and fear of pain reduced 82.8%. The abdomen model teaching method yielded effective results to increase injection skills, knowledge, and understanding of self-injection. Conclusions: This abdomen model is now used to teach insulin injection as a commercial product sold at the Center of Excellent Innovation, Faculty of Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University.

Abstract Background In this study, we applied the small private online course (SPOC) and team-based learning (TBL) blended teaching model to dermatology and venereology to ensure a higher quality learning experience for clinical medical students. Methods A total of 52 fifth-grade clinical undergraduates from Xiangya School of Medicine of Central South University were randomly divided into an experimental (n = 26) and a control group (n = 26). In March 2018, we used the SPOC and TBL blended teaching model in the experimental group and explored the effects of innovative teaching in the dermatology and venereology course, compared with the control group receiving the conventional teaching method. We analyzed the two groups’ theoretical assessment scores and questionnaire results to evaluate the efficiency of the new pedagogy. Results Students in the experimental group had a better understanding than the control group of the dermatology and venereology content and higher scores on the case analysis questions in the final theoretical examination. The results revealed that the majority of the experimental group students agreed that the novel teaching model blended with SPOC&TBL helped them significantly stimulate motivation and develop their ability in self-directed learning, independent thinking, literature retrieval, presentation board, teamwork, communication, and systematic clinical thinking. The teaching satisfaction survey of the two groups showed that the students’ satisfaction in the experimental group was significantly higher than in the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusions The SPOC&TBL teaching model is better than the traditional one in enriching students’ professional knowledge and cultivating their comprehensive ability. It can effectively promote educational quality, improve students’ learning effects, and enhance their satisfaction. This method has broad application prospects.

Abstract Background: By establishing an innovative teaching model, teachers and students can optimize the education outcome. Lecture-Based Learning (LBL) model has long been widely used as main teaching method in medical course in Chinese culture with a positive result of grades, however, negative of practice. Case-Based Learning (CBL) model modified it by focusing on clinical case study, yet with its limitations. The aim of our study is to discuss the effect of applying a comprehensive renewal CBL model: Micro-Film Case Based Learning (MF+CBL) Model, in pediatrics theoretical course in senior year students under Chinese culture.Methods: Experimental research was conducted by parallel group control study. The total sample was 104 senior year students (Chinese) majoring in clinical medicine from Guangxi Medical University. The experimental group was intervened by MF+CBL model, while the control group by LBL model. Both process and result were assessed after 8-week courses, by questionnaires of Student Self-Assessment, Satisfaction Survey and Final examination.Results: The outcome of experimental group generally surpassed control group in Student Self-Assessment, Satisfaction Survey, and Final examination. The open question at the end of the questionnaire yet unfolded a fact that a small number of students were not used to the MF+CBL model due to its time and energy consuming feature.Conclusions: MF+CBL model was an innovative teaching method, compared with LBL, with a better contribution of comprehensive quality development,which offered an alternative model to optimize the capacity of future pediatrics doctors.

AbstractThis study investigates the effectiveness of the reflection-based reciprocal teaching (RBRT) approach for Myanmar upper secondary school students’ reading comprehension in English. In the RBRT approach, the main frame is based on the reflective teaching model for reading comprehension (Oo and Habók in Int Electron J Elementary Educ 13(1):127–138, 2020), in which the reciprocal teaching method (involving questioning, clarifying, summarizing, and predicting) was applied. This study used cluster randomized trials. Two groups participated in the research: the experimental group, who were taught with the RBRT approach, and the control group, who were taught with traditional methods. Results showed that the RBRT approach has a strong effect on students’ English reading comprehension achievement. The experimental group increased its achievement on the posttest significantly, and the students’ results showed high effect size. It was also found that teachers’ reflection on the instructional context had a considerable impact on raising students’ reading comprehension achievement. The RBRT approach can be successfully applied in the classroom environment to develop students’ reading comprehension in English in Myanmar.
