BackgroundDespite great advances, China’s postgraduate education faces many problems, for example traditional lecture-based learning (LBL) method provides fewer oppotunities to apply knowledge in a working situation. Task-based learning (TBL) is an efficient strategy for increasing the connections among skills, knowledge and competences. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a modified TBL model on problem-solving abilities among postgraduate medical students in China.MethodsWe allocated 228 first-year postgraduate students at Third Military Medical University into two groups: the TBL group and LBL group. The TBL group was taught using a TBL program for immunohistochemistry. The curriculum consisted of five phases: task design, self-learning, experimental operations, discussion and summary. The LBL group was taught using traditional LBL. After the course, learning performance was assessed using theoretical and practical tests. The students’ preferences and satisfaction of TBL and LBL were also evaluated using questionnaires.ResultsThere were notable differences in the mean score rates in the practical test (P < 0.05): the number of high scores (>80) in the TBL group was higher than that in the LBL group. We observed no substantial differences in the theoretical test between the two groups (P > 0.05). The questionnaire results indicated that the TBL students were satisfied with teaching content, teaching methods and experiment content. The TBL program was also beneficial for the postgraduates in completing their research projects. Furthermore, the TBL students reported positive effects in terms of innovative thinking, collaboration, and communication.ConclusionsTBL is a powerful educational strategy for postgraduate education in China. Our modified TBL imparted basic knowledge to the students and also engaged them more effectively in applying knowledge to solve real-world issues. In conclusion, our TBL established a good foundation for the students’ future in both medical research and clinical work.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s12909-017-0994-0) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Possible solutions to these problems include increasing pharmacy staff, scheduling patient appointments to avoid long waiting times, using automation, and getting reimbursements for the services provided, and pharmacists also need to promote themselves within their communities to overcome these problems. A previous investigation reported that close collaboration and communication with other health care providers could also foster an efficient patient care plan …”

“…5 Although oral chemotherapy clinics are still in their infancy, momentum in developing these types of programs is evident. [6][7][8] Although preliminary outcomes data for oral chemotherapy clinics are beginning to emerge, [7][8][9] the efficacy and cost impact of an oral chemotherapy management clinic with MTM programs remain to be determined. 6,7 Preliminary analyses have shown the potential for generating revenue through the establishment of an ambulatory oral chemotherapy program, mostly studied in pharmacist programs.…”
