Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Pedagogy in Medicine

Background:

  • Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is not systematically implemented in Danish medical schools.
  • A need exists to evaluate innovative teaching methods in late-stage medical training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the introduction and student/tutor experience of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) in a 10th-term internal medicine and surgery course.
  • To compare PBL with traditional teaching methods in terms of student preference and perceived educational benefits.

Main Methods:

  • PBL was implemented in a 10th-term medical course for 93 students and 15 tutors over two terms.
  • Student and tutor feedback was collected to evaluate the PBL experience compared to traditional methods like bedside clinics and lectures.

Main Results:

Related Experiment Videos

  • 67% of students preferred PBL, 28% found it equally good, and only 2% disliked it.
  • Students highlighted increased motivation and active participation as key advantages of PBL.
  • Tutors valued PBL for teaching clinical coping strategies in realistic settings.

Conclusions:

  • PBL is a highly preferred and effective teaching method for medical students, enhancing engagement and clinical skills.
  • The positive experience supports the integration of PBL into the broader medical curriculum in Copenhagen.
