Enhancing “Conceptual Teaching/Learning” in a Concept-Based Curriculum

Conceptual teaching is essential to conceptual learning. To safeguard the authenticity and enhance a multischool concept-based curriculum, a concept analysis diagram was created for each curriculum concept. This tool provides a succinct “conceptual approach” to understanding the correlation and interrelatedness among concepts and between patients. It fosters “conceptual thinking” rather than rote memory or use of the medical model. The concept analysis diagram transposes theory to practice and concepts to patient care.
