Abstract
This study has two aims:(a) to address the main effects of problem-based learning on two categories of outcomes: knowledge and skills; and (b) to address potential factors of the effect of problem-based learning. For these purposes, the students in a problembased curriculum with those in a conventional instructional curriculum were compared the results, when the two curricula were applied. Analyses indicate that students in the PBLcurriculum performed at least as well as, in some instances better than their counterparts in the conventional curriculum. Students in the PBL curriculum, a studentdirected curriculum, were not disadvantaged. Of note is their strong practical (application) performance. Arguably the findings of this experimental study hold important implications for an educational programme and for effective pedagogic practice.
