title: A response to the ACME-TRI report: the Dalhousie problem-based learning curriculum.
abstract: With the class of 1996, Dalhousie University Faculty of Medicine instituted a totally revised curriculum. The revisions transformed an entirely traditional curriculum to a student-centred curriculum, which is based on learning in context, and incorporates a problem-based approach to the entire curriculum. This paper describes our experience in the actual implementation of our revised curriculum, in the context of the Association of American Medical Colleges Assessing Change in Medical Education--The Road to Implementation (ACME-TRI) Report.
