Book Problem Based Learning in Clinical Education

Download or read book Problem Based Learning in Clinical Education written by Susan Bridges and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed in the context of health sciences education in the late 1960s, problem-based learning (PBL) is now widely deployed as an education methodology. Its problem-solving, collaborative, student-centred ethos is seen as a more appropriate system of pedagogy than earlier ‘chalk-and-talk’ modes. Focusing on its use in clinical education, this collection of recent scholarship on PBL examines the ways in which PBL is both conceived and implemented in clinical education. The work has a dual emphasis, research-driven on the one hand, while on the other assessing new methodologies to explore how problem-based curricula support the achievement of students’ learning outcomes in the context of clinical education. The chapters draw on studies that explore PBL both theoretically and empirically. The volume’s eclecticism capitalises on the growing body of empirical research into PBL evaluations. It balances this with studies analysing the relatively new area of discourse-based research on PBL-in-action, whose focus has been to interrogate the ‘how’ of student learning in curricula with PBL content.This publication will be of interest to clinical teachers, curriculum designers and those interested in innovations in the scholarship of teaching and learning in PBL curricula.

Book excerpt: A Springer Series on Medical Education book "This is a book about the origins, design, implementation, and effects of the [Primary Care Curriculum at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine]. It is also so much more. It is a first-person account of a moving human experience, in which somes deeply caring people search for ways to provide a humane, effective learning experience for students who are seen as preparing to be practitioners of a humane, changing profession....In the 1920s, Gertrude Stein observed that the United States was now the oldest country in the world, for it was the first to join the twentieth century. Perhaps, we must now view the University of New Mexico's PCC as among the oldest programs in medical education, for it may prove to have been one of the first to join the twenty-first century."--Hilliard Jason, MD, EdD, Director, National Center for Faculty Development in the Health Professions, University of Miami School of Medicine

Book Problem based Learning for Administrators

Download or read book Problem based Learning for Administrators written by Edwin M. Bridges and published by University of Oregon ERIC Clearinghouse on Educational Management. This book was released on 1992 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Prospective Principals' Program at Stanford University, students are engaged in problem-based learning (PBL), a cooperative, small-group approach providing opportunities to resolve problems likely to confront real-world professionals. To illustrate PBL's background and rationale, chapter 1 briefly describes how the topic of teacher selection might be introduced using traditional, case-method, and PBL approaches. Chapter 2 focuses on the students' role and how instructors can minimize the frustration and difficulties students experience in Stanford's PBL curriculum. Chapter 3 describes a field test of the teacher selection project, focusing on valuable lessons for student and instructor. Chapter 4 explains the instructor's role in PBL and how to deal with potential challenges arising while implementing a PBL project. The fifth chapter contains six student essays to illustrate what students report learning about leadership and various administrative skills. Chapter 6 describes possible obstacles hindering PBL implementation and outlines a strategy for overcoming these impediments. The last chapter focuses on future challenges, including explicating student-centered learning, facilitating administrators' lifelong learning, conducting research on PBL effectiveness, and exploring other PBL contexts for educating administrators. Appendices provide a description of Stanford's PBL program, samples of problem-stimulated learning projects, and a project checklist. (50 references) (MLH)

Book Implementing Problem Based Learning in Leadership Development

Download or read book Implementing Problem Based Learning in Leadership Development written by Edwin M. Bridges and published by University of Oregon ERIC Clearinghouse on Educational Management. This book was released on 1995 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Messy, real-life problems provide the starting point for learning in a radically transformed instructional environment. In problem-based learning (PBL), students in educational administration classes--aspiring and current principals--jointly decide how to deal with the problems and learn leadership skills by facilitating collaboration and building consensus. This book seeks to convey how PBL can become a vehicle for building meaningful connections among research, theory, and practice in the classroom. Chapter 1 elaborates the model, illustrates how it has been used to prepare school leaders, and contrasts PBL with the case method. Chapters 2 through 4 offer strategies for developing PBL instructional materials, describe the instructor's role in implementing PBL in the classroom, and provide suggestions for developing multiple approaches to student assessment. The fifth chapter explores how PBL can be integrated in Ed.D. research, and how PBL can help doctoral students appropriately apply research, theory, and knowledge to problems that arise from educational policy and practice. The final chapter discusses instructional and curricular issues that arise during the implementation process. Appendices contain a sample PBL project, notes of project writing, a sample course syllabus, a project planning form, and a sample evaluation of a student project. One figure and three tables are included. (Contains 54 references.) (LMI)

Book New Directions for Medical Education

Download or read book New Directions for Medical Education written by Henk G. Schmidt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Primary care medicine is the new frontier in medicine. Every nation in the world has recognized the necessity to deliver personal and primary care to its people. This includes first-contact care, care based in a positive and caring personal rela tionship, care by a single healthcare provider for the majority of the patient's prob lems, coordination of all care by the patient's personal provider, advocacy for the patient by the provider, the provision of preventive care and psychosocial care, as well as care for episodes of acute and chronic illness. These facets of care work most effectively when they are embedded in a coherent integrated approach. The support for primary care derives from several significant trends. First, technologically based care costs have rocketed beyond reason or availability, occurring in the face of exploding populations and diminishing real resources in many parts of the world, even in the wealthier nations. Simultaneously, the primary care disciplines-general internal medicine and pediatrics and family medicine-have matured significantly. They have become viable alternatives to the specialty approach to care with its potential dehumanization, coordination problems, and increased cost.
