ABSTRACT
In 1994, a basic diagnosis training course was introduced for 2nd-year medical students at Jichi Medical School (JMS) to teach basic interview and physical examination skills with an emphasis on diagnostic processes and principles. In planning and preparing the course, instructors at JMS frequently held discussions to determine learning objectives and activities. We used a comprehensive manual for small-group teaching to standardize lectures as much as possible. In all sessions of the basic physical examination, students were taught in small groups. We also constructed original models to teach palpation and percussion. These models allowed students to participate actively and helped them understand the principles, skills, and findings of palpation and percussion. Instructors at JMS concluded that the models were useful training tools.
