Background: To evaluate the effectiveness of problem based learning among facilitators of this process. Methods: In this descriptive study 44 PBL facilitators (teachers), who were regularly facilitating PBL sessions of first and second year MBBS for one academic year or more, were included. The PBL facilitators were provided with a pretested and validated questionnaire containing five open ended questions regarding their perspective of PBL. Results: Majority (75%) of PBL facilitators were of the view that PBL activity should continue.Twenty three (52.4%) PBL facilitators told that students enjoy the application of their basic knowledge in PBL classes .Twenty (45.5%) PBL facilitators perceived that students showed less interest in PBL because PBL attendance and evaluation is not given any weightage in internal assessment or in professional examination. Twelve (27.3%) teachers told that students skip PBL classes because of burden of tests of other subject. Conclusion: Overall perception of facilitators shows that PBL is a useful activity and should be continued in RMC but measures should be taken to include PBL attendance and evaluation as a part of internal assessment and should be given weightage in university examination to improve its effectiveness and maintain the interest of students.
