What is a curriculum?
•The curriculum is the set of courses and their content offered at a school or university with which students will interact for the purpose of achieving identified educational outcomes.
•The curriculum is the set of instructional strategies teachers plan to use.
![Page 5: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What is a curriculum?
•A curriculum is about what should happen in a teaching program – about the intension of the teachers and about the way they make this happen.
•The curriculum in fact is What the student learns How the student learns (strategy/s &
Learning/teaching tools) How the student assessed The learning environment Learning outcomes

Types of CurriculaThe Concurrent Curricula
•The official curriculum: (The written curriculum),
•The Operational Curriculum,•Hidden Curriculum
is a side effect of an education, which are learned but not openly intended such as the transmission of values, and beliefs conveyed in the classroom and the social environment.

Different curricular models•Outcome-Based Education (OBE)- What
sort of doctor is needed?
philosophy that focuses on measuring student performance, which are called outcomes. Students demonstrate that they have learned the required skills and content
OBE contrasts with traditional education which primarily focuses on the resources that are available to the student, which are called inputs.

Different curricular models
•Problem-Based Learning (PBL)is a student-centered education in which
students learn about a subject in context of complex, many-sided & realistic problems
The goals of PBL are to help students: develop flexible knowledge, effective problem solving skills, self-directed learning (SDL), effective collaboration skills & intrinsic motivation
![Page 9: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Different curricular models•Problem-Based Learning (PBL)
Working in groups, students identify what they already know, what
they need to know, & how & where to access new information that may lead to resolution of the problem.
The role of the instructor is facilitator who provides appropriate support, modeling of the process, & monitoring the learning
![Page 10: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Different curricular models
•Task-Based Learning:
The primary focus of classroom activity is the task and information the students have, is the instrument which the students use to complete it.
![Page 11: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Different curricular models
•Core & Student selection Components•An Integrated system-based approach.•Community-Based Education
learners are encouraged to actively apply concepts & information, skills or attitudes to local situations. E.g. students would not just study pollution, but would be encouraged & provided with the opportunity to observe, examine and hopefully reverse pollution of pond water at local levels through a variety of actions.
![Page 12: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Basic curricular structures
•The discrete (=separate, isolated) curriculum,
•The linear curriculum,•The pyramidal structure, AND•The spiral curriculum.
Curriculum in which students repeat the study of a subject at different grade levels, each time at a higher level of difficulty and in greater depth.
![Page 13: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Educational strategies
•Six educational strategies by Prof Harden.•Each strategy can be represented as a
spectrum or continuum: Student-centered/teacher-centered Problem-based/information-gathering Integrated/discipline-based Community-based/hospital-based Elective/uniform Systematic/apprenticeship (internship)-based
![Page 14: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SPICES Model of Educational Strategies
•Student centered “What the student learn rather than what is taught"
• Teacher centered
• Problem-based
• Information-oriented
• Integrated or Inter-professional Integration throughout the
curriculum
• Subject or Discipline-based
• Community-based Less emphasis on
hospital-based programs
• Hospital-based
Hospital-based
![Page 15: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
SPICES Model of Educational Strategies
• Elective-driven According to student needs,
learning & teaching adjusted to the needs of students
• Uniform
• Systematic To ensure that all
students have had comparable learning experience
• apprenticeship (internship)-based
i.e Opportunistic (=resourceful)

Some background onStudents learning
![Page 17: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Principles of Adult learning?The need to know — adult learners need to know why they need to learn something before undertaking to learn it
Learner self-concept — need to be responsible for their own decisions
Role of learners' experience — have a variety of experiences of life - the richest resource for learning
Readiness to learn — are ready to learn those things they need to know in order to cope effectively with life situations
Orientation to learning — are motivated to learn to the extent that they perceive (=see, notice) that it will help them perform tasks they confront (challenge) in their life situations.

Abraham Flexner Recommendations: •Under Flexner’s influence, medical
curricula around the world came to be structured into:
▫Preclinical medicine: learned in lecture theatres, teaching laboratories, dissecting rooms, and librarie
▫Clinical medicine: learned in wards and operating theatres of university tertiary hospitals

•In the late twentieth century, national bodies began to respond to the wind of change to meet patients’ needs to be achieved through curriculum integration.

•Disciplines should integrate their contributions into a thematic, probably systems-based curriculum
![Page 22: Integration in Medical Education](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c32550346895d90b55e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
•Integration was one of the key criteria for assessing the degree of innovation in a medical curriculum in the SPICES curriculum model (Harden, 1984).

Learn like doctor & think like doctor
…because human beings are complex organisms whose discrete (=separate) systems are linked intricately (=complicatedly) and elaborately within the body and modified profoundly (=greatly) by external influences, we need to teach in ways that reflect this complexity and that stimulate students to synthesize information across disciplines.

Learn like doctor & think like doctor
A sick patient does not represent a biochemistryproblem, an anatomy problem, a geneticsproblem, or an immunology problem; rather,each person is the product of myriad (=numerous) molecular, cellular, genetic, environmental, and social influences that interact in complex ways to determine health and disease.

Integration: a definition

The Rationale (=basis,foundation)
• Curriculum organization denotes (=means) a systematic arrangement of curriculum elements.It will results in a more relevant, meaningful,
and student centered curriculum.
• Integration makes the learning contexts close to the context in which the information is to be retrieved (=recovered, regained). E.g. integrated learning within integrated context such as primary care medicine.

Summary
Learning take place better if it is contextual.
Overcrowding information could be solved by integration.
Integration is the necessity & not the luxury.
This is the relatively new trend which has been applied in medical education every where.
