Abstract

探討香港大學中醫教育本土化的舉措,包括:在尊重中西醫文化差異的基礎上,用兩文三語講授中西醫知識;開展通識教育;結合香港特區特點進行貫穿教學全過程的臨床實踐;開展交換生計劃;整合海內外教育資源等,最大限度地培養學生的中醫綜合技能和綜合素養,最終實現'全人發展'的教育目標。指出香港大學中醫藥學院立足本土,注重學生'全人發展'的教育理念和教學舉措,值得內地中醫藥高等學院借鑒。 The measures of promoting TCM education localization in the University of HongKong were explored, which were:teaching the knowledge of integrative medicine with bi-literacy and tri-lingualism on the base of respecting cultural differences between Chinese and Western medicine;launching general education;clinical practice running through the whole course of teaching combined with the features of HongKong area;developing the plan of exchange students;integrating overseas education resources and others. These measures could make the students' TCM compre-hensive skills and quality fully cultivated;they were helpful to the educational goal of 'human development'. The school of traditional Chinese medicine of the University of Hong Kong paid attention to the educational concept 'human educa-tion' and teaching measures based on the local area itself, it would be a good example for domestic universities.
