Epidemiology is one of main courses for undergraduate students majoring in preventive medicine. There are some limitations in the traditional epidemiology teaching, which is usually characterized in indoctrinated education: "lectured by the teachers and listened by the students." In Zhejiang University, staff of the epidemiology division tried to explore a new teaching mode as 'student-centered, teacher-leading, question-based, and combining with literature discussion and course practice.' After practicing for two years, students were inspired in learning initiatives, with teaching effectiveness obviously improved.
流行病学是预防医学专业本科生的主要课程之一。传统的流行病学教学存在一些局限性，其通常以灌输式教育为特征：“教师讲，学生听”。在浙江大学，流行病学教研室的工作人员尝试探索一种新的教学模式，即“以学生为中心、教师引导、问题导向，并结合文献讨论和课程实践”。经过两年的实践，学生的学习积极性得到激发，教学效果明显提高。
