PBL may be applied to facilitate learning of signs, symptoms and pathophysiology that are defined in the Japanese Model Core Curriculum for the undergraduate medical education. When signs, symptoms and pathophysiology are the learning objectives in the PBL, the learners may integrate the related problems to understand the basic mechanisms of the diseases. Whereas didactic lecture-based learning facilitates systematic understanding. Thus, construction of curriculum to accommodate the Model Core Curriculum with learning objectives of signs, symptoms and pathophysiology require through consideration for the characteristics of PBL as one educational modality in the medical education.
