Case Based Learning Teaching Methodology in Undergraduate Health Sciences

Student Perceptions to Teaching Undergraduate Anatomy in Health Sciences

Anatomy and physiology teaching has undergone significant changes to keep up with advances in technology and to cater for a wide array of student specific learning approaches. This paper examines perceptions towards a variety of teaching instruments, techniques, and innovations used in the delivery and teaching of anatomy and physiology for health science students, and asks whether active learn...

Teaching and Learning Confounding in the Health Sciences

In order to read or publish in the medical research literature, students in the health sciences need a thorough understanding of confounding. However, research shows that confounding may be poorly understood by some students even after two courses in biostatistics at the graduate level. We introduce two problem-based guided examples to increase both the breadth and depth of students’ understand...

Undergraduate Public Health Capstone Course: Teaching Evidence-Based Public Health

The University at Albany School of Public Health has offered a Bachelor of Science in Public Health (BSPH) degree for the past 7 years. The final requirement of the BSPH degree is a capstone evidence-based public health class designed to culminate the degree program. This capstone course is framed by identifying a public health problem and creating a literature review based on this problem. The...

Case-based reasoning in the health sciences

Operational support assists users while process instances are being executed, by making predictions about the instance completion, or recommending suitable actions, resources or routing decisions, on the basis of the already completed process traces. Operational support can be particularly useful is the case of medical processes, where a given process instance execution may differ from the indi...
