How to build …….. • …..… a mind? • What are the raw materials? • What are the tools? • What types of people?
How to build …….. a medical mindA MEDED perspective • Materials? • Content resources (hard copy or electronic) • Tools? • Courses • Organization and sequencing of content • Instructional methods • People? • Content experts
How to build …….. a medical mindA MEDED perspective • Curricular models guide institutions in how to utilize content, courses and experts in the construction of medical minds • Discipline-based (1870’s – current) • Systems-based (1950’s – current) • PBL (1970’s – current) • Presentation (1990’s – current) • Papa FJ, Harasym PH.

How to build a Medical Mind:An Evolving Learning Sciences Perspective • The development of competence depends upon… • The construction of problem- and task-specific knowledge bases • The construction of problem- and task-specific knowledge bases begins with the acquisition of declarative knowledge followed by its progressive transformation into procedural knowledge • The progressive development of problem- and task-specific procedural knowledge requires multiple application opportunities, and, focused instructional guidance
How to build a Medical Mind:An Evolving Learning Sciences Perspective • Principles used to construct a new curricular model (A Problem and Task-focused, Application-oriented curriculum - PTAC) • Course design elements • Organize and teach course content within the context of clinical problems • Sequence problem-focused, instructional activities in a manner that supports the progressive development of knowledge-based competencies (Bloom’s taxonomy) • Acquisition of declarative knowledge • Comprehension (transformation into procedural knowledge) • Application (practice opportunities sufficient to develop competence) • A problem and task-focused, application-oriented curriculum: Rationale, learning sciences framework and outcomes.

Computer Assisted Tools for building a medical mind • KBIT (Knowledge Based Inference Tool) • Predicated upon three principles • Acquire problem and task (DDX) specific declarative knowledge • Transform declarative knowledge into procedural knowledge • Multiple problem and task-focused practice opportunities under (expert/AI) guidance • Papa FJ, Oglesby MW, Aldrich DG, Schaller F, Cipher DJ.
