Educators are increasingly seeking ways to integrate basic and clinical sciences throughout undergraduate medical education, as medical education is moving away from the traditional two years of preclinical education followed by two years of clinical clerkships. One way of doing this is to use clinical cases that integrate basic and clinical sciences in several curricular formats that use team-based learning (TBL), case-based learning (CBL) or problem-based learning (PBL) with or without lectures. The outcomes of these curricular modalities will depend on how actively students engage and learn using clinical cases. Therefore, the quality of the clinical cases, clarity of learning objectives, and the learning environment created by the cases are important components in all of the modalities mentioned above. The purpose of our workshop is to provide educators and administrators with the foundations to incorporate these modalities into their curriculum.
