Abstract：Objective To investigate the teaching effect of a blended online and offline learning mode that combines mi-cro-lectures and virtual simulation experiment in the preclinical course of dentistry and endodontics.Methods Totally 96 full-time undergraduates majoring in stomatology,Grade 2019,in West China College of Stomatology of Sichuan Uni-versity were selected.A blended teaching model was adopted,with students first learning independently using an"online virtual simulation experiment+micro-lecture"platform,followed by offline classroom teaching.After the course,a teach-ing evaluation questionnaire was distributed to evaluate the teaching effect.Results 100 questionnaires were distribut-ed and 96 were returned.Most of the students(60.4％,58/96)believed that the online blended mode was conducive to au-tonomous learning.Most students believed that it enabled them control the learning pace in a given timeframe(67.7％,65/96)and have the ability to learn autonomously during fragmented time(64.6％,62/96).The rapid mastery of the opera-tion process(71.9％,69/96)and the deepening of the understanding of abstract concepts(69.8％,67/96)were the main factors in promoting classroom learning.Conclusion This mode of online and offline teaching combines theoretical learning with practical operation,and it is supported by most students which can also promote the ability of autonomous learning and improve the learning ef-fect of laboratory courses.
