<jats:p> Problem-based learning (PBL) or enquiry-based learning (EBL) was recently introduced into the midwifery curriculum at the University of Plymouth in an attempt to help students to apply psychological theory to practice. An evaluation study was conducted to ascertain its effectiveness. Through questionnaires and focus groups involving students and lecturers it became clear that PBL/EBL had many advantages. Particularly positive outcomes included enhanced links between theory and practice and development of graduate skills. This paper provides a background to the PBL/EBL concept, discusses the study and explores some of the factors which may contribute to the development of a graduate practitioner who is fit for purpose. </jats:p> | |
