Abstract
The deficiencies perceived in traditionalmethods of teaching and learning have led to moves to develop and implement more effective methods appropriate to a given situation.1 One such method is problem-based learning (PBL), which is more active and participatoryin nature.2PBL is an innovative instructional strategy was first introduced at McMaster University, Canada in 1969 as an instructionalmedium and since then slowly and gradually is adapted by most of the institution around the world. PBL philosophyis congruent with modern principles of learning. It encourages self directed learning, addresses many theories of learning like information processing theory, collaborative and social learning theory. It discourages memorization and build up critical thinking and problem solving skills in learners.3 It not only helps students to construct their knowledge but also fosters attitudes and ethics, researchskills and attributes prerequisite of team work and leadership.4,5There are conflicting results of literaturereviews about the performance of students of two curricula but general conclusion is that there is no difference in term of knowledge acquisition but studentsof PBL group have demonstrated better clinical performance and knowledgeapplication skills6 which denotes that although there are many benefits of PBL but expectation should not be kept very high.The philosophy of PBL does not believe in spoon feeding or information relay from the tutor rather tutor is expectedto act as facilitator. Function of the PBL tutor is to raise students’ levels of thinking to a cognitive or higher cognitive level.7 In PBL real life scenario with structuredlearning objectives is introduced to the students. Tutor job is to monitor the process of knowledge construction by the students and to keep the students on their learning track by encouraging brain storming, reflective questioning and not by letting out the information to achieve those learning objectives.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
