[Teaching clinical decision making in Trondheim].
In the new medical curriculum at the University of Trondheim the preliminary teaching in clinical epidemiology is organized as a series of courses held in the third and fourth year. The objective is to develop skills in clinical appraisal based on scientific knowledge. A workbook and answers to exercises are provided for each course. The workbooks contain short introductions to important clinical epidemiological principles, as well as clinical problems which the students try to solve. The students' activities vary from reading to working with exercises and discussing the various topics. The courses give the students the opportunity to practice their newly acquired knowledge and to apply it to their clinical thinking.
