[Nursing education innovations].
Problem-Based Learning is a pedagogical method which has already been adopted by a large number of educational programs for health professionals, including nurses. Problem-Based Learning tends to combine learning based on problems, in small groups and is student-centered. The disadvantages of a traditional pedagogical program for students have been established for many years now. Even though the implementation of Problem-Based Learning has corrected many of those problems which occur through use of traditional methods, this new method does present some risky situations which require mechanisms to prevent and correct them.
