摘　　要：目的探讨如何在临床学习阶段加强医学生的医学专业英语学习。方法在医学生第四年级的教学计划中，安排62学时医学专业英语课堂教学。采取大班授课方式，每学年学生在40人左右。选择“风暴式医学教程”（Mosby’s Crash Course）系列教程中的《儿科学》（Pediatric）作为教材。同时，采用美国Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics第16版的部分章节作为师生课外选读教材。采用多媒体、情景对话等方式进行教学，以专业词汇为中心，加强词缀和构词法的学习，结合医学文献阅读，通过视觉和听觉映象的强化帮助记忆，通过角色演练学习英语习惯表达方法。学期结束时。对学生进行问卷调查和英语测验。结果调查结果显示，87％的学生认可此种多媒体技术结合情境教学，师生、学生之间多向交流的教学方式；92％的学生认为对儿科学专业英语学习有所帮助；58％的学生认为医学专业单词是学习的难点；63％的学生认为教师讲解重要词汇，并介绍词缀和构词法有助于记忆和扩充词汇量；58％的学生认为多媒体授课方式容易接受。结论开设医学专业英语课程十分必要。学生对专业英语教材结合相关文献学习，以及采用多媒体教学的方式和效果有较高的认可率。通过加强专业词汇和习惯表达方式的教学，有助于提高学生的医学专业英语水平。Objective With the growing international exchanges and cooperation, doctors in the future need to have comprehensive medical English listening, speaking, writing and translation capabilities.
