S127: How to Solve Cases like a Doctor in Splash Fall 2015 (Nov. 01, 2015)
Hi SPLASH attendees, My name is Ben. As a first year medical student I was exposed to this peer based learning format. I found it tremendously fun and rewarding. I wanted to share this with you: In this session, you are taking on the role of doctors taking on an important and unusual patient case. You will each be assigned to a specific task and you will use any background knowledge you have, resources on the internet, and the knowledge of your peers to diagnose the patient's problems. Good luck!
