An Attempt to Understand the Different Levels of Harden’s Ladder
Abstract
The new CBME curriculum differs from the older one by being more learner and patient centric, outcome based, aligned & integrated, and emphasis on skill development, attitudes, ethics & communication. The affective domain which was implicit in the curriculum, is now to be taught explicitly. Newer additions like foundation course, early clinical exposure and self-directed learning are introduced. The curriculum implementation support programme is making tremendous efforts in inculcating the new curriculum into day-to-day teaching. The curriculum committee has a huge task to train the faculty in their respective colleges for a smooth transition. Hence, a thorough understanding of the new curriculum by these members is very essential. Keywords: Harden’s ladder, Integration
