What Is SCT?
A different approach to case-based learning
• Educational tool based on clinical scenarios to assess and evaluate clinical reasoning
• Similar to a case study
– Simulates clinical situations in which a physician must make decisions about diagnosis,
treatment or management
• Unlike a case study
– Emphasis is not on establishing a single “right answer”
– Examines multiple solutions/considerations required in complex and uncertain situations,
thereby exploring overall clinical reasoning process
