Summary
Learning by concordance (LbC) is an online strategy for health professions students to practice clinical reasoning. This guide details designing LbC tools, offering examples across medicine, nursing, physiotherapy, and dentistry.
Area of Science:
- Health Professions Education
- Medical Education Technology
- Clinical Reasoning Development
Background:
- Effective clinical reasoning is crucial for health professions.
- Online educational strategies are increasingly adopted by educators.
- Learning by concordance (LbC) is an innovative approach for practicing clinical reasoning.
Purpose of the Study:
- To describe the steps and elements for designing a Learning by concordance (LbC) tool.
- To provide guidance for educators considering the implementation of LbC modules.
- To illustrate LbC tool design with examples from diverse health professions.
Main Methods:
- The study outlines theoretical underpinnings of LbC.
- It discusses principles of LbC questioning and reasoning tasks.
- Key elements like reference panels, feedback mechanisms, and online platforms are detailed.
Main Results:

Reasoning is the action of thinking about something in a logical, sensible way. It is integral to problem-solving, decision-making, and critical thinking. Reasoning can be inductive or deductive. Reasoning involves transforming information into conclusions, which is essential for problem-solving, decision-making, and critical thinking.
Inductive reasoning involves deriving generalizations from specific observations. This type of reasoning helps form beliefs about the world. For example,...

Critical thinking helps decision-making and allows nurses to recognize barriers to success and find solutions to possible issues. It helps to brainstorm and implement ideas to achieve goals. Critical thinking helps acknowledge and state workflow inefficiencies while improving management techniques. Nurses understand the value of critical thinking and look for fellow nurses with critical thinking skills to upgrade their professional standards. Critical thinking can advance a nurse's career...

Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

01:16Deductive Reasoning

Deductive reasoning, or deduction, is the type of logic used in hypothesis-based science. In deductive reasoning, the pattern of thinking moves in the opposite direction as compared to inductive reasoning, which means that it uses a general principle or law to predict specific results. From those general principles, a scientist can deduce and predict the specific results that would be valid as long as the general principles are valid.
For example, a researcher can deduce specific predictions...

Inductive reasoning is a form of logical thinking that uses related observations to arrive at a general conclusion. It is uncertain and operates in degrees to which the conclusions are credible. As such, inductive arguments can be weak or strong, rather than valid or invalid, and conclusions can be used to formulate testable, falsifiable hypotheses.
Inductive reasoning is common in descriptive science. A life scientist makes observations and records them. This data can be qualitative or...
