Abstract

Embedding case based learning into a pre-registration programme is crucial to being able to provide real life experiences for entry level practitioners. We have adopted an approach that embeds underpinning knowledge development and problem solving around the cases used to learn. Students enthusiasm for using real cases evaluates well supporting our curriculum pedagogy. Inorder to maximise these opportunities we are developing and using the cases throughout the course.
