Rites · university begins: "the way of university, in clearly, in people, in goodness". For thousands of years, the mission of the university is to make people better virtue itself, physical and psychological knowledge with each passing day, personality ideal realm. TCM higher education is to train high quality professionals of Chinese medicine and the era of innovation the folk medicines of ethnic minorities, and shoulder the spread of carrying forward the culture of TCM, the historical mission of building socialist culture power, it should be, a scholar at the university of office, in the process of cultivating students pay attention to professional concept, medical ethics norms, cultural inheritance and other aspects of education, strive to cultivate scientific spirit and humanistic spirit in parallel, the theoretical level and practical ability of high-quality talents of Chinese medicine.

The construction of university of Chinese medicine to clear "big four" "4"

For thousands of years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) education, inheritance is mainly rely on the family and the teacher give one of two ways. In the ancient traditional education mode, the teacher's professional ability, cultural accomplishment, personality quality osmosis in one-on-one kiss award. At present, the education form of niche have been unable to adapt to the expansion of the scale, promote the modern university requirements. Contemporary reform in colleges and universities is facing university of traditional Chinese medicine and traditional education through the double requirements, on the one hand, the need to adapt to the modern university scale, standardization and institutionalization of system structure and function of education, scientific research, social comprehensive value; Need to emphasize on the other hand, Chinese excellent traditional culture inheritance and lead, showing the value of higher education of Chinese medicine unique and characteristic. Therefore, how to integrate the modern higher education of Chinese medicine and the core of Chinese traditional education, is an important issue faced by the construction of colleges and universities of Chinese medicine. To answer good proposition of this age, you first need to clear the "big four" and "four of the importance of learning".

The so-called "big four", that is, the construction of the university of Chinese medicine to "building", "tree", "master" and "atmosphere" four cornerstone.

Shoulder the task of the national medicine the revitalization of the modern university of Chinese medicine, to provide first-class teaching conditions, to cultivate excellent students of Chinese medicine, to create first-class scientific research environment, recruit top creative talents, no "building" as the foundation to succeed.

"Tree" refers to the university history, humanities precipitation and osmosis. With the modernization of China's higher education, who has a new "building" and "gate" of public or private colleges and universities of TCM, but often accompanied by the thriving new atmosphere after staying power. Investigate its reason, it is construction of TCM colleges have accumulation history, ignore the cultural drive, lack of cultural background and characteristic.

QiHuang, pass on, without the "master". So-called "the mountain is not high, with fairy is name. Water not in deep, with dragons are spirit", the inheritance and development of contemporary Chinese medicine, especially need a batch of medical skills, knowledgeable, er of the grand masters held the flag of Chinese medicine, carry forward the traditional advantage of traditional Chinese medicine, the revitalization of the cultural spirit of traditional Chinese medicine. Mr CAI yuanpei Peking University presidents, especially advocating freedom of thought, compatible and package, a meritocracy, which at the time of Peking University culture, the academic schools of thought contend, master, you emerge in endlessly. In the construction of contemporary education and culture of traditional Chinese medicine is the most important one annulus, is by pushing more learning check all abundance in the name of the old Chinese medicine, to establish a practical and effective modern inheritance model, to train more excellent talents of Chinese medicine.

University, also care about the "atmosphere". So-called "atmosphere", means the colleges and universities of Chinese medicine include by the construction of spiritual culture, educational philosophy and cultural value aspects constitute the overall atmosphere. Mr Chen yinque in tsinghua university institute of the period, has advocated "the spirit of independence and freedom of thought" academic spirit and concept, such as the cross proverbs and the analects of Confucius "the gentleman and but different" from afar is even stronger than before, also should be our colleges and universities of Chinese medicine education, research the common pursuit of academic spirit and value orientation.

The so-called "four", emphasizes the higher education of Chinese medicine, especially the undergraduate education, should adhere to the "student-centered" "to teaching as the main body", adhere to the "student learning" focusing on the basic knowledge, basic skills, adhere to the "subject construction and specialty construction coordination development".

Adhere to the "student-centered" concept, is to give full play to the initiative and initiative of students, to better develop the students' innovation spirit, practice ability and analytical and problem solving skills.

Adhere to the "to teaching as the main body", should become the consensus of higher colleges and universities of Chinese medicine undergraduate education. "Teaching" is always the school different from other research or the most essential feature of the public sector, "adhere to the teaching main body status, improve the teaching quality of education" has always been the central task of the Chinese medicine colleges and universities of undergraduate education.

Adhere to the "student learning" focusing on the basic knowledge, basic skills, emphasizes the undergraduate course personnel training should still be in "a firm foundation of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine thinking" as the main line, from set out actually, step by step, makes students have a good knowledge reserves and the basic skills of traditional Chinese medicine.

Adhere to the "subject construction and specialty construction harmonious development", for teaching and scientific research complement each other and prompted both get the integration of scientific and reasonable.

Do a good job in higher education of Chinese medicine to understand the connotation of traditional Chinese medicine

Sun simiao said "medical source, the diligence tireless", emphasis is the medical man need to attach importance to the essence of TCM, tirelessly to learn the basic knowledge of TCM. Unfortunately, the lack of the contemporary cultural factors in the basic education, led directly to the lack of high school students for the basic understanding of traditional culture of traditional Chinese medicine, will cause a lot of learning and understanding in the process of the undergraduate education of Chinese medicine. What should be how to understand the traditional Chinese medicine to learn Chinese medicine? I think the first thing we should distinguish connotation of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine.

Under the influence of Chinese traditional culture and traditional philosophy of traditional Chinese medicine, is for thousands of years past dynasties doctor in theory, comprehensive, and clinical experience on collective experience is a medicine; Western medicine is emphasized more dissection, animal experiment and clinical observation. In terms of thinking methods, tend to take the analogy of traditional Chinese medicine, emphasis on macro thinking, at the same time pay attention to the intuitive thinking and inductive thinking, there is often an Epiphany genius found (e.g., channels and collaterals theory); Western medicine lay particular stress on the microcosmic, the attention based on the hypothesis, certificate and form the rational thought. Of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on the diagnosis way, as an experienced person for watermelon, see, touch, and re-building can find good watermelon, is a "black box" of thinking, through the inspection, auscultation and olfaction, inquiry, and pulse-taking and palpation four diagnostic model can determine the illness; While the western medicine picking watermelon is directly cut watermelon to determine the wheat from the chaff, is "white box" thinking, need specific medical tools for diagnosis, traumatic, hard to avoid in the process have easy to cause the doctor-patient relationship nervous, too. On treatment, Chinese medicine source traditional philosophy thinking, emphasis on "harmony", attaches great importance to the acquisition of modern; Western medicine USES science and technology, widely used against treatment. In theory, pay attention to the "nature and humanity" of traditional Chinese medicine "apt" the overall concept of "as one", attaches great importance to the syndrome differentiation and individual differences, focus on "sick man"; In contrast with the local microscopic, western medicine in the diagnosis of diseases of "person" tendency on research.

Undergraduate education of Chinese medicine after clearly distinguish the differences of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine, also should stick to the traditional Chinese medicine is scientific in education, make students understand where is the advantage of traditional Chinese medicine, and love of learning of traditional Chinese medicine, in traditional Chinese medicine career. About the concept of science, all kinds of dictionaries and teaching materials has more than 60, the explanation of opinion, guess. But my point is: rational, useful to combining theory with practice, systematic knowledge system is the scientific theory system, diagnosis and treatment. In this sense, the traditional Chinese medicine is a science is indisputable.

Undergraduate education of Chinese medicine, on the whole, the attention is on the basic knowledge of students, the concept of teaching. Lack the understanding of the contemporary college students in the humanities aspects of traditional Chinese medicine as well as the high school for science knowledge lay particular stress on, sometimes makes them difficult to understand TCM theory. So stick to the traditional Chinese medicine scientific nature, clarify the differences and advantages and disadvantages of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine, is we need to constantly stressed in the higher education of Chinese medicine teaching.

Cultivating high-quality talents of Chinese medicine to advocate new-confucianism

"To know the standard, content, and then know to", colleges and universities of Chinese medicine personnel training should be special emphasis on the concept of "new-confucianism". "New-confucianism" emphasizes the knowledge and practice of complement each other, is the so-called "unity".

Chinese medicine has a scientific, empirical, culture, originality, and industrial session five attributes, the idea of "new-confucianism" should be fully reflected in the dimensions of the study of traditional Chinese medicine. First of all, the traditional Chinese medicine is a clinical practical discipline, which requires not only in the education of traditional Chinese medicine to "know", more should fully emphasize "line". Second, the traditional Chinese medicine is an important part of Chinese traditional culture, from culture and service culture, bear the historical mission of cultural inheritance, cultural power, which requires the higher education of Chinese medicine to special emphasis on the concept of "Renaissance" of medical. Moreover, chairman MAO once said: "Chinese medicine is a great treasure, should strive to explore", Chinese medicine has great originality and industrial session, the higher education of Chinese medicine of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) should not only seek them by "know" the original, through the "line" of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to develop the industrial session.

Effective to cultivate students "new-confucianism" and "unity", first requires teachers to have "according to their aptitude", "teaching without class" education philosophy. Should attach great importance to the value, the potential of students and differences, teach students different learning methods, to help them achieve their unity of knowledge. Secondly, we should emphasize progressive approach to learning. Educator Zhu Xiceng when it comes to reading should be "to the high, such as mountain climbing, more people don't know the place is ignored, no to high end", advocating one step a footprint, down-to-earth to learn, is the so-called "knowledge depends on", it is particularly important in the education of TCM. Finally, the higher education also advocates the Renaissance of traditional Chinese medicine. Study of traditional Chinese medicine are not isolated, must learn the traditional Chinese medicine is not just rely on textbooks, but also read widely, extensive study of Chinese traditional culture, traditional philosophy, as well as the western medicine, other ethnic medicine, and many other fields of knowledge.

Qing dynasty writer wang guowei had put forward a famous theory of reading, the reading three states: "' last night, westerly garden tree, alone on tall building, at tianya road. The first round also. 'pine will not regret, to the gadites gaunt.' the second condition is. 'he found thousands of baidu, suddenly look back, that person but in the lights dim.' the third also." The student's learning process of Chinese medicine, etc. "Means" at the beginning of, clear goal and direction of traditional Chinese medicine study, been, persistent pursuit; "Can into the flexibility to use", through hard work in the Chinese medicine knowledge learning and reading, new-confucianism, but small extent; "The end" can easily understood, again through continuous learning, and to achieve mastery through a comprehensive study, the state of unity.

Implementation of "whole person" education practice big medical sincerely

Chinese excellent traditional medical ethics is a precious spiritual wealth of traditional Chinese medicine, is also the important spiritual connotation of the culture of Chinese medicine. The current academic circles for the definition of culture core values of traditional Chinese medicine, including the "nature and humanity" to "be a natural" "sincerely" major medical "d is our" "people-oriented", "love your life" "sincere and" and so on many kinds of expression, but they reflect the spirit's connotation on thoughts of traditional medical ethics and heritage value. With today's market economy and the rapid development of medical technology, medical and health industry faces huge impact and challenges, people for traditional "medicine is our" return calls more and more big, to further strengthen China's excellent traditional medical ethics culture has important realistic meaning and time value.

Therefore, colleges and universities of Chinese medicine should have "holistic education" concept of talent training, pay attention to the double building of knowledge ability and quality accomplishment, should not only attach importance to students' professional ability, language ability, communication ability, and to cover the students' science and the humanities and the cultivation of physical quality, psychological quality, etc. Especially to emphasize "medical is our" "big d sincere" as the core of the traditional medical ethics thought of penetration, tangible culture core values of traditional Chinese medicine can be incorporated into the cultivation of college students' socialist core values, to cultivate students sound world outlook, the outlook on life, values, make them become noble medical ethics and personality perfect.

Implement "holistic education" of traditional Chinese medicine theory, requires teachers should fully realizes the function of the "preaching, knowledge and to reassure" requirement, not only to have professional ethics spirit of "candles", more should pay attention to the cultivation of the students initiative, stimulate students "autonomous learning" "positive efforts learning" and "creative learning consciousness and enthusiasm. Educator hu shi had the famous gakumon party, namely "the question pill, interest and confidence, soup, reflect on paste four herbs", is to tell students to study with questions actively, strive to cultivate interest in study, and to have confidence in themselves, and often self-reflection.

Higher education of Chinese medicine is shouldering the realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation's traditional Chinese medicine "Chinese dream" and cultural prosperity, the revitalization of the historical mission of "dream" of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine high-quality talent is inheriting the effectives of innovation the folk medicines of ethnic minorities and promote strong driving force for the sustainable development of China's medical and health cause. Higher education of Chinese medicine workers should coagulation hearts meet force, unity is strength, and strive to build the international well-known domestic first-class high level university of Chinese medicine, strive to cultivate high theoretical level and practical ability, occupational moral, characteristic of high quality talents of traditional Chinese medicine of traditional Chinese medicine, efforts to do a good job in people's satisfaction of the higher education of Chinese medicine, the development of the cause of the motherland of Chinese medicine and national medicine and health care career progress dedication and strive.
