Comparative Study of Problem-Based Learning and Traditional Teaching Methods on Medical Students’ Outcomes in Pediatrics Clerkships
PBL significantly enhanced clinical skills in pediatric clerkships, particularly in clinical reasoning, diagnosis, and communication. Although both teaching methods supported theoretical learning equally, PBL fostered greater student engagement and deeper learning, suggesting that it could be a valuable model for future medical education.
