Implementing Problem-Based Learning into Professional and Dental Education.

Aldred, Susan E.; Aldred, Michael J.; Walsh, Laurence J.; Dick, Bob

Journal of Dental Education, v62 n9 p644-49 Sep 1998

Discusses issues associated with implementation of a new problem-based dental curriculum at the University of Queensland (Australia), focusing on costs and challenges of implementation based on a 1996 survey of staff involved. The origins and rationale of the new curriculum are examined, and both direct and indirect costs are explored, with attention given to processes rather than dollar amounts. (MSE)
