Abstract:
We have used narrative approach to supplement the two usual methods of teaching biomedical ethics: the principlebased approach and the casuistic approach. Our experience suggested (1) although the learning of key principles is essential to medical ethics, the casuistic approach can be the more effective strategy than the principle-based approach for learning clinical moral reasoning and (2) that narrative approach can be the most effective learning strategy in humane medicine, especially in relativizing a student's moral views. By combining these three approaches, learning strategies in medical ethics can be refined.
