The virtual “hospital” in Minecraft supports lectures, seminars, and interactive challenges that assess reasoning, data analysis, research design, and inpatient management steps. Learning outcomes cover neuro/biology review, statistical reasoning, and clinical decision making across neurological and psychiatric conditions. Assessment includes two exams, virtual playbook progress, and participation.","Syllabus – Fall 2025  \nNSC 4v90.0H1: Experiential Medical Reasoning  \nMonday  \n1:00-2:15pm  \nFN 2.302  \nInstructor: Eric Kildebeck, MD, PhD  \nOffice: BSB 11.637 and Richardson IQHQ, Office \\#125  \nOffice hours: Monday – Thursday, scheduled by request to meet either on Teams or in my office.

An emphasis will be placed on the types of scientific reasoning expected throughout medical training, including MCAT problem-solving, USMLE clinical vignettes, and clinical patient management. Problems and scenarios will be presented in an interactive virtual hospital through Minecraft. A significant part of this course is virtual, and students are expected to participate fully in the virtual hospital challenges. Sessions include lectures, seminars from invited guest lecturers, and virtual hospital challenges.  \nCourse Content:  \nTaking care of patients as a physician requires foundational scientific knowledge to be applied in different ways, from basic recall of facts to scientific reasoning about experiments and data, to informing the best next steps in patient management. This course utilizes a virtual training hospital environment where students are challenged to demonstrate foundational knowledge in these different contexts while taking care of virtual patients. We will begin with a rapid review of foundational knowledge in neuroscience and biology, similar to the reviews students undertake when preparing for the MCAT. We will next look at how to solve scientific reasoning problems and analyze data. Finally, we will virtually manage patients to learn how to use data and foundational knowledge for clinical decision making and patient management.  \nStudent Learning Objectives & Outcomes:  \nAfter completing the course:  \n1) Students will be able to apply basic scientific knowledge to scientific reasoning and problem-solving.  \n2) Students will be able to demonstrate an understanding of the design and execution of research.  \n3) Students will be able to demonstrate data-based and statistical reasoning.  \n4) Students will be able to describe and demonstrate understanding of the steps inpatient management.  \n5) Students will be able to apply basic scientific knowledge to clinical problem solving.  \n6) Students will be able to describe and demonstrate differences in patient  \nmanagement including history taking, differential diagnosis, laboratory tests, diagnosis, and treatment for patients with neurological conditions including dementia and altered mental status disorders, headache and pain disorders, weakness and vision disorders, movement disorders, and psychiatric disorders.  \nRequired Textbooks and Materials:  \nExperiential Medical Reasoning (EMR) Playbook; [Publisher:](Publisher: www.pedegreestudios.com)[ ](Publisher: www.pedegreestudios.com)[www.pedegreestudios.com](Publisher: www.pedegreestudios.com)  \n[Suggested Course Materials:](Suggested Course Materials:) (Optional)  \nOpenStax Biology 2e (free digital textbook); Publisher: [https://openstax.org/](https://openstax.org/)  \nOpenStax Behavioral Neuroscience (free digital textbook); Publisher: [https://openstax.org/](https://openstax.org/)  \n[Technical Requirements for Virtual Experiences:](Technical Requirements for Virtual Experiences:)  \nThis is a hybrid course where, in place of a second lecture each week, students are required to participate in virtual learning c","cbCaip4tjTdRRy8U","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaip4tjTdRRy8U","pdf",158681,1,6,"English","en",105,"# Course Information\n## Schedule\n## Instructor and Contact\n# Course Structure\n## Course Description\n## Course Content\n## Learning Objectives & Outcomes\n# Materials and Requirements\n## Required Textbooks and Materials\n## Suggested Course Materials\n## Technical Requirements for Virtual Experiences\n# Assessment\n## Grading and Assessment\n## Exams","[{\"question\":\"What is the course focus in Experiential Medical Reasoning?\",\"answer\":\"Students learn to apply scientific knowledge to solve problems and reason through clinical scenarios.
