Estimated number of facilitated small groups

(Faculty for facilitated small group discussion will be a combination of teachers from departments allied with the course and also a group of small group facilitators hired by the Office of Medical Education. The Office of Medical Education will use this estimate to plan for staffing and scheduling of facilitated small group instruction time.)

Core cases to be used in facilitated small group sessions

Please describe the cases around which you will build learning in your course along with some topics/concepts that will be addressed by those cases.
