{ "pk": 33098, "title": "Problem-Based Learning: Development Of Knowledge And Reasoning Strategies", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Problem-based learning (PBL) reflects new conceptions of \nlearning that have grown out of theory and research in \ncognitive science. PBL has been used in medical schools to \nenhance the development of clinical reasoning skills and to \npromote the integration of basic biomedical sciences with \nclinical applications. In this study, the effect of PBL on the \ndevelopment of clinical reasoning strategies, use of scientific \nknowledge, and accuracy are examined on a causal \nexplanation task. Students in problem-based curricula were \ncompared with students in traditional medical curricula. The \nresults indicate that PBL plays a role in facilitating the \ndevelopment of expertise. In PBL, students learn through the \ntransfer of hypothesis-driven reasoning skills that result in \nmore coherent explanations. The PBL students are better able \nto apply their science knowledge than nonPBL students, \nleading to greater accuracy of hypotheses.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "17", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0h734551", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Cindy", "middle_name": "E.", "last_name": "Hmelo", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Georgia Institute of Technology", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1995-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/33098/galley/24159/download/" } ] }
