Facts on 1st Workshop

• Workshop Material All were in English.

Differences with Japan Workshop

• Free of charge in registration
• No foreign participants
• Participants were selected by the deans of
  medical colleges and academic socieities.
• All Participants were MD professors.

10
The 2nd Korea P-drug Workshop
11
The 2nd Korea P-drug Workshop

• Thirty three medical professors from 19
  universities.
• Similar program to the 1st workshop
• Difference with 1st workshop
• All facilitators were from the 1st workshop
  participants, domestic university professors.
• Korean character version cases were provided,
  which were developed on May 2001.

P-drug for Undergraduate
13
P-drug for Undergraduates

• Seoul National University
• PBL module for 2nd year students. 2002-05, 3-days
  course
• Korean version, consulted to endocrinologist to
  remove any error or unrealistic situation
• Three cases DM, DM with hypertension
  with/without hypercholesterolemia
• Yonsei University
• Some professors use their own bedside teaching
  time for p-drug education.
• Korea University
• In developing of PBL module for undergraduates
• Many unreported activities

14
Future Plan

• Workshop for intra-university professors
• Prerequisite for resident, medical student
  training
• Workshop for primary physicians
• Especially become important with the separation
  of prescription from dispensing drugs
• Most easy
• Workshop for residents
• Most difficult due to lack of time and
  facilitators

15
Good Strategy for Propagation

• Work with persons in authority like deans
• Cooperation among several medical academic
  societies like society of pharmacology, society
  of internal medicine, society of medical
  education
• Free or little of charge Need sponsors
• Separation of PBL module developing from simple
  facilitatoring
• Module developing is much more difficult than the
  facilitating.
• Shorten the workshop course time
• Highly recommend intra-mural workshop
