Full TextAbstract
The competency-based curriculum approach has received increasing attention in various disciplines in recent decades and it has become a dominant approach in many countries. We aimed to explore the lived experiences of medical professors and students about the movement from a discipline-based to competency-based curriculum. A qualitative method was used to through selecting participants via a purposeful sampling strategy. The study was conducted at a Medical School in Iran. The results of the research showed that, the development of competencies in the students has been abandoned and this is due to focus on the cognitive domain, isolated and appended curriculum, H-shaped curriculum. An Obese curriculum is introduced to describe such conditions.
