Medical Assessment via EBL
The integration of a new self-assessment function will capitalise on the MedLea Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), which provides online resources for electronic PBL casebooks in order to support EBL. The new function (MAEBL) will enable students to contribute to a sustainable, formative self-assessment resource as well as enhance their own understanding of the subject of study.

Conversion of an MSc Module in Physiological Measurements to EBL
This project will convert the conventionally taught 12 week 'Physiological Measurement's module into a Problem-Based Learning module. This module combines engineering knowledge and medical knowledge pertaining to vital sign monitoring; the latter part is similar to Nursing curriculum while the first part is akin to Electronic Engineering modules. It is intended that the final converted module will be of a multidisciplinary nature which could be effectively utilised by both Engineering and Nursing students as well as the MSc students targeted in this particular module. It is the intention to map the learning objectives (the existing curriculum) to an MCQ evaluation test and hence satisfy the requirement of curriculum coverage while at the same time ensuring that the learning process remains open ended.
