Chen, Hui; Kelly, Michelle; Hayes, Carolyn; van Reyk, David; Herok, George – Advances in Physiology Education, 2016
Teaching of pathophysiology concepts is a core feature in health professional programs, but it can be challenging in undergraduate medical/biomedical science education, which is often highly theoretical when delivered by lectures and pen-and-paper tutorials. Authentic case studies allow students to apply their theoretical knowledge but still…
