ABSTRACT

Holistic approach. Problem-based learning provides problem-solving experiences…learning is enhanced in an environment that is conducive to the free exchange of questions and ideas and one in which the uniqueness of each learner is valued. This is why peer/self evaluation is important. Through problem-based learning the learner is able to enhance their knowledge/skill individually in order to function effectively as a nurse when facing different situations and problems as well as have the ability to work with other team members. Responsibility of the faculty is to facilitate an optimal learning environment.
