Employing students’ evaluations and tutors’ perceptions to evaluate a faculty development program on problem-based learning at the Faculty of Medicine, King Abdulaziz University

Faculty development programs are crucial for promoting continuous learning, enhancing teaching effectiveness, and encouraging professional growth among medical educators. Problem-based learning was introduced as a teaching strategy in our Faculty of Medicine in 2007. Thereafter, several rounds of a faculty development program were conducted to help teachers recognize their role as facilitators and assess areas for improvement.
