Opinions of Tutors and Students about Effectiveness of PBL in Dokuz Eylul University School of Medicine.

DISCUSSION: According to the results of this study, tutors and students opinions about PBL outcomes were similar to those previously reported in the literature. Both groups had positive opinions about PBL's effectiveness. As has been reported in other studies, tutors and students gave the lowest ratings to the area of gaining basic science knowledge. However, the ratings of basic science tutors were higher than those of clinical science tutors in this area. This may be due to preexisting beliefs of clinical science tutors regarding the effectiveness of PBL for teaching factual basic science knowledge. PMID: 28253166 [PubMed]
