1. What is CBL? • Case Based Learning (CBL) is a form of small group learning, which incorporates: • Group discussion of case scenarios presenting a problem • Working and actively learning in groups • Integration of prior and newly acquired knowledge • Development and improvement of problem solving skills and critical thinking • Use of self-study to consolidate learning that occurred in groups
2. The Structure of CBL Case Based Learning (CBL) Tutorials take place in Phase 3, the first 15 weeks of Year 3 at the following venues: • The Lister Building at Glasgow Royal Infirmary • The Teaching and Learning Centre at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital • The Clinical Skills Suite within the Wolfson Medical School Building CBL is led by a clinical tutor and takes place in small groups of approximately 10 students. The focus of CBL is on a clinical case history, the format of which is identical to that used in clinical practice, and the investigations appropriate to that case. Clinical cases are compiled by the week leads and will be emailed out to all tutors one week in advance of their CBL Session.
3. The Role of the CBL Tutor • Prepare for each meeting by reading the materials compiled by the week leads. • Attend each session with your designated CBL group at the agreed time. • Complete the student attendance form for each meeting. • Highlight to the Medical School any students about whom you have academic or other concerns. • Work with the student group as a clinical teacher. • Facilitate, teach and guide students to reach an understanding of the material addressed. • At the end of CBL ensure the group reviews the learning objectives and make sure they have achieved them. • Provide formative feedback at the end of the session.
4. Before the CBL Session • Students:The learning objectives and the case(s) will be available prior to the session (students are not expected to study for it). • Students will have background information on the topic from Lectures delivered by specialists throughout the week. • The cases and additional resources will be available on Year 3 Moodle. • Tutor:One week prior to the session the CBL tutor will receive: • Tutor notes, which contain more detailed information about the case, with answers. • Additional resources (e.g. histology, imaging, lab results etc.) for presentation during the session will be available in advance.
5. During the CBL Session Students: • The student notes will provide the basic details of the case and raise questions to be discussed. • The students discuss the information provided, answer the questions and explore the progress of the case. Tutor: • Log onto the computer to access the relevant content and resources. • The format of the CBL session may vary, sometimes based mainly on notes, sometimes using a PowerPoint presentation etc. • The tutor guides the students through the case using the notes and the presentation (with histopathology, x-rays, ECGs etc.
