Learning Issues

 Learning Issues are used to review important aspects of a variety of common disease states and drug therapy in the ambulatory care setting.  You will be required to download a set of learning issues once or twice a month on your disease state of choice.  Your task will be to prepare answers for the learning issues then present them in group setting in a discussion format.  You will not be required to create a PowerPoint or handout, but it might be in your best interest to prepare something to all you to discuss the materials  rather than lecture the materials.
