The team included a clinical laboratory scientist, midwife,two community nurses, three nurses for vitals and shots, two pharmacists, an insurance agent,and driver. The hospital’s doctor led and organized this team. He was also the one to develop themost effective strategy for seeing patients in periphery villages. For five days, the leadershipinstitute team worked with the medical team to observe how the clinic was being used and togather ideas for improvement.

The course is taught using traditional teaching methods with the introduction tographics concepts and examples in the first hour, and tutoring the homework in the second hour.Students passively absorb the information and work individually to solve the problems. Thelimited class time means that not all students get the immediate help they need. In addition,many of them do not follow up during office or tutoring hours for additional assistance.

The laboratory portion of the course uses twodifferent approaches to ensure the fundamental software skills as well as a clear understanding ofthe implementation challenges. The students were asked to complete individual projects in thefirst half of the course. The project consists of a small residential building which enables studentsto create a model from the beginning to the end in a limited amount of time. Different methods toaddress possible conflicts in design and construction are discussed and simulated in this process.The purpose of this paper is to provide a sample
