Using Faculty and Student Perceptions of Group Dynamics to Develop Recommendations for PBL Training.

Tipping, Jane; And Others

Academic Medicine, v70 n11 p1050-52 Nov 1995

A study investigated medical school faculty and student knowledge and perceptions of group dynamics in the context of problem-based learning (PBL). Observation of 27 first-year medical students and 3 faculty in University of Toronto medical school PBL groups revealed a generally low awareness of effective group dynamics. Comprehensive medical school training programs in this area are recommended. (Author/MSE)
