Final Triple Jump Exercise
The final triple jump exercise lasted one day. At nine in the morning, each tutorial group was presented with a problem scenario along with medical images and pathology specimens. For some of the stations, students were asked to use a monitoring device to obtain physiological information from a simulated patient. The patient was trained to assess whether the investigation was carried out in a competent way that would produce results. When the students were successful in obtaining the normal information from the simulated patient, they were provided with the results of that study from the patient in the scenario.
When the students received the case, they discussed it among themselves and devised a set of issues similar to those they would provide during the clinical reasoning exercises. In the case of the final triple jump, there were many aspects of the case that lead to several reasoning processes.
For example, using the cardiovascular case above, the student might explore such areas as hypertension, serum fat levels, and body weight. Each of these would represent reasoning steps or issues to be explored.
If students had a general understanding of the problem, they were allowed to leave to do further research to clarify the issues, or see new possibilities and refine their strategy for dealing with the problem. In the event that they had serious errors in reasoning, they would have been redirected at this point.
There was no restriction on resources and students were encouraged to do anything that they wished.
A final summary of the problem was submitted electronically by five in the afternoon on LearnLink.
This case was graded independently by three individuals and an average of these three marks was assigned to the student for the case (McKeachie, 2002).
