Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper systematically discusses the theoretical basis, practical path, and significance of integrating civic and political education into the teaching of Chinese medicine diagnostics. As a core course connecting basic theory and clinical practice, the teaching reform of TCM diagnostics needs to break through the “triple structural contradiction”: cultural interpretation fault, alienation of value goals, and narrowing of evaluation dimensions. The study proposes a “multi-dimensional integration path”: at the level of top-level design, exploration and integration of elements, pedagogical innovation, enhancement of faculty, and improvement of the evaluation system. The study clarifies the significance of integrating civic and political education into the teaching of TCM diagnostics, and reconstructs the value system of “Virtual of Great Physician,” which is of great significance to break the dilemma of “triple-heavy and triple-light” in medical education, and to cultivate complex TCM talents with exquisite medical skills and humanistic sentiments.
