Problem-Based Learning (PBL) has become an integral component of medical education curricula in the last few decades. This approach to learning takes advantage of clinical cases in a pedagogical manner that promotes students’ responsibility towards their own learning and provokes their analytical thinking skills as well as maximizing the level of effective participation in groups.

At McGraw Hill we offer diverse resources in our platforms that strongly support educators, especially during the case creation stage, as well as help students to solve the case problem.
