[Group learning in medical education].
The implementation of group learning in medical education puts special demands on the participants, but also offers pedagogical benefits, which may be conductive to the efficient learning of facts, skills and attitudes. The group makes it possible to verify or modify the learned material, which is an important part of preparing for a career as a doctor. Students develop a dependence on others when solving problems in groups, whereas as clinicians they are often alone when confronted with problems demanding quick decisions. In this article we discuss some of the pedagogical principles involved in group learning and make suggestions on how to apply them to learning based on problem solving and other forms of group learning in the medical curriculum.
