title: The use of examination content guidelines in teaching clinical microbiology.
abstract: The concept of using examination content guidelines as sources for curriculum content is presented, using the ASCP Board of Registry grids and a task list developed for HEW as a basis for proficiency examinations. The grid structure is related to Bloom's taxonomic levels, and a brief explanation of each level is included. A comparison of the grid structure and task list format is made, and specific examples of the use of each are offered.
