Synopsis

Seventy percent of U.S. medical schools report using problem-based learning (PBL) in the pre-clerkship years. However, without intensive training, faculty often struggle with organizing their teaching in a purposeful manner. This book documents the efficacy of an online PBL training module to assisting faculty in organizing PBL teaching sessions. This novel approach to PBL faculty development takes into account faculty and student perceptions and experiences. The information gathered and presented in this book illustrates how an online PBL training system can be implemented, as part of a larger faculty development program, to change and improve upon specific teaching behaviors.
