| description | Mohammed Khalid Aslami, Amir-Humza Tahir Suleman, Owais Ali Shah Faculty of Medicine, St George’s Hospital Medical School, London, UKWe read the article by Yadav et al1 with great interest which highlighted the positive perception of medical students toward problem-based learning (PBL). Surprisingly, however, over half of the participants deemed PBL as a time-consuming teaching method. This is supported by a study wherein 32.9% of respondents detailed PBL to be time inefficient, highlighting potential concerns regarding its ability to adequately meet learning outcomes.2 As penultimate year medical students studying a curriculum utilizing PBL, we would like to use our experience to propose improvements that can be made to PBL teaching.View the original paper by Yadav and colleagues |
