Objective: To investigate the application of WPBL (Web Problem-Based Learning) teaching model in surgical teaching so as to better explore and research surgical teaching model. Methods: Questionnaire survey was given to the objects selected from students and teachers of Youjiang Medical University for Nationalities through random table number. Results: Most of the teachers knew about WPBL teaching model and agreed with the introduction of WPBL. As for the students’ satisfaction degree for teaching methods, almost half of the students believed that the teachers could apply flexible and various teaching methods in the classroom teaching, 18% of the students thought that only a small number of teachers met the requirement, but there were still 2% of the students who held that teachers didn’t meet above-mentioned requirement. Conclusion: Teachers have a certain understanding about WPBL teaching model, but the understanding is not deep enough, so the standardized teaching training for teachers is very necessary. At the same time, the students’ high satisfaction degree for teaching and teachers approval indicated that WPBL teaching mode can be recognized by the teachers and students consistently.
