Clinical Science I

The curriculum in the Department of Physical Therapy is based on the Problem-Based Learning philosophy of learning. The Doctor of Physical Therapy program utilizes an integrated approach in which all learning is driven by the patient/client cases.  The core of this type of learning is the tutorial process.  In this online course, the theoretical basis of this style of learning, including the assumptions that underlie the process, will be investigated.  The process and the roles that individuals take in professional discussion will be explained.  Group dynamics will also be discussed.
