Problem-based learning (PBL) tutors identified six student challenges in a hybrid curriculum. These issues may stem from students lacking essential problem-solving and interpersonal skills for effective PBL engagement.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Pedagogy

Background:

  • Problem-based learning (PBL) is a student-centered pedagogy.
  • Hybrid PBL-lecture curricula integrate PBL with traditional lectures.
  • Facilitator challenges in hybrid PBL are not well-documented.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify problems encountered by PBL tutors in a hybrid PBL-lecture curriculum.
  • To understand student-related issues impacting PBL facilitation.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study involving interviews with 27 PBL tutors.
  • Thematic analysis of tutor-reported problems.

Main Results:

  • Six primary student-related problems were identified: mini-lecturing, dysfunctional group dynamics, rapid case completion, superficial research, tutor content expertise frustration, and inadequate PBL support.

  • These issues may indicate deficits in students' problem-solving and interpersonal skills.

    • Conclusions:

    • Hybrid PBL-lecture curricula face unique facilitation challenges.
    • Addressing student skill gaps in problem-solving and interpersonal dynamics is crucial for successful PBL implementation.
    • Further support and training for students in PBL are recommended.
