Description

A scripted 4-act CBL model that progressively releases key information with teacher-verified distractor cues. Act 1 focuses on problem framing and initial hypothesis generation; Act 2 on occupational history elicitation and laboratory cues; Act 3 on field investigation and exposure attribution; Act 4 on management and prevention decision-making.

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

  • Each act provides only the minimum information required for the current task, retaining other cues as to be elicited or verified

Constraints

  • The intervention's scope is bounded by exploratory reasoning and should not be regarded as a general clinical-reasoning enhancer

Target Learners

  • undergraduate medical students

Learning Goals

  • clinical reasoning, exposure assessment, and epidemiologic thinking in occupational medicine
