According to the Moreno text, problem based learning is a method in which students work in collaborative groups to solve complex, ill-defined problems. (Moreno, R. 2010. Educational psychology. Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley & Sons. Ch.8, pg. 13)]]> 2016-02-15 22:51:13 UTC https://padlet.com/hpartlow/b62y0crdjoug/wish/95186245 A problem must be... hpartlow https://padlet.com/hpartlow/b62y0crdjoug/wish/95186924 - complex
- involve critical thinking
- cause the students to make new connections
- multiple answer/ solutions
- able to cover a wide range of abilities and interest
- engage students hands, minds, and hearts
- most of all a problem should be interesting!]]> 2016-02-15 22:59:50 UTC https://padlet.com/hpartlow/b62y0crdjoug/wish/95186924 Why Scaffolding is Important lmccutchan https://padlet.com/hpartlow/b62y0crdjoug/wish/95187000  Effective problem-based learning requires scaffolding. Scaffolding allows the teacher to help the child understand the complex elements of the problem, but its does not give the child the answer. Scaffolding helps the child answer questions such as "why" and "how" a task should be done. ]]> 2016-02-15 23:01:12 UTC https://padlet.com/hpartlow/b62y0crdjoug/wish/95187000 What Makes this Approach Effective? lmccutchan https://padlet.com/hpartlow/b62y0crdjoug/wish/95188105 If implemented correctly, this approach has to the power to facilitate persistent and mindful inquiry. The students are able to understand concepts in a more sophisticated manner. Problem Based Learning allows students to collaborate and bounce ideas off each other. This can create new knowledge connections. ]]> 2016-02-15 23:16:18 UTC https://padlet.com/hpartlow/b62y0crdjoug/wish/95188105 John Dewey hpartlow https://padlet.com/hpartlow/b62y0crdjoug/wish/95188310 "Education is not preparation for life; education is life it self."
