Hello Karen
We are just at the beginning of our work. Thank you for your
help. I' lucky about your proposition to pass my message to Cathy Rowan.
At the moment I'm looking for literature about PBL in context to
widwifery education. I have found two studies concerning your eduational
programm (Thomas GB, Ouant VM, Cooke P 1998 The development of a
problem-based curriculum in midwifery Midwivery 14:261-265 / Evaluation
of a problem-based curriculum in midwifery Mc Court Ch, Thomas BG 2001
Evaluation of a problem-Based currriculum in midwifery Midwifery
17:323-331). Are there more studies?
I'd like to know more about the structure of the programme
developed by your school.
Regards
Lisa

Hello Lisa
You are lucky! We (Faculty of Health at Thames Valley
University) have a PBL/EBL midwifery programme that implements it across
the whole programme and have extensive evaluation and years of
implementation. I am passing this onto Cathy Rowan in the midwifery
team, as I am sure she can exchange ideas as one of the leads in this
area. Have you thought about a trip over?
Regards
Karen

Subject: PBL-curriculum for midwives: How to design a
curriculum?
I'm a lecturer for midwifery education at Berne in Switzerland.
We are engaged in developing an new PBL-curriculum. The
intention is to adopt a PBL approach to the whole curriculum. Future
students must succeed at an undergraduate level (bachelor) with 180
ECTS. The progamme is conceptualized as a direct entery midwivery
training (lasts tree years at a fulltime level).
Who is experienced in designing a problem-based curriculum for
midwives?
My questions are the following:
How to apply the educational principles of PBL to the
curriculum?
How to structure the curriculum: What structure ist the best for
a PBL- curriculum? What is the ideal length of a unit/cycle? How to
arrange "theoritical" units in relation to practical units (clinical
placement?
What are the difficulties in designing a PBL-curriculum?
Tips and tricks for the design of a PBL-curriculum?
I'm interessed in an exchance.
Greatings
