Rationale for introducing PBL into the Rationale for introducing PBL into the undergraduate curriculaundergraduate curricula
The rationale for PBL lies in The rationale for PBL lies in its comparability with its comparability with modern educational modern educational principles. Its approach is principles. Its approach is based on principles of based on principles of adult education and self-adult education and self-directed learning.directed learning.
Principles of adult learning
Adults are motivated by learning that:
• Is perceived as relevant• Is based on, and builds on, their previous experiences• Is participatory and actively involves them• Is focused on problems• Is designed so that they can take responsibility for their own learning• Can be immediately applied in practice• Involves cycles of action and reflection• Is based on mutual trust and respect

Mary Smith, a 28-year-old office worker and part-time swimming instructor, comes to see her GP because of pain in her chest and shortness of breath. This has been a recurring problem in recent months and seems to be gradually worse. On the previous evening, while participating in a swimming gala, she became so short of breath that she found it difficult to walk.difficult to walk.
