Lecture Theatre

Traditional British undergraduate medical education has evolved with the development of medicine as a profession. However, despite dramatic progress in the provision of healthcare, the medical curriculum has remained mostly unchanged until recently. Conventional medical courses rely on the teacher-centred didactic setting of a lecture theatre to transmit vast quantities of information. This one-way traffic of facts is divided initially into the preclinical basic sciences and later into the medical specialties, with relatively little horizontal or vertical integration. Much of the assessment of students relies on their reproducing information as accurately as possible. This traditional format has been widely criticised (Lowry, 1992).
