ABSTRACT Although many recent studies have discussed specific issues related to problem-based learning in medical education, a comprehensive review of the literature on the consequences of its use and the outcomes of curriculum based on problem- based learning have not been accurately looked at. Furthermore, there is no available review that critically evaluates challenges and barriers to the implementation of problem-based learning curriculum in medical schools. The purpose of this part is to highlight the major challenges and barriers reported during curriculum preparation and implementation and to critically evaluate the consequences of problem-based learning introduction and its educational outcomes.

  • Nursing Conference October 23-25, 2019 | Rome, Italy
    Samy A Azer, Madridge J Nurs. 2019 DOI: dx.doi.org/10.18689/2638-1605.a4.002 5th International Nursing Conference October 23-25, 2019 | Rome, Italy What Makes A Scholarly Leader? Samy A Azer King Saud University, Saudi Arabia ith the changes to curricula and the changes introduced to the profession, one might wonder what constitutes Wscholarship in nursing education. Scholarship in nursing education is neither about completing a degree in health profession education nor is it about demonstrating excellence in teaching. Instead, a scholarship is a continuum of progressive achievements. Productivity in scholarship means the generation of new knowledge and the advancement of practices in the profession. The work environment is vital for enhancing scholars’ skills, engagement and longevity. Organizational culture is essential for cultivating scholarship and the development of leadership. In this keynote lecture, I will attempt to define what is meant by scholarship and identify measures by which one can demonstrate scholarly achievements. While the scope of scholarship at one time focused on teaching and research, this model has been expanded to include new domains. Contribution to educational scholarship has to be public, available for critical review and accessible for other scholars. In this keynote lecture, I will redefine scholarship, discuss domains contributing to scholarship and explore emerging challenges facing scholars and scholarly work in health professions including nursing. Biography Professor Samy Azer is an Australian physician and medical academic and educator. He was honoured to contribute to medical education in several countries. He graduated with a Bachelor in Medicine and Surgery and completed his training in gastroenterology and hepatology in the 80s.

Such demand, particularly the latter, may necessitate taking a new look at the way we review nursing curricula. Intended outcomes: Participants will be presented a new model for curriculum review with particular emphasis on what the needs of the workplace are and the profession and how these needs should comprise the framework of the curriculum. Discussion: The model for curriculum review aims at reversing the traditional components of curriculum namely: knowledge, skills and behaviour to focus on three key values (behaviours) namely patient-centred approaches, professionalism and becoming a role model, and accommodating the needs of the community. The model can be represented by a 3D pyramid with these values forming the base of the pyramid. Professionalism is in the centre of the base and goes across the pyramid up to the top. Other components related to the three edges connecting the base with the top are: patient safety, engaging patient and family members in management and patient education, and enhancing skills in team work and communication skills. Throughout the model, knowledge should be learnt innovatively that aims mainly at clinical applications and translation of knowledge in day-to-day practices.
