Problem Based Learning (PBL)
Under the MBBS undergraduate program at the college of medicine. This course uses a small group setting in which students can benefit from peer and facilitator feedback and support each other's learning. During Problem-Based Learning sessions (fall and spring semester; two days a week for each block session), students will work as PBL course facilitators, provide a PBL case wrap-up and develop a PBL case. Students will work either in a small group to discuss and figure out the case presented. Each case will be realistic and objective-driven to mimic clinical skills settings of the current block students are learning. At the end of each case students are asked to present the new learning objectives they learned form the case and how its related to what they are learning in the theory of that block system.
