Abstract:
Tutorials were introduced to the 1st-year curriculum of Kanazawa Medical University in 1994. The aim of this educational program was to help our students develop, (1) a scientific way of thinking, (2) the ability to identify and solve problems, (3) a positive attitude toward study, and (4) the ability to make logical presentations. The tutorials succeeded in teaching our students methods of self-learning and group-learning. Furthermore, results of the evaluation of each student by this tutorial was comparable with those of the term-end evaluation, which is supposed to reflect the general ability of students.
