Dr. Muhamed T. Osman , Dr. Methil Kannan Kutty
Abstract :
Hyid integrated curriculum (HIC) is a pathway of teaching aims to innovate without sacrificing the best of the old, and to balance the latest developments in medical science with the age-old values of healing. From 2010, onwards, the curriculum in Faculty of Medicine, Universiti Teknologi MARA Malaysia (UiTM), was modified to a HIC to accommodate a variety of learning styles and incorporates a range of carefully planned teaching strategies to get the objective of the integration of all pedagogical elements around a core of student-directed learning including learning of pathology. Pathology teaching now is being directed to the teaching of clinico-pathological correlation with the mechanisms of disease. Exposure of clinical years students (3rd, 4th, and 5th years), to pathology museum has been initiated, and students have given a back seat to pathology, in order to invigorate and inspire them to revisit their pathology knowledge.
