| Description | The paper focuses on the description of the research within the activities designed and realized in an extensive project aimed at training future non-physician health workers. Within the implementation period of the project, which is February 2010 - June 2012, a number of logically interconnected activities have been carried out. In the current period, the research of teaching materials, namely the suitability of tests and study texts, is being finalized and piloted. In this paper, special attention will be paid to a specific part - the research and preparation of case studies which will enable students to use their theoretical knowledge in solving problem situations (PBL). In particular, researching methodological and didactic requirements needed for the preparation of valid case studies will be presented, as well as examples of specific case studies and educational use of medical image data. The paper also discusses and summarizes the benefits and potential risks of using problem-based learning through case studies. |
