Abstract

The historical approach to bioethics education in Croatia includes a period ranging from the introduction of bioethics education to the effort of working out programmatic-methodolog-ical approaches in the analysis and solution of bioethics problems all through to a defining of the basic assumptions for the Rijeka model of bioethics education. The actual approach contains in itself: a comparative illustration of the aims of bioethics education at medical, philosophical and theology schools in Croatia, an illustration of scientific perspectives with which bioethics course contents are realised at the specified schools, defined outcomes of learning, that is, results students at those schools should achieve after the teaching process. The interdisciplinary approach to acquiring knowledge achieved by students’ research work has a dual task: 1. To actualise the responsibility of bioethics teachers for the conception of course contents using which the students will be able to view the ethical perspective of their future calling, and 2. To emphasise the role of the student in independent research of scien-tific and other perspectives of a specific bioethical problem, methods for their solution and application of collected information for the achievement of a consensus and solution of the bioethical problem.
