Problem Based Learning (PBL) Discussions

Participants in the Problem Based Learning sessions will be able to download the objectives, case for review, questions, references, and a discussion for their PBL Discussion from the SCA website (www.scahq.org) prior to the meeting. Participants are encouraged to review the references prior to the session, in preparation for discussion of the case. Each table is limited to (15) participants and two faculty members, to allow for small group interaction, discussion, and exchange of ideas. Separate registration required on page 20.
