Problem Based Learning .MCQs. (Paperback)

Problem-based learning- Multiple-choice questions(PBL, MCQ) have clinical relevance. They stimulate real-world applied scenarios. They require critical thinking and decision skills similar to those needed in actual patient care. In the world of normal periodontium, we designed questions to be applicable. They allow students or clinicians to apply their knowledge to practical situations they might encounter in practice. They integrate knowledge in the context of anatomy, histology, and physiology. On the other hand, they force learners to prioritize actions. They help learners apply the guidance for assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. They effectively assess and bridge the gap between theory and practice when applied. This book is the first part of a series that addresses this issue. Keywords: Problem-based learning, Multiple-choice questions, Normal periodontium
