Developing curriculum for independent learning.
This article describes the evolution of a baccalaureate degree program in radiography designed to develop students' critical thinking and analytical abilities. The curriculum for the program was developed after a review of the literature on student centered learning and encouraging results from a study that showed students responded positively to a problem-solving learning approach. The author describes how the baccalaureate program was implemented and how its student-centered approach gives students the freedom to learn. The author also describes how the new program has affected the attitudes and actions of the students and faculty at the institution.
