Abstract

Environmental medicine can be defined as the science and art of medicine applied to the interaction between environment and health. In support of the WHO Health for All strategy, the educational programmes encourage closer links between epidemiology, clinical practice and environmental protection, and utilize problem-based learning. For tuition, problem-management questionnaires are a worthwhile tool to assist student learning. Examples are given and a model answer for one of these is appended. Their development, use and evaluation are described. They can be readily prepared from different clinical and environmental problems, and they help to meet identified needs in community-oriented medical education.
