[Analysis on the application and evaluation of the case-based learning of Acupuncture-Moxibustion Techniques]

The feasibility of the case-based learning (CBL) of Acupuncture-Moxibustion Techniques is discussed in the aspects of the connotation application, implementation process and effect evaluation of CBL in teaching this course. The result shows that compared with the traditional teaching model, CBL achieves the same effects on the mastery of theoretic knowledge on the techniques of acupuncture, moxibustion and cupping for the undergraduates. Moreover, CBL presentes the obvious advantages on the improvements of the ability of the manipulation selection based on the clinical symptoms and the practical manipulative skills of the students. Hence, CBL is deserved to be promoted as an experimental unit in the professional technique courses of acupuncture-moxibustion.
