First have a look at the curriculum structure of the Faculty of medicine and then zoom in on the course outline. An example of a problem within this course you can find in assignment 'The problem as a starting point'. You can find more examples of PBL based course outlines relevant for your own discipline on the Internet (see e.g. some of the internet links below).

Discuss the problem description given above in your team. Brainstorm about what you know already, and what you do not yet understand about course design. 
2. Generate questions that need further study. 
3. When you have done this, ask one team member to submit a document with your team's list of study questions using the 'Start a submission' button below. ]]> 2017-11-07 14:23:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jens_thimm/ke03rklj7tcq/wish/204355075 jens_thimm https://padlet.com/jens_thimm/ke03rklj7tcq/wish/204355076 4. Study the materials individually. Watch the videos, look at the examples of course outlines, consult the booklet about course construction, and the other resources given. There is a longer list of open and licensed resources in the bibliography. 
5. Look for other relevant materials about course design in your own collection or on the Internet. Try to find resources about PBL course-construction which fit your disciplinary background. 
6. Share your resources with your team (in the team space) and with all participants (on Discussions).
7. Design or redesign a course outline and try to apply principles of problem based learning in your course design (individually, in pairs or as a team).]]> 2017-11-07 14:23:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jens_thimm/ke03rklj7tcq/wish/204355076 jens_thimm https://padlet.com/jens_thimm/ke03rklj7tcq/wish/204355079 Web lecture

The curriculum had been innovated and the curriculum committee asked me to design a unit outline. To be able to do so, I had to collaborate with other teachers from various disciplines. I wondered what a problem-based course outline should look like and which steps would be involved in the design process. I consulted existing course outlines to become inspired. The new course outline was to be consistent with the principles behind Problem-Based Learning (PBL). It is a real challenge to design a course outline with a group of teachers from various disciplines." ]]> 2017-11-07 14:23:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jens_thimm/ke03rklj7tcq/wish/204355081 https://padlet.com/jens_thimm/ke03rklj7tcq/wish/205218792 - coordination/collaboration with teachers from different fields and with different backgrounds

- it seems important that all teachers involved are familiar with the principles of PBL
- in the course, problems should be connected and build on each other
- problems increase in complexity 

Questions:
- how start a PBL-course when most of the other courses at the unit use different approaches
- how many problems are usually used in a PBL-course

Another  challenge in planning a course outline, is that one need to plan well ahead due to administrative demands.. but his is not impossible.

- analogy caterpillar: 7 wheels/circles (7 tasks) that are constantly moving and rolling faster and faster with more obtained knowledge. Together they "turn"/move into one direction and are dependent on each other. The first task is still active when proceeding (reactivated by practicals, important prior knowledge etc.)]]> 2017-11-13 12:26:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jens_thimm/ke03rklj7tcq/wish/206189892 klillevoll https://padlet.com/jens_thimm/ke03rklj7tcq/wish/207611338 Courses should be organized into blocks over several weeks. Those who are planning the blocks should also be teaching in the course, and vice versa. Preferably, two students partake in the planning; one from the upcoming class, and one from the class currently in the course.

I found Snellen-Balendong & Dolmans useful in how to make a comprehensive framework for a block, and how it is related to other courses (e.g. previous courses). Learning goals may be given on an overall level by educational plans, but may not be all that detailed. Course curricula must include specific learning objectives.  

Willis (2002) suggest organising the course into modules, (perhaps that's another word for blocks? ) with PBL assignments for each module. Later modules draw on elements for previous modules. She suggests 50 % of in class time to be devoted to PBL, otherwise lectures and discussion. 50 % of final grade relies on PBL assignments, 30 % from multiple choice exams, and 20 % on student presentation and demonstration. However, I find basing individual assessment on PBL group assignments highly questionable..]]> 2017-11-16 11:56:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jens_thimm/ke03rklj7tcq/wish/207611338
