Analysis of the Application Effect of Sandwich Teaching Method Combined with Case Teaching Method in Clinical Teaching of Otoendoscopy

Objective: To analyze the application effect of the Sandwich teaching method combined with the case teaching method in clinical teaching of otoendoscopy. Methods: Fifty-five medical students who were studying in the 2019 grade of the medical school and interning in the otolaryngology department of Shaanxi Provincial People’s Hospital from March 2024 to July 2024 were selected as the research subjects. They were divided into two groups using a random number table method. The traditional lecture-style teaching method was implemented in the control group (n = 25), while the case teaching method combined with the Sandwich teaching method was implemented in the study group (n = 30). The application effect was evaluated by comparing the comprehensive ability level scores, the results of the department exit test, and the satisfaction evaluation of the teaching method between the two groups. Results: Before enrollment, there was no statistically significant difference in comprehensive ability scores between the control group and the study group (P > 0.05). At the time of department exit, the comprehensive ability scores of both groups increased significantly (P < 0.05), and the study group had higher scores than the control group (P < 0.05). The study group had higher scores on the department exit test than the control group (P < 0.05). The teaching satisfaction scores of the students in the study group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Applying the Sandwich teaching method combined with the case teaching method in the clinical teaching process of otoendoscopy can enhance students’ subjective initiative, greatly improve their comprehensive abilities and academic performance, effectively improve teaching quality, and enhance teaching satisfaction. It is worthy of promotion and application.
