Educational Strategies Outcome-Based Education: 

It is a broad statement of what a learner is expected to know, understand and be able  to do at the end of a  period of learning and how that learning is to be  demonstrated.  A learning outcome broadly allow flexibility and customization and are eminently applicable in defining  the overall curriculum outcomes.  Five main outcomes and fifty nine competences have been identified for the graduates

Educational Strategies  action Plans• Every Module include introduction, learning outcomes,  teaching and learning activities, assessment plan,  examples of cases, and resource materials. • Integration  in multi-dimensional in nature. • The curriculum will have a spiral design.• College will utilize non-traditional sources such as  Public Health Centers and Community-based Hospitals  as clinical teaching sites. • The program will emphasize on prevention, continuum  between health and disease state, and patient- centered care.   

 

Spiral Approach to the Curriculum: Introductory concepts, basic foundational knowledge and skills will be taught in early years and 

revisited in a planned manner in later years. Concepts will be presented in progressively more challenging manner with increasing but 

appropriate level of complexity. The ‘spiral curriculum’ of ‘Diabetes’  Throughout the course of study, the  concept of 

diabetes will be spirally revisited. Sequentially, learn about the  impact of the disease, pathophysiology, and connection between the  pathophysiology and clinical presentation and investigation, and an approach  to management.  

It is expected that the students will integrate ethical, economical, and socio- cultural considerations into the holistic management of the condition.
