醫學教育

基於傳統醫學教育的缺失，越來越多的醫學院校開始利用問題為基礎學習法於醫學教育課程之中。快速變遷的醫療環境裡，問題為基礎學習法訓練過程使得學生能夠具備面對挑戰的能力，而學生對於資訊管理技能的需求將更為殷切。作為資訊資源提供者的圖書館，在處理各種形式的醫學資訊資源，尤其是網路上增長快速的電子資源時，所應扮演的角色將更具挑戰性，本文將以文獻分析法針對問題為基礎學習法的目標，電腦資料庫與網路醫學資訊資源的應用與圖書館的角色等問題作探討，期望對於醫學院校與醫學資訊專業有所助益。

A growing number of medical schools are adopting problem-based learning in response to criticisms of the conventional medical curriculum. In the changing healthcare environment, medical students are required to be equiped with basic knowledge, skills, and attitudes for the coming decade. This article focuses on the importance of information resources in the PBL(Problem-based learning) environment. The issues discussed here include the objectives of problem-based learning, the usage of medical databases, and the role of medical libraries. Some information management programs are also discussed as examples of ways of transmitting library and information skills.

過去幾十年來，各國醫學教育界廣泛的推動問題導向式學習(Problem-based Learning,簡稱PBL)。問題導向式學習的主要進行的方式在於透過一系列的問題，提供學生經驗的架框，並藉由解決實際環境中的問題，讓學生經由開放式的學習環境主動探索問題。新的科技的發展，尤其是網際網路所能提供的資訊廣度，更提供學生在問題導向式環境中新的學習機會。在問題導向式學習的環境中，圖書館所扮演的角色日益重要。如何幫助醫學專業的學生建立所需的資訊素養，讓他們能夠在PBL所提供之環境，進行彈性化、開放式，以及自導式的學習也成為醫學圖書館的要務之一。文中除了分析PBL的相關理論、實例之外，也提供了如何透過資訊素養的推廣落實PBL理念

Problem-based learning (PBL) has been widely implemented in medical education asan important pedagogical approach for the last decades. The PBL approach is intended tohelp the learner frame experience as a series of problems and skills to the solution of realproblems in the contexts of real practice. The advent of new technology, specially thewealth of information that can be accessed over the Internet, provides new opportunities oapply aproblem-based learning. As learning in medical schools moving towards Problembasedapproach, the role of library has become increasingly important. How to helpmedical professionals develop needed information literacy is essential to support learning inthe flexible, open, and self-directed learning environment offered by PBL. The paperReviews related theories and cases for PBL, and how information literacy can be integratedin PBL to enhance learning.
